Over half of the English language is derived from
Latin.unicorn-corn, hornhumble-humus, earthgregarious-grex,
flockpantry-p nis, breadflamingo-flamma, flameThese and thousands
of other words we use every day keep this "dead" language-a
language of kings and poets, of scrolls and secrets-alive. And this
means that when we study Latin, we're not just learning about
Rome-we're learning about ourselves. Rediscover this time-honored
language, which led classical education innovator Dorothy Sayers to
declare that "Latin should be begun as early as possible . . . when
the chanting of 'am, am s, amat' is as ritually agreeable to the
feelings as the chanting of 'eeny, meeny, miney, moe.'"In Latin
Primer 3, the language basics explored in Primers 1 and 2 continue,
with an increasing emphasis on translation. Revised and expanded,
this text introduces students (grades 5 and up) to Latin's final
noun declensions and verb conjugations, as well as to perfect
tense, indirect objects, simple prepositions, and more, opening up
broad frontiers for their understanding and enjoyment of this early
language. This updated Teacher's Edition includes new teacher's
notes, new weekly quizzes, an English-Latin glossary, and a
Latin-English glossary.
Alexandra Chambers' well organized and well defined life had put
her on a path to fall in love with wrong man at the wrong time. Tad
Pierce defined Washington, D.C. Tired of his manipulations and
abuse, Alex sought to distance herself from him. By accepting a
position in the last place she expected, Ashmore Valley offered
peace, serenity and a new start. All of the things she desperately
needed. And all of the things she never expected to experience.
James O'Reilly's soon to be ex-wife's treachery had destroyed any
chance any woman had of breaching his defenses again. Accepting a
meaningless affair with his secretary, Francine Malone, he thought
that by satisfying his lust, he could ignore his heart. When
Alexandra Chambers looked at him with those eyes, he was lost and
he knew it. Alex wasn't ready for another man to be in control of
her and James wasn't ready to entrust his heart to another woman.
But somehow, through the turmoil that a jealous Tad inflicts on the
couple, they fight for the happiness that they so rightly deserve.
They accept the roses that love brings and the thorns that jealousy
breeds.

Rediscover this time-honored language, which led classical
education pioneer Dorothy Sayers to declare that "Latin should be
begun as early as possible ... when the chanting of "Amo, amas,
amat" is as ritually agreeable to the feelings as the chanting of
"eeny, meeny, miney, moe." In Latin Primer 2, Martha Wilson
strengthens elementary school students (grades 4 and up) in the
basics they discovered in Latin Primer 1, and leads them steadily
into new territory. Revised and expanded, this text spotlights the
fundamentals of classical Latin: vocabulary for everyday
experiences like names of animals; verb and noun endings; adjective
and adverb use; questions and commands; and other early grammar
essentials. This updated Teacher's Edition includes new teacher's
notes, weekly quizzes, and a full glossary.
