Be careful re the texts from Moscow, ID. Not because of the theology but because of the Latin. We used a text several years ago with our children and I found some mistakes.

I don't know about all the Latin texts they publish. I don't even recall which one it was, but I think it was the most basic, introductory text.

By the way, Wheelock is a great text! As far as books which were not made specifically for homeschoolers go, I've also found one called Latin via Ovid to be helpful. Thank you for the Jenney's recommendation
