Description
Well, the name says it all. Complementing the Miller Family Series, this reproducible (for your family) workbook provides an opportunity to focus on one character quality, apply scripture, revisit a "Miller" story, and enjoy some language arts applications (i.e. antonyms, synonyms, parts of speech). Adaptable for the multiple ages typically found in a family, plan to spend about a week on each of the 50 character qualities. A thesaurus and answer key are in the back. 60 pgs, pb ~ Janice
Category Description for The Millers
Join the Miller children in true stories that can be used for study, for family devotions, or for reading as a family. Character building stories use verses from Scripture to drive home respect, responsibility, obedience, kindness, and humility. The pictures are black and white and reflect the Mennonite lifestyle. ~Amber

Character Companion is GREAT for the Whole Family
We've enjoyed ALL the Miller bikes over the past 35 years as we've homeschooled our 13 children. I ordered this Character Compassion to review with our youngest daughter. She's 13 and a bit old for this book so I've added activities like writing her own definition of the character trait, find biblical examples, and essays to challenge her. I just knew we'd enjoy this review before starting high school next year. This book can be used by a wide range of ages as you can see.

Why did you choose this?
Would someone please share the Table of Contents?
Do we need to purchase all the Miller books to use with this companion workbook ( does it reference all the books or just some of them)?
You do not need all the books. Each lesson applies to at least 2 books. Sometimes 4! I only have "Storytime with the Millers" and was able to use it just fine, however some lessons weren't used.
My daughter enjoyed reading the Millers Mission book and Wisdom. I believe she will be interested in the others too.
The Lord has been reminding me to focus more on His Word and character and the academics will follow. My child enjoyed Wisdom and the Millers so I feel these additions will be very beneficial.
to help build Godly character in our home
Hoping this can help with our character training
