Books I read in 2007, in no particular order, just as I happen to remember them. Some I liked, others disliked.
War and Peace - Leo Tolstoy (long, but interesting)
Endangered Minds, Why Children Don't Think and What We Can Do About It - Jane Healy (excellent)
All Creatures Great and Small - James Herriott
Protect and Defend - Vince Flynn (page turner)
The Once and Future King - T.H. White (King Arthur Legend)
Ivanhoe - Sir Walter Scott (as a fan of all things Scottish I found this surprisingly dull)
Mr. Midshipman Easy - Captain Marryat (fantastic)
The Kite Runner - Khaled Hosseini (absolutely fascinating)
Thanks to the great ladies at Ambleside Online for many recommendations, I would never have found some of these titles without your help.

Sunflower's Four will explore a myriad of topics including but not limited to homeschooling, Charlotte Mason Style; students with learning difficulties, dyslexia particularly; reading, British Literature mostly; animals, Black Hereford cows specifically; and current political hot topics controversially. We are a homeschooling family of four with our faces turned toward the Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Psalm 91
"He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, 'My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust!'
For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper, and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings you may seek refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark.
You will not be afraid of the terror by night, or of the arrow that flies by day; of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, or of the destruction that lays waste at noon. A thousand shall fall at your right hand and ten thousand at your side, but it shall not approach you. You will only look on with your eyes, and see the recompense of the wicked. For you have made the Lord, my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place. No evil will befall you, nor will any plague come near your tent.
For He will give His angels charge concerning you, to guard you in all your ways. They will bear you up in their hands, lest you strike your foot against a stone. You will tread upon the lion and cobra, the young lion and the serpent you will trample down.
Because he has loved Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him securely on high, because he has known My name. He will call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him, and honor him. With a long life I will satisfy him, and let him behold My salvation."
