What They're Saying
Critics Review
First published in 1807, and never out of print, these stories, adapted from 20 of Shakespeare’s plays, are clever and powerful summaries designed to provide children with enough plot and characterisation to allow them to understand the plays themselves when they later see or read the authentic versions.—Independent
