We were saddened to learn of Ruth Beechick's death in late 2013. Ruth was a lifelong teacher, both in the classroom and as a curriculum writer. She was a mentor to the late Debbie Strayer, author of our Trail Guide to Learning series. Ruth's teaching philosophies heavily influenced Debbie's and helped shape the Trail Guide to Learning series. Ruth will be greatly missed. To honor Ruth and her contributions to homeschooling, we are giving away a copy of three of her books: The Three R's, You Can Teach Your Child Successfully, and Dr. Beechick's Homeschool Answer Book.

Be sure to use the Rafflecopter widget below to let us know that you’ve commented. Contest ends at 11:59 PM on Wednesday, February 5 and is open to U.S. residents only.

    I have only read some of “the 3 r’s”but want to read more. I feel that since homeschooling for 5 years now i am more settled and understand things a bit more and will understand things written by Ruth a bit more.

    Her books were some of the first I read that actually encouraged me and didn’t discourage me. Love them.

    Unfortunately I have not heard about, or read anything from Ruth. After reading some quotes from her today, I will be looking out for her books.

    I have only read snippets and quotes from online, those few were enough to inspire me and give me the courage to do something different.
