Book Review Policies

I accept a limited number of books for review. If you have a book you would like to have considered for review here at Hope Is the Word, please contact me at hopeistheword (at) gmail (dot) com. However, I accept such review books on the condition that I will only complete it and review it if I like it. :-) I review for TOS HomeschoolCrew, so some books and other educational products are sent to me free of charge through this position. Most of the book images linked here are linked through my Amazon Associates account. I receive a small compensation for purchases made through my blog. However, may I suggest checking with your local library first? Supporting libraries is always my recommendation. :-)
