Shelf-educated
Charlotte Mason said, “The most common and the monstrous defect in the education of the day is that children fail to acquire the habit of reading.” She also said, “There is no education but self-education.” Therefore, if we want to raise children who understand the power and importance of self-education, we must first raise children who acquire the habit of turning to their bookshelves for such education. In other words, we must raise shelf-educated children.
Enjoy reminding yourself of this hearty truth from the O.G. herself every time you glance at your shelf or wall—wherever you place this fine piece of artful inspiration.
