Tales From Shakespeare Paperback – June 5, 2007

Attracted to the quality of the cover and the overall publishing was so attractive. The plays in prose is so significant for readers who may not want to tackle the archaic writing form. Recommend.

The illustrations and the pages of the book itself are so high quality and lovely! Definitely recommend

My very young friend celebrates his birthday with William Shakespeare. I thought it would be a great way to introduce him to Shakespeare's stories by giving him a copy of the Lamb "Tales." His mother and father can read the stories to him and when he's older, I hope he'll pick up the plays and read them himself.The book is an older copy but it was in great shape. FLAWLESS. And, most importantly,it arrived in time for the birthday party.Superb service!

So far so good. Haven't read it yet but the book itself is in good shape.

The book introduces the Shakespeare plays as stories. The language is a mixture of Shakespeare's dialect and a more modern English. It works well.

The book was in excellent condition just as promised. I have an old copy of the work, but wanted this one for my grandchild. It's a great way to introduce people to reading Shakespeare.

These pages are extremely hard to read because the font is really small, maybe 8 point, with not much white space on the page. It seems they were trying to fit as much as they could on each page in order to save paper. I haven't begun trying to read it yet, but it is seems it will be an unpleasant experience due to the difficulty keeping concentration on the small print. I may just return it.

Complex but understandable narrative versions of Shakespeare's plays. Used for seventh and eighth grade. Uses much of original language.
