"n?n possum tibi n?bere. Ulix?s meus n?n est mortuus..."

Penelope has a problem. Twenty years ago, her husband Ulysses, king of the island of Ithaca, left their island home to fight in the Trojan War. For twenty long years, Penelope has waited patiently for her husband's return. When word gets out that Ulysses is dead, many suitors crowd Queen Penelope's hall seeking her hand in marriage... and refusing to leave until she makes a choice. With the help of her spider friend Arachne and her son Telemachus, Penelope must find a way to fend off and outwit the unwanted guest taking over her house... before time runs out.

Blending episodes and themes from Homer's Odyssey and Ovid's Metamorphoses, this thrilling and amusing tale of wits, warfare, and weaving is appropriate for advanced beginning readers of Latin.
