Here twenty-one of the Bard's plays are refashioned into stories that are true to the wit, the humor, the wisdom, the sublime heights, the terrifying depths, and above all the poetry of their great originals. Throughout, Garfield skillfully weaves in Shakespeare's own words, accustoming young readers to language and lines that might at first seem forbiddingly unfamiliar. \u003ci\u003eLeon Garfield's Shakespeare Stories\u003c\/i\u003e is an essential distillation--a truly Shakespearean tribute to Shakespeare's genius and a delight for children and parents alike. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New York Review of Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/03\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781590179314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 576\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.40w x 1.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2016 pg. 199 - Recommended, Satisfactory\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Leon Garfield","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36660820574364,"sku":"9781590179314","price":25.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_5d1345d5-834d-4ab0-8084-c1d2f2b8cdef.jpg?v=1603897621","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/leon-garfields-shakespeare-stories-9781590179314","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
