Hamlet and Richard III
Richard speaks his thoughts:'But I—born crude, with hum-ped back and wretched, misformed shape, whose visage makes dogs snarl and bark, and grown men stand and gape—am not well built for sporting tricks, 'tis plain for all to see, a lover I will never prove, so villain I will be.'With this simple verse, the essence of Richard and what drives him to his evil excesses is captured, and this format of Shakespearean style verse continues throughout the book to cover the entire play, including notable real life events, such as the War of the Roses, the Princes in the Tower and the ultimate end of Richard at the Battle of Bosworth.

Will Power
He is universally regarded as the world’s most influential writer, whose works transcend cultures and time. Yet, in his homeland, one person in five has never seen or read a play by William Shakespeare.
The author of this book believes the reason that so many fail to make the acquaintance of the Bard lies in the classroom. He feels the introduction to Shakespeare is made in the wrong way and to pupils of the wrong age.
This book attempts to show that simple rhymes, evoking the powerful moral themes of Shakespearean drama, can engage the interest of young children more effectively than confronting teenagers with an incomprehensible text.£5.99£4.19
