Bought this in conjunction with Cambridge book

Love that this is designed for kids to learn how to use Latin in everyday life. I bought this in conjunction with the Cambridge Latin course which is more stuffy, but very good. My goal is to teach my kids Latin before they hit puberty so that when they learn other European languages, they’ll find those easier. And if they become gardeners, florists, vets, doctors or lawyers, they’ll also have an easier time translating and understanding the terms! I found it so much easier to learn other languages after learning Latin at school, it’s a win win for us!

Entertainment for adult beginners

As an adult beginner, you may not like this as a book written for children. It has bright, lively cartoons of characters speaking the same phrases that you can find in any beginners' conversational, modern language book, but in latin. But, if you want just fifty pages of simple, fun learning about how to say, for example, "do you speak Latin? Yes, I speak a little Latin", then this is the book for you. The website has some interesting extension information about the Roman world. As other reviewers have said, you won't get a thorough introduction to the language from this, but you will learn a little vocabulary and grammar. As an adult, you can have a little entertainment, and a break from the serious beginner books, and who says you can't?p.s. It is irritating when publishers advertise how you can speak the language on your travels, though. Okay use the same format as modern languages, but bother to change the advertising copy.

Useful book for Ancient Roman projects to give a rounded view of a historical subject.

Cartoon style illustrations show everyday phrases in use with pronunciation tips and grammar. Really good for starting out, includes rules of grammar, pronunciation tips, word lists and puzzles to help practice, links to websites with video clips and classroom activities make this a useful book for Ancient Roman projects to give a rounded view of a historical subject and in English to explore the roots of words.

Good for basics

This is a good start for anyone wishing to learn a bit of Latin. It adopts the same methodology as modern languages are taught in school, ie starts with simple questions, sentences and phrases rather than concentrating on syntax grammar as Latin used to be taught. Whether this is the best approach or not really depends on the individual but this book will at least give you the basics.
