Santiago now faces the supreme ordeal of his life as an agonizing battle ensues to wear down the fish in order to kill it with a harpoon.

"I have been homeschooling for seven years and have used curriculum from AOP every year. I started with it when my two older children were in preschool and kindergarten. I am now homeschooling four children. It is so nice to know that AOP is there with so many great products to make my life easier as a homeschooler! Thanks AOP!"

"I have just completed my order with AOP for our homeschooling materials for the next school year. For the first time in the two years I have been homeschooling our three boys, I feel a complete peace and excitement for the school year to come. As many homeschoolers do, I have researched and tried many of the homeschooling products available. Indeed, the choices are endless. However, I have finally found a curriculum with AOP that fits our family's values, goals, learning styles, and lifestyle. Thank you for offering quality products at such an affordable price. We look forward to many years of learning with AOP and the blessings that are sure to come. God bless you all at AOP!"
