As a father of many homeschooled children, due to a demanding job, I only have a 30,000-foot understanding of how they actually learn, as my wife carries that burden. However, I do know that, while Mrs. Adfero has always tried to keep up with the kids' Latin courses, it was never a core subject that must be completed every day.
Then, we were sent the Little Latin Readers.
At first, Mrs. Adfero was hesitant to even look at a new product, with the start of a new school year just a few weeks away. But she did, as the creators sent us a package, and she felt obligated. But that hesitancy quickly turned to excitement. So much so that she changed course at the last minute and now a number of our children will be using these Readers exclusively for their Latin studies this year.
While I am not qualified to go deeply into this tool, here are some key features to know:
(Keep reading to get 15% off in an exclusive Rorate reader discount!)
- - Little Latin Readers connects students to their Catholic heritage by incorporating grammar, Sacred Scripture and our Catholic tradition at every level.

- - Each level includes Small Format Reader, Workbook, Drill Book and downloadable audio pronunciation and exercises usable across all devices.
- - Teacher's Manual comes with tests, quizzes, answer keys and detailed lesson plans.
