5.0 out of 5 stars It Even Rhymes!, 29 Oct 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Cattus Petasatus: The Cat in the Hat in Latin (Hardcover)
This is really good, especially if you already have 'The Cat in the Hat'. It rhymes in Latin, as it does in the English version, so is consequently not exactly the same as the english version with respect to each exact line, but the story is the same, set in the same pictures as the English version! It has got a dictionary at the back if you aren't fluent in Latin! I would also reccomend this book for older children, especially if they are studying Latin, as it is more interesting than the average Lain text studied in School!
