Yep. Latin. Frontus to backus. -- Scott Smith, The Gazette (Colorado Springs), Nov. 1998Anyone who claims Latin is dead should take a look at this book. The translation of Quomodo Invidiosulus nomine Grinchus Christi natalem Abrogaverit reminds us of just how alive Latin can be. -- Kenneth Kitchell, University of Massachusetts at AmherstCertainly the child in every Latinist will be delighted to read this old favorite of Dr. Seuss. -- Ginny Lindzey, Texas Classical AssociationHic liber usui erit non solum professoribus linguae Latinae send quoque discipulis in scholis et universitatibus qui loqui Latin vellent . . . Et quoque Grinchus Latine est bona fabula. -- Alvin P. DobsevageIt's something sill, I thought, and in LATIN, no less Write a review? What to do? I was confused, I confess. But, once I cracked it to take a good look, I saw there was quite a lot to this book. The Latin is easy and spunky and quick and I laughed when the Grinch tried to look like St. Nick. There are plenty of figures of speech in this writing alliteration, assonance and onomatopoeia are there for the citing. And for those who like a word list near re ought to be MORE! They reminds us that Latin does not just survive It's ALIVE and it needs us to help it to thrive. So three cheers for the Tunbergs, Dr. Seuss, and Bolchazy! For without them, I think, we could all become lazy. -- Margaret BruciaJennifer and Terence Tunberg have succeeded in rendering a modern myth in lively, impeccable Latin, accompanied by the charming illustrations of the original Dr. Seuss story. -- John Traupman, author of Conversational LatinSplendid translation . . . It is Latin indeed! -- Jozef Ijsewijn, Katholicke Universiteit LeuvenThe Grinch W
