Othello: Shakespeare Stories for Children (A Shakespeare Story)

by Andrew Matthews, Tony Ross

This is a gentle, easy way into one of Shakespeare's great tragedies. Othello finds love and happiness, but Iago, the friend he trusts most, is a cunning villain who is quietly plotting to wreck it all. Andrew Matthews tells the story in simple prose, and Tony Ross's lively drawings help young readers follow along. It's a good first taste of Shakespeare before your child meets the play itself.
