An interesting and unique look at a subject frequently denoted as being tedious. It's madcap and out-there and that is exactly what makes it work so beautifully. I thoroughly enjoyed it and was entertained by the lightheartedness and wit throughout its pages.

"How to Teach Classics to Your Dog" is an amusing book, but my dog wasn't impressed at all and I'm sure she would fail the Classic GCSE. Still, I got this book for me, not my dog, and I enjoyed it. I probably wouldn't pass the GCSE either, but I got a lot out of this book - including an urge to follow up several subjects and learn more. This is a book that leaves you feeling a little more educated - enough to realise how much you are missing.

My thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley. This review was written voluntarily and is entirely my own, unbiased, opinion.
