We are a home school family that offer wonderful books and products. We enjoy the people we meet and the customers we serve. For 10+ years, I (Jody Robertson) have been a consultant with Usborne Books And More. The books have been such a belssing to our family and to so many other familes too. Consequently, my children enjoy the books and like it when the UPS driver comes with another box of books. We often offer savings and wouldlove to service your needs. Please contact us if you have questions or need suggestions (from babies, to even a few I highly suggest for adutls). I enjoy helping kids find books they enjoy, even the relunctant readers! Since I am a busy homeschool mom that puts family first, I rely heavily on word-of-mouth for our business.

*note – Usborne offers a lot of non-fiction and historical fiction titles. There are some teachings of evolution in some of the books, but it is not overdone and we use it to teach them how to talk to others about this topic.

Guests to Gamble Place can step back in time to experience the same pristine environment that James Gamble found so inviting during his first visit to the area in the late 1800′s. James N. Gamble, of the Procter and Gamble Company and a long time winter resident of Daytona Beach, bought this land on Spruce Creek for use as a rural retreat. Photo: Guests to Gamble Place can step inside an exact replica of Snow White’s Cottage.

Educational tours of the grounds and buildings built by Gamble and his family will be offered to the public by the Museum of Arts and Sciences Fridays and Saturdays from 10am to 3pm with guided house tours at 10am, 12pm and 2pm. Tours are $6 for adults, $5 for seniors and $3 for children 6 to 17; children 5 and under and MOAS members will be admitted for free. Dress like your favorite Disney Princess and you will be admitted to Gamble Place for FREE!

Usborne Books and More

DiscoverFunLearning — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 23:45:13 +0000

Greetings! My family and I have come to deeply appreciate Usborne books (and more) and the astonishing fact that there are always new books to spark our interests. We sometimes call ourselves book junkies. I (Jody) did not grow up enjoying books and reading so I am eager to help kids love books from baby-hood, to young adult. In a way, I am making up for lost time. I see how my disregard for sitting down to read a good book, has impacted me through the years. I struggled in school and believe if I had developed a zeal for opening up a book and [completely] reading it, some of my struggles may have been avoided. These are amazing books and my family loves them… enjoys reading them, thrilled with the insightful illustrations, and we remember the information. Contact us for suggestions that suit your requests.
