She didn’t want a governess at all. Now she’s forced to hire TWO, just because they both expect it?
With her husband leaving for a transatlantic voyage, Helen knows she isn’t “qualified” to teach six high-energy students in his place. That doesn’t vanquish her urge to try. After all, who could love her children more—or grasp Frank’s vision better—than Helen herself?
A pair of prestigious teachers with diametrically-opposed philosophies are about to threaten her rosy ideal. Neither of them seems to grasp the one educational principle Helen and Frank actually care about. But neither has anywhere else to go if Helen turns them down.
Will rival governesses tear her schoolroom to pieces? Does Helen have the courage to reach out with compassion—and still hold onto Frank’s original dream? And when an unforeseen disaster puts their anchor to the test, will a motto about God’s glory be enough to steer her children through the storm?
Combining the classic vibes of an authentic 19th century novel with a squeaky-clean content rating and a loveable cast of characters, Hazelby Priors is the story of a Victorian family dedicated to Christian home education, over a century before the modern homeschooling movement began.
