Book Review: In Vital Harmony by Karen
Dear Mama,
Happy Monday, everyone! Today, I would like to share with you my thoughts on "In Vital Harmony" by Karen Glass. I just finished reading it and wanted to write about it before I forget or run out of time.
Glass takes all of Charlotte Mason’s principles and combines them into two basic principles under which all the other tenets fall: “Children are born persons” and “Education is the science of relations”.
Glass thoroughly explains how the knowledge of God, Man, and the Universe falls under both of these principles. All subjects are presented through the lens of children who are born persons, and education is the science of relationships. She puts it all together with the concept of “Education is an atmosphere, a discipline, a life”.
Suppose you are having trouble understanding Charlotte Mason. In that case, I highly recommend that you read In Vital Harmony.” If you are curious about the Charlotte Mason method, then I highly recommend you read In Vital Harmony.
Although the Charlotte Mason volumes can be difficult to comprehend, it is worthwhile to read them and see her words for yourself.
That said, In Vital Harmony is definitely a book worth reading every year.
Have you read In Vital Harmony by Karen Glass?
Warmly,
Mirley
