Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Practice Reader
My son requested a book in Latin to read. I was so happy to find this one. He is able to read it aloud and understand all of it because he is already familiar with the story. What a fun way to review Latin.




Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - This is a PAPERBACK
A wonderful idea--my high school son in AP Latin LOVED the book! BUT--for the price, I just assumed it was a hard-cover book. I didn't realize it was a paperback until I received it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - optimum librum
multum gaudium ex hoc libro excepi; multas gratias Guineverae et Terentio Tunberg ago. oportet omnes lingua Latina fruentes hunc librum emere. lingua Latina iam vivit!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Classic story of inspiration

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Latin alive and fun!
The glossary included in this book is awesome. You will not find a word in the story that is not included. The classic favorite has all of the illustrations we remember from childhood - while the Latin text allows you to practice, and keep building your vocabulary and reading skills. What a wonderful way to bring Latin to your children!
