SHAKESPEARE STORIES: MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM : Matthews, Andrew, Ross, Tony: desertcart.in: Books Review: My 7 year-old granddaughter reads it over and over. This is her second Orchard Classic, and she loves them both. Review: Picked this up for my daughter’s school reading, and it was spot on. Arrived the next day and looked immaculate - no creases, marks, or wear. The “A Shakespeare Story” version of A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a brilliant way to introduce younger readers to the play, with clear storytelling and just enough Shakespearean flavour. Highly recommended for school use, especially if you want something accessible that still respects the original.

Très bien

This retelling is not really true to the story. It feels more like a superficial cartoon than a tale. The humor and language are missing, as is the depth. It may have been written for children, but this could have been accomplished without talking down to children.

I got this book to help my children with there school work, it was easy to read and now I understand the basic story of this play
