### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A delightful prose retelling of Shakespeare's famous works
  

*by D***T on Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2013*

I accidentally discovered a hardbound version of this work in a used bookstore perhaps twenty years ago, and recently gifted it to my oldest granddaughter, who has a love for Shakespeare's world. I then discovered the identical work -- for free! -- on Kindle. The plays are presented in a prose, short story format, written for young people. They are delightfully detailed and the language and style of writing, although somewhat dated, is smooth and fun reading. This is a definite recommendation for anyone wanting to discover The Bard's works without having to wade through the plays. For anyone needing a quick knowledge of a particular play, or just wanting to immerse themselves in the genius of Shakespeare's work, this is the book to get. And it's free!

    I would not be without this book
  

*by G***Y on Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2019*

Every lover of Shakespeare should have this book. If you want to refresh your memory of a particular Shakespeare play, here it is. Strangely, very occasionally, it is not always one hundred percent accurate. Originally written for children but mostly enjoyed by adults. I would not be without it.

    Better than Cliff notes
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2014*

In his time, Shakespeare was the playwright to Everyman.  Think Neil Simon.Just as with theater -goers today, it was usual for the audience to know ahead of the performance what they expected to witness.  Shakespeare's genius was in many things, but as with most great artists, he stole from the best!!  NOT PLAGIARIZING AS WE MEAN IT TODAY..  He retold ancient myths and sometimes more recent legends. He combined plot and sub-plot as any great chef combines ingredients.  AND, he did it with wonderful language that was witty and fresh and provoking!  Shakespeare broke the then-current rules of language: he verbed nouns!!!  (Remember the language arts teacher who instructed that "contact" is not to be used as "John contacted his boss."?  Shakespeare increased English enormously: some say 50% of words in ordinary use today are due to him!SO, if you read Lamb, you will be able to pick up a play, or enter a theater with a background similar to the original audience.p.s. Reading the great Greek and Roman myths will help you see many inside jokes and references; Bullfinch is still my favorite source - one rarely finds this level of language on WWW.
