## Description

desertcart.com: Tales from Shakespeare (Puffin Classics): 9780141321684: Lamb, Charles, Lamb, Mary, Dench, Judi: Books

Review: A great way to introduce young audiences (and older ones) to Shakespeare's works - This is a classic volume for a good reason. It makes the works of Shakespeare accessible to young audiences by summarizing the history lines and simplifying some of the language - the good thing is that this is very well done by maintaining key passages in place. My two daughters (9 and 11) have some familiarity with some of the more famous plays (Romeo and Juliet, Midsummers Night Dream...) and have read kid versions from the library, but I think the versions from Tales from Shakespeare although closer to the original material were accessible and suitable for reading aloud and was a totally enjoyable experience (I don't tend to read aloud to them often as they prefer to read on their own now, so that was a fun treat). A bonus is that this book is a quick way for an adult to reacquaint with these works and the main story lines and references (but you don't have to tell anyone, of course :-)).
Review: Wish more tales were available - My kids (11 and 13) love this book. We have read straight from Shakespeare many times and have also read some tales from this book. They really like this book better because they understand the storyline a little easier. I wish that I could find all of the tales retold.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great way to introduce young audiences (and older ones) to Shakespeare's works
*by O***X on January 10, 2021*

This is a classic volume for a good reason. It makes the works of Shakespeare accessible to young audiences by summarizing the history lines and simplifying some of the language - the good thing is that this is very well done by maintaining key passages in place.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect introduction to Shakespeare
*by M***R on November 18, 2019*

This book introduces young people to the world of Shakespeare and his plays. We use this book in our school with 5th and 6th graders. Once they are done they are ready to read one of his plays. It’s a great book.
