Minimus is a fun little guy! He lives in a house with a Roman Britain family and their cat Vibrissa. The storylines are fun, simple enough to keep the student's interest, yet provide a good challenge and introduces simple grammar rules.
There is a pupil's book, a Teacher Resource Book, and an Audio CD to help with pronunciation. The recommendation for age is 7 and up.
I also like that there is a website for Website for Minimus complete with games, activities, and a multitude of resources. Minimus really does make Latin cool!
We used Minimus for 3rd grade. The story starts out with a a cartoon that is easy to translate, and the story is cute. There are Vocabulary lists for each lesson and various snippets of Roman History and culture throughout the book.
