They said about the book... A wonderful, multisensory book, useful for parents, educators, and young learners. The twelve labors are masterfully intertwined with grammatical phenomena in an imaginative, artistic, and creative way that imprints on memory and sweetly accompanies our little friends on their journey of knowledge and learning. Ioanna Fantziki, Consulting Psychologist MSc.
In the imaginative and highly intelligent book “The 12 Labors of a Student,” we see how mythology can be transformed into a practical handbook of grammar and spelling. A complete and comprehensive learning 'tool', a story with a beginning, middle, and end in which the hero conquers difficult grammar rules of the Greek language.
The author and illustrator Dimitra Marangoudaki has created an aesthetically impressive result, capable of cultivating the artistic sensibility of children as they come into contact with 'soft' lines and colors. The illustrated method with plot and humor, combined with the delightful audio material that accompanies the book, creates complete material suitable for students in general and special education.
Zoi Damopoulou, Philologist - Special Educator MA, mentions that the Hercules of the Book, a primary school student, is a true modern hero of every child's daily life in our time. The children who read this beautiful Book will easily identify with him and journey through a unique and special story inspired by Greek mythology, while also teaching fundamental rules of grammar in a pleasant way.
These rules, which often intimidate not only small children but also adults, transform here into a delightful and entertaining fairy tale, accompanied by beautiful images, painted by the author herself, who is undeniably multi-talented!
It is an exceptional challenge for a very young author to deal with rules and forms that, at best, are considered difficult and, in any case, off-putting to small children who are called to learn a challenging language like Greek at such a young age. In the end, she certainly manages to make something difficult seem like a piece of cake, and she deserves much congratulations for that!
Spyridoula Sousouni, Philologist, states that finally! A way to make learning grammar and spelling more accessible and enjoyable. Excellent for students with learning difficulties and beyond. A Book that deserves to be in every Library because it is certain that it will serve both young and old.
The philologist and special educator with an outstanding biography praises the creator Dimitra Marangoudaki, who has gathered all the grammar of our language into an incredibly vibrant and enjoyable Book that enchants both young and old.
Her hero is a student with dyslexia, but the Book is aimed at all children for whom the knowledge of the rules seems like a labor. Teachers, both in general and special education, have in their hands a fairy-tale guide to create their own worksheets for reinforcing grammatical phenomena.
The “12 Labors of a Student” is a unique Book in its genre that comes to fill a huge gap in the field of educational books and publications, proving that a gifted educator with imagination dreamed of and realized her own labor by stepping into the shoes of children who struggle to understand the richness of Greek grammar.
George Kandarakis, Teacher, adds that it is an original writing of grammar structured in the development of the mythologies of the “12 Labors”, aiming to empower elementary school students in terms of their linguistic expression with proper and appropriate language.
Each page provides an engaging opportunity to deal with specific grammatical phenomena, with the colorful, pleasant, and high-quality illustrations of the author, an element that mitigates the abundance of information per page. The entirety of the author's work represents a scientific endeavor with didactic completeness and pedagogical approach.
Chrysi Dokimaki, Philologist, emphasizes that the Greek language is a priceless treasure and its proper learning is a true labor. This book combines written language, image, and sound, attempting a tempting way of learning, especially at a time when students tend to acquire knowledge through multimedia.
Congratulations to the creator and thank you for this educational manual.
