Tales from Shakespears (Classic)
by Charles
Charles and Mary Lamb retell twenty of Shakespeare's plays as easy prose stories, written with children in mind. Kids get to meet fairies, fools, kings and magicians in tales like A Midsummer Night's Dream, Much Ado About Nothing and Hamlet. The Lambs keep Shakespeare's own words where they can, but the plots are simple to follow. It's a gentle first step into Shakespeare, and it's lovely to read aloud together too.
