Amazon review - 19 Feb 2009
***** Thorough, very thorough This book (series) does what it says on the tin, and does it well. There are some boring Latin books still around - this is not one of them. I used the series very successfully with year 4-6 pupils as part of their preparation for Common Entrance. Would recommend without any reservations.

What prep schools have been waiting for! This is an introduction to Latin embracing the tried and trusted rigour of Wilding - and all carefully tailored for today's child and today's Common Entrance syllabus.

Latin Prep is the best Latin program for my family. The humor is perfect. The grammar is just enough. The exercises can be silly which makes it fun for the children and takes away the mundane of other programs. My daughter has learned so much and is very confident in her Latin ability. My 9 year old son is in Chapter 4 of Book 1 and having a great time. Today he easily did exercise 4.3 with no help from me and by just looking at them. He got them all correct. Language is not his thing but Latin with this book comes easily. Last year he worked through Latin for Children A and all he learned was some vocabulary. He learned no grammar because it was poorly explained and there was very little in the way of translating sentences. As you can see I cannot recommend Latin Prep enough.

I'm using Latin Prep Book I with my two boys, ages 10 & 12, and we're loving it. We've used other programs before this, but Latin Prep is the most fun while also the most rigorous of the Latin series we've tried. I had six years of Latin in junior and high school, and am so excited to re-learn it with my kids.

Kristian Waite, Caterham School - 27 May 2005
After years of frustration with the Cambridge Latin Course, how great at last to use a course that isn't ashamed to get its teeth into the grammar early. Bright children are reassured by grammar rules, don't mind reciting puella and rego from the word go, and like to know that they're going somewhere. The vast majority of my classes look like they will be sticking with Latin to GCSE and I'm sure it's because they know how much solid ground they have covered in so short a time. The Latin Prep books are ideal to pin the learning around, they pace the work well, and they don't patronise, or shirk the tricky bits!
