Io is tired of her life in a small town in ancient Greece. She is growing up fast but is frustrated that her mother still treats her like a child.
One day, Io finds a wax tablet and stylus in a mysterious clearing in woods. Io is surprised to discover that one the tablet is written a single sentence: “Hello, Io.”
 
Who left the message? How do they know Io’s name? Io immediately decides to solve this mystery, a decision that entangles her, her sister Eugenia, and her friend Chloe in a thrilling and dangerous adventure.
Io Puella Fortis contains both volumes of the series: Io et Tabellae Magicae and Io et Monstrum. As with the other Comprehensible Classics novellas, this new book series uses a limited vocabulary to tell an exciting story accessible to advanced beginner Latin readers.
