Tales From Shakespeare Av Mary Lamb, Charles Lamb, Sir Arthur Rackham

<p>In 1807, Charles Lamb and his sister Mary wrote a collection of stories retelling twenty of Shakespeare''s plays for children. While making sure that the pieces were accessible for a younger audience, they took care to stay faithful to the language and vocabulary of the Bard as much as possible. <br><br>Ranging from the high drama of Romeo and Juliet to the delightful fancy of A Midsummer Night''s Dream and the humour of As You Like it, this collection of vivid adaptations ¿ here presented in a lavish new edition ¿ has been a much loved children''s classic for more than two hundred years, offering budding readers an accessible route to Shakespeare''s works.</p>
