Teddy Rook Book

One-page infographics on great books and big ideas, playful ways to learn Koine Greek and Latin, and history games. Free to use, no sign-up.

What is this?

Teddy Rook Book is a free, one-person project about great books and big ideas. It isn’t a book club: there are no meetings, members or sign-ups. It’s a resource you can pull from, whether you run a book club, teach a class, homeschool, or just like to read.

  • 🖼️ Infographics One-page visual guides: character maps, book-club companions, and explainers on faith, science and finance. Open one on a screen or print it for your group.
  • 🗣️ Languages Learn Koine Greek and Latin from the Gospels and the classics, with listening drills and a reader that explains every word.
  • 🏛️ Games Short browser games set in ancient Greece and Rome that teach vocabulary as you play.

Also here: my home library catalog and the markets dashboards I use myself. They’re mostly for me, but they’re public, so use them however you like. There’s also a page of free resources elsewhere for Latin, Greek and the great books.
