Telling Tales in Latin: A New Latin Course and Storybook for Children: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Telling Tales in Latin: A New Latin Course and Storybook for Children" wrote himself).

Telling Tales in Latin teaches Latin through the magic of storytelling. Narrated by the chatty and imaginative Roman poet Ovid (who lived in the Rome of the first century B.C), this new course takes young learners on a journey through some of the tales from Ovids Metamorphoses. Along the way, they pick up Latin words and grammar, explore the connections between Latin and English and discover how Ovids stories still speak to us today.
Each chapter introduces one of Ovids much-loved stories, encouraging children to begin reading Latin immediately while exploring the literary and mythic context of the stories. At the end of each chapter there are suggested activities to help learners to think about what they have just read, and to understand how the stories connect to ideas and issues that are still relevant today, from relationships with others and philosophy, to science and caring for the planet.
Soham Des illustrations bring Ovids stories alive for a wide range of learners and make learning Latin a colourful journey of discovery. Telling Tales in Latin outlines how Latin is the basis for English grammar, unlocking the complexities of learning English (and other languages) along the way. It also contains the vocabulary and grammar needed for the OCR Entry Level Latin qualification, making this book the ideal first introduction to Latin.

Hello! My name is Ovid, and I lived in a city called Roma a very long time ago over two thousand years ago, in fact, in the first century B.C. Back then, everyone in Roma spoke a language called Latin, and the Roman empire was a mighty one, spreading its ways and language to many countries all over the world.

Just as Nature is separating things into different groups, lets split up the word types in the story into groups. You may know that words for things are called nouns, words for doing/being are verbs, and words describing things are adjectives. There is also a group of words called prepositions, which tell you about where something is. These come before a noun and are words like with, in and on.

There are lots of different stories which explain the beginning of the world. Now scientists have made discoveries that give us a clearer idea of what happened at the start of the universe. In ancient times, though, people used their imaginations to make up stories instead. Can you write your own version of what might have happened at the beginning of the world? You could make it an explosion of vivid colour and full of action, using lots of different adjectives and verbs! Or perhaps you have a completely different idea
