A Latin reader like no other. Legonium is both a town and a tale. It is a town built entirely from LEGO® bricks, and filled with an incredible cast of characters. There is Marcellus, the struggling artist; Augustus, the bank manager; Miranda, the police officer; Monas Bricvir, the private detective; plus a suspicious character spotted on the roof of the town bank; and, of course, Pico, the cat.And it is a tale told completely in Latin, with a full range of grammatical structures, repetition of vocabulary, hundreds of pictures, and a supplementary English translation. There is a police chase, a trip to Pompeii, a talkative parrot, and a mysterious suitcase.

"Joe Dator makes me laugh. Everybody loves to look behind the scenes and his new book shows the secrets, inspirations, heartaches, and triumphs of a life in cartoons. Christopher Guest and I have a collection of original cartoons, and we love our Joe Dator!" —Jamie Lee Curtis From inspiration to conception and all the trials in-between. Inked is a collection of cartoons from one of the New Yorker’s most beloved cartoonists. Filled with more than 150 of Dator’s single-panel cartoons, this lively, quick-witted book betrays a deadpan sense of humor. But Inked is more than a book of cartoons. Dator also dives into the creative process, offering bonus commentary on how ideas have come to fruition, how one idea has led to another, and the various attempts to get an idea right. Along the way, he shows how a spark of imagination has turned into a laugh-out-loud moment with only a single image and caption, and how other attempts have found themselves on the cutting-room floor.
Teaches children the basics of Latin grammar and vocabulary, as well as Roman British history and culture, through vocabulary lists, mythical tales, and illustrations.
Building on and updating some of the issues addressed in Starting to Teach Latin, Steven Hunt provides a guide for novice and more experienced teachers of Latin in schools and colleges, who work with adapted and original Latin prose texts from beginners' to advanced levels. It draws extensively on up-to-date theories of second language development and on multiple examples of the practices of real teachers and students. Hunt starts with a detailed look at deductive, inductive and active teaching methods, which support teachers in making the best choices for their students' needs and for their own personal preferences, but goes on to organise the book around the principles of listening, reading, speaking and writing Latin. It is designed to be informative, experimental and occasionally provocative. The book closes with two chapters of particular contemporary interest: 'Access, Diversity and Inclusion' investigates how the subject community is meeting the challenge of teaching Latin more equitably in today's schools; and 'The Future' offers some thoughts on lessons that have been learnt from the experiences of online teaching practices during the Covid-19 lockdowns. Practical examples, extensive references and a companion website at www.stevenhuntclassics.com are included. Teachers of Latin will find this book an invaluable tool inside and outside of the classroom.
This book is a graded Latin reader of four Greek myths (Perseus, Heracles, Jason and the Argonauts, and Ulysses) originally composed by Francis Ritchie. Facing each page of the Latin text is a single page of corresponding vocabulary and grammatical commentary. Once readers have memorized the core vocabulary list, they will be able to read the Latin text and consult all relevant vocabulary and grammatical notes without turning a page.
Getting Started with Latin is divided into simple lessons that explain the fundamentals of Latin grammar in a way that anyone can grasp.
