Oxford, Ohio, March 1, 2012 - Local resident and author Laura Huber will be reading excerpts from her latest books, The ABC's of Homeschooling and The Life Planner - Discovering Yourself and Achieving Your Goals at the Oxford Community Arts Center Second Friday event on March 9th at 7:00 pm. The reading will be followed by a brief discussion and book signing concluding by 7:50.

published in Home Education Magazine, among other places. 

“My books are to empower parents,” Huber says….”to give parents the confidence they need to empower their children.” The ABC’s of Homeschooling is packed with information from the importance of setting a good example, encouraging helping with chores, exploring the imagination, to making sure children get proper nutrition. Tips and ideas for easy and fun ways to homeschool your children will also be discussed.

The ABC's of Homeschooling was published in November of 2011, by Telemachus Press Publishing Company. Through gentle life lessons and personal experiences Laura teaches parents what it takes to raise happy, independent children in a fun and orderly atmosphere. With quotes from Aristotle to Einstein, this book is quick, fun and easy to read.

The Life Planner - Discovering Yourself and Achieving Your Goals was also published in November of 2011, by Telemachus Press Publishing Company as a companion to Huber’s homeschooling book but can be used alone also. The Life Planner is an indispensible tool to help organize all aspects of one’s life and determine which goals are most important.
