Ten charmingly illustrated Latin stories—with facing notes and full vocabulary—about an enterprising dancing monkey, Pilosus Naso. His adventures introduce students to classic tales with a twist, from the Odyssey to Petronius' Cena Trimalchionis. A proven ancillary reader that keeps students excited about reading Latin.
