I'll be honest and say it's NOT a "Catholic" vendor. Seton has MCP books but they are the older 1994 (I think) books. I just finished my second year with homeschooling and using CHC. My first year CHC had the older books, but then last year they switch to the newer MCP books. The vendor I found sells the newer MCP books AND teacher manuals.

I'm workin...we love behold and see 3 from CHC. I'm working on my plans for next year. I'm going to use behold and see 3 again, because we didn't "finish" it. I'm also found an alternative vendor that sells MCP level D books and teacher manual. As you know CHC after MCP level C switches to Saxon. We really like the MCP books and I can't see spending the money they want for saxon when I can still get MCP books for under $20 a piece. <br /><br />I'm working out the rest but that's a good start I think :)Nichole "Nikki" Warrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09375907795300179867noreply@blogger.com
