Publisher's Synopsis
Step into the world of two of Shakespeare's most imaginative and enjoyable plays with Charles and Mary Lamb's classic retelling of The Tempest and A Midsummer Night's Dream. The Tempest tells the tale of Prospero's reunion with his villainous brother, of Ferdinand's enchanted courtship of Miranda, and of faithful Ariel and Caliban the brute. A Midsummer Night's Dream introduces Oberon's fall-out with his queen Titania, and the consequences for four mixed-up Athenians in the fairy woods. Designed for students all ages, the typography and spacing make for an easy read, and the illustrations by "Golden Age" illustrator Arthur Rackham bring Shakespeare's world to life. 5.5" x 8.5"; 111 pages; 22 black and white illustrations.
