After years of using HOD and reading this board I have finally joined! We have used Little Hands, Little Hearts, and Beyond and this year are looking foward to using Bigger. We love HOD! Since I will have 4 kids in Bigger do I need 4 copies of R&S English or can I get away with them sharing one copy? We are looking foward to getting back into the school routine toward the end of August so I am trying to order the few remaining things I need.
Thanks,
Kristin

Hi Kristin! Welcome to the HOD boards! 
I guess I'm kinda the opposite. I've been a part of the boards for a while, but am new to using HOD. This Aug. will be our first time using HOD and we're so excited. I just wanted to say hi and welcome to the boards. We're glad to have you here! I don't know that it would be a problem for your children to share the book, but that might be hard seeing that there would be four kids trying to share one book. If you want to try to have them share, maybe getting two student books and having two children share one book, and then the other two share the other student book, might work! Even if you decided to get four student books, it wouldn't be too bad considering that R&S books are very economical to buy.
Blessings as you decide what to do, and as you begin your new year with HOD!
In Christ,
Lisa

Hi Kristen! Welcome to the HOD Board! We too have loved using HOD for many years, and I think you will enjoy this board too. I am so glad you joined! I agree with the pp that although you wouldn't have to have an extra book of R & S English, since you have 4 dc using it, I think it would be worth having 2 copies and having pairs share. We enjoyed Bigger Hearts so much with our oldest and are now getting to enjoy it again with our middle ds. I'm especially enjoying Eggleston - he just knows how to tell a story. Anyway, I look forward to getting to know you here!
In Christ,
Julie

I just wanted to pop-in and let you know we're glad to "see" you here! How fun that you've been traveling the HOD path already for years! We will have much in common! I look forward to visiting with you more this upcoming year!
Blessings,
