About Our Notebook Companions™

"I am in love with the Julia Rothman books but wasn’t sure how to go about incorporating them into our homeschool day. Enter Daily Skill Building Notebook. This journal is amazing. The amount of time that must have gone into building this notebook is unbelievable. The Farm book was the first one I purchased and I was so blown away I knew I had to get the Ocean and Food Anatomy journals as well. My 11 and 14 year olds have really enjoyed these journals! I highly recommend them!" - K. Roberts
"Our family loves the Julia Rothman books! I’ve had them on my shelf for a while, but was unsure of how to incorporate them into our homeschool day. The addition of a notebooking journal has made all the difference. We have the complete set and my kids love it!" - Shelly
"I know this is geared toward younger students, but I’m having my 10th grader use it and it’s been phenomenal. Some kids are more science driven, he is not, so it’s been a perfect supplement to add to our science curriculum. Even I’m learning new things with the Julia Rothman books. I will definitely pick another notebook once he finishes this one." - Melissa
"...This was a game-changer and really catered to her learning style. She has ADHD and has always struggled to read and do workbooks. This was an absolute delight for her to read and work through. We will definitely be purchasing all the books and notebooks available in this collection." - Amber Harris

"I am so in love with this product...The amount of activities you can extend is beyond limit. This companion has exceeded our expectations. We use it in our nature walks . My kids love it." - Lata
"My 9 year old wants to be a Naturalist when she grows up. She took about 4 months to complete Ocean Anatomy and can now hold full conversations with ADULTS who work in Marine Biology. I am often asked how my daughter knows so much about nature science and I send them to these notebooks. My art loving daughter loves the layout of each page and it helps retaining the knowledge inside the book. We print them out and stick them in a 3 ring binder. She feels so proud after completing a full binder and we have wonderful drawings as keepsakes!." - C. Lyons
"I’m so exited to add this to our homeschool curriculum lineup. I ordered the Anatomy Notebook Collection, and it looks awesome! I’m so grateful for these wonderful notebooks so that my kids can read and glean information from wonderful books like the Julia Rothman Collection. Thank you for the work you do setting up these notebooks!" - K. Roberts
"Our middle schooler isn’t a huge fan of school, but he loves visiting the ocean! He fancies himself something of a marine biologist, so when we saw Ocean Anatomy and this accompanying workbook, we gave it a go. This workbook helps walk you through the Julia Rothman text – you’ll definitely need it – letting student re-create drawings and write notes from the text to help reinforce concepts covered…..and he loved it!" - Yvie
"Journaling/Notebooking is such a great way to solidify information learned and the layout of the Nature Notebook makes it inviting. There is just the right combo of writing and artwork! My daughter loves it." - Koleiah
"...I’m particularly impressed at the effort he puts into his drawings in the notebook. Thank you for these lovely notebooks. It’s really made my life a lot easier and awesome to see the learning happening in our home." - CT
"We are homesteaders and have farm animals. I’ve had the Julia Rothman series on our bookself for a long time, but struggled to incorporate it into our homeschool day in a way that would engage my kids. This is it! Thank you for making these companion guides." - Lucy Wallis
"We love the beautiful Julia Rothman books! My children have been working through the notebooks for Nature, Farm, and Ocean Anatomy, but I wanted to work through Food Anatomy…just as mom-learning. I am very impressed at the quality of these notebooks and how much they help the student to retain! By writing notes and drawing the graphics into your notebook, it helps the brain cover the information in more ways, thus ensuring you’re more likely to remember it." - Yvie

I Love How It's One-Page a Day!
