A home filled with books is a home filled with connection.

Let’s grow readers, writers, and relationships that last a lifetime!



The books you read and the lessons you teach matter—but the family culture you create matters most.

And a family culture of reading creates life-long readers.

Let’s be families that reach for books over screens.

Let’s take reading instruction beyond apps and worksheets.

Let’s create a family culture of reading.


This is your invitation to find the joy of Bookish homeschooling, inside…

The Literary Lounge feels like a hug of encouragement for the things I’m doing well with my kids, and a helping hand on the things I’m lacking in all at the same time!
-Amy

FAQs

This is for parents of kids in any grade! Whatever ages your kids are, there are book recommendations, resources, and tips that will help you teach language arts in your home.

There are resources in the VIP resource library for PreK-12. So you get language arts for the WHOLE FAMILY in one place!

At the basic level, you’re getting support for language arts in your homeschool. You’ll get the Lit List curated book lists, PDF e-books, video teachings, and the In the Margins podcast, etc. Plus the live calls where you can ask questions and get support for your homeschool.

At the VIP level, you’ll get all of those things PLUS all of my language arts resources for PreK-12 (and future language arts resources that are created!). You will also get the Whole Family Learning courses that will teach you how to take books and turn them into a unit study, so that you don’t need to buy curriculum. Plus you’ll get The Flourishing Family course, to grow your family relationships!

When you register, you will be asked to create a username and password (or log in with your current username and password). You can immediately access the membership via the login page. You will also receive an email with all the information you need. You can always find the login page in the dropdown menu at the top of the website.

When you become a member, you’ll have immediate access to the membership page. When you’re logged in, you’ll be able to download and print PDFs, stream videos, listen to the podcast, get links to live calls, and access The Lit List with the curated book lists.

VIPs will also have immediate access to the PreK-12 resource library and Whole Family Learning course.

Nothing will be mailed to you, which means you get instant access to everything.

You will have access as long as your membership is active.

You can work through everything inside the membership at your own pace. If you miss the live calls, you can watch the replays on your own time. So it takes as much time as you want to put into it! The courses inside the VIP membership will take some extra time to work through, but again – they are self-paced; so you can binge the videos and watch them quickly or spread them out and watch over a period of weeks or months! It’s all up to you. :)

This is a recurring subscription, so you will be billed according to which membership level you choose – either quarterly or annually. You may cancel at any time on the membership page (within your account information), and your access will go through the end of the pay period.

Due to the nature of digital products, I do not offer refunds. You may cancel your subscription at any time, and your access will go through the end of the pay period.
