As one who never learned Latin myself, I’m unqualified to teach it. The great blessing of these books for me is that they are teaching me (the teacher) how to teach Latin! Additionally, this is the first curriculum I found to use pictures (beautiful ones!) to teach vocabulary… much like how we learned our first language. At last, I am enjoying teaching Latin, my children are enjoying it, and we are all actually LEARNING it. God bless one and all who put, I’m sure, years of work into it.
This is a beautifully illustrated, enchanting story for children. It was bought as a birthday gift for my 5yo.
This book is very clear, helpful, and visionary on the subject matter. More great material from Doug Wilson.
Very helpful OT introduction. Written at a high school reading level and lots of insights into OT/NT connections and themes. Peter writes exceptionally clear prose and there is no filler. Wonderful read! A+
Amazing message for my boys to hear. Most books today are focused on girls, while Blah Blah let's boys be boys and doesn't encourage them to chop their genitals off. Really good artwork too.
My children absolutely loved this book and the illustrations. The story is really helpful to demonstrate the effects of having a complaining attitude in a way that shows the ugliness of this sin and then points them to a better way. This book was an instant favorite!
Love this one, this reminds me a lot of my son and inspires others to be fun and authentic too.
This instantly became a book the we read over and over again. It felt good to see my son excited about a wholesome story.
Solid Curriculum for the beginner/transitioning school, or the school who does not have access to many Latin teachers. We have used it for at least 5 years, and do not have intentions of changing it yet.
The advertising for this book played it up as if it was encouraging rough and tumble boys to be leaders and protect those around them. In reality it was a very thin version that concept set to the tune of bah bah black sheep lacking substance and direction.
This book is so good, we decided to use it for our men's breakfast study. We've also found it to be a valuable resource for some counseling. We're thankful for Dr. Rigney's ministry and for the great resources from Canon Press. Thank you.
I've been blessed by the sense of adventure this has put into the heart of my young boy's. Every boy should dream of taking to the seas and slaying the dragon that threatens everything you love.
I bought this book for myself, not for a child haha. The illustrations are fantastic, and Rose is solid!
My Son loves this book, and now looks forward to reading every night. This and Crispin's Rainy Day are his favorite books so far.
