About this book collection
An excellent introduction to Shakespeare for younger readers, here twelve of Shakespeare's tales have been retold using accessible language and engaging line drawings from Tony Ross, bringing each one vividly to life for a whole new audience. From the doomed lovers in Romeo and Juliet to the murderous world of Macbeth, the tragedies will teach young people about human failings, while comedies such as A Midsummer Night's Dream will show them that there is a light and romantic side to Shakespeare too. In fact, we're sure children captivated by these stories will soon be begging you for a trip to the theatre!

"Shakespeare collection is great!"
It's an amazing collection of stories with lots and lots of action. I recommend these for most boys, and some girls who like Shakespeare. I am eight turning nine in 2 months.
