Well, I'm dating myself here, because this edition of Cathy Duffy's book probably came out before your kids were born! That's right, it's the 1995 edition. Wow! Where did those years go? In a blur of homeschooling, of course.
You probably know about Cathy Duffy's work, including her latest, 100 Top Picks For Homeschool Curriculum: Choosing The Right Curriculum And Approach For Your Child's Learning Style. She has a well-deserved reputation for searching out and reviewing awesome homeschooling books and curriculum.
This book is one of her earlier efforts. I imagine a fair amount of the contact info in this book is outdated. Some of the curriculum she writes about is no longer available new (though it's a lot easier these days to track down used books) or has changed. So why would you want a book like this?
Simple. She includes a lot of timeless advice about homeschooling your preteens and teens. She shares a wealth of information about preparing a homeschooled teen for college. She includes reproducible charts and forms (high school planning chart, transcript form, schedule and assignment sheets ....even a real job application) for you to use while doing junior high or high school with your child. And she knows what she's talking about because she homeschooled her three sons to adulthood.
This book is softcover, was printed in 1995, has about 350 pages and is in excellent condition. Sorry, this one's sold.
