Drawing on Shakespeare's language wherever possible, this brother and sister team has turned his plays into short narratives that young readers can understand more easily than the works themselves. Whether it's the stormy action of "Macbeth", the high drama of "Hamlet", or the comedy of "A Midsummer Night's Dream", the Lambs bring simplicity and charm to these tales, read by a carefully chosen of actors. The unabridged tales included are "Hamlet, King Lear, Macbeth, Measure for Measure, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Romeo and Juliet, The Tempest" and "Twelfth Night".
This is Book 11 in the Children's Classics S. Series. See all Children's Classics S. books here.
