The True Story of Noah's Ark


Tom Dooley - 2003
    The plan: destroy the wickedness of the world. The man: Noah. How would you feel if you knew that God was going to destroy the world, and you had been chosen out of millions of people to continue the human race? This book is not just Sunday school material for kids, but the thrilling adventure of Noah comes to life through the dazzling, detailed illustrations and the exciting True Story of Noah s Ark. The images of the interior of Noah s ark are like nothing you ve ever seen before. The people and cities depicted here are certainly more advanced than what you ve been led to believe - these people weren t cavemen! They invented metals and musical instruments; they were skilled craftsmen; they built grand cities -all before the Flood. And this is not fiction - it s all biblically and historically based. This book can be a fantastic evangelistic tool because it comes directly from the multi-media presentation of author Tom Dooley, who uses it to witness to multitudes of people across America every week."

This provides a solid foundation in grammar before moving on to more advanced language and Latin skills. Prima Latina is an ideal precursor to Latina Christiana, as the vocabulary and format are similar to the Latina Christiana I text. Prima Latina is accompanied by an audio CD which includes pronunciation direction. Latina Christiana I flashcards are an ideal study aid for Prima Latina and a great investment for the parent who intends to use Latina I and II as successor courses.
