William Shakespeare's most famous stories are brought to life for a new generation!
This cleverly adapted, wittily illustrated book is the ideal introduction to Shakespeare for a new generation. It will take young readers on an imaginative journey to the Globe Theatre in Elizabethan England, where they will discover some of the most famous plays ever written.
They will...
• Thrill to the ghostly drama of Hamlet.
• Be swept away by the magic of A Midsummer Night's Dream.
• Swoon to the timeless romance of Romeo and Juliet.
• Gasp at the twisting plot of Macbeth!
Samantha Newman's reworked text retains many of Shakespeare's own inimitable turns of phrase, while simplifying and clarifying the language and plots to make stories accessible to children.
