Among the books in our library, Jerome's Latin Gospels count as beginner reading. The sentences are fairly short and the story is told plainly, with the same scenes, sayings and phrases coming back from one Gospel to the next, so the vocabulary you learn early keeps paying off. The words to look up are mostly religious or borrowed from Greek, for sects, sins, illnesses and rituals, and the grammar, which the measure does not see, is that of plain late Latin rather than Cicero's.
