Review: Check out the photos here. Great party favors! - I absolutely love them! I bought this set to create party favors for my 5th grader’s birthday party.ast year we did little pouches with mixed chocolate rocks in them, and it was beautiful and a great success. This year we needed party favors for 15 kids, and I wanted to prepare something that would be memorable and useful and cheap, of course! So I decided that our party favors will be...Shakespeare books! I also ordered here on desertcart clear cello bags for $8 a set of 100 or 200 - I don’t even remember, and I have enough ribbon an colorful paper to write little “thank you” notes. These books are perfect: they have colorful glossy covers, I’ll just put each of them into the cello bag, add the “thank you for coming to my party” note from my kid, and tie the bags with ribbons! They look just the way a cute party favor is expected to look. And the content - it’s Shakespeare, retold specifically for kids, which excites me a lot! Kids will be able to get familiar with Shakespeare!!! The black and white illustrations are full of humor that is just right for pre-teens (although some parents here in the reviews are freaking out. But hey - there is HBO in this world that kids are exposed to lol, and Shakespeare’s stories have it all - sex, violence and other “rock-n-roll”)! So, I think these books are such a great idea to introduce kids to Shakespeare, for a gift or as party favors! Here, I took photos, because there are not enough photos on this books set page, and I myself wasn’t sure what to expect. So these photos are for you guys:)!
Review: Simplified but not dumbed down - I am using this set as part of the homeschool curriculum for my 4 children, ages 6, 8, 11, and 12. All my kids were internationally adopted and have "special needs", including, in some cases, learning disabilities and language disorders. So far, these simplified Shakespearean plays have been a huge hit. The author catches the main plot points, themes, ironies, and character development of the original plays, but in an accessible way. Yes, I do have to provide a lot of context and explanations to my particular children, but these books are still carrying a lot of the teaching weight. The author uses rich language, which has helped me teach new vocabulary and demonstrate good writing techniques to my kids. I'm very pleased with this purchase!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Short and holds the complexity of the original story line!
*by I***E on August 28, 2020*

The books arrived in a such a short time that we were surprised - it was an international order. Very nice collection. The stories are really short and easy to read. We have so far read 2 of the books with my son, exchanged the books and discussed about them, and will continue to do so. There seems to be no exact quotations from Shakespeare (Maybe I am mistaken, because I have not read them all yet.): That I was wondering before my order. It would have been very nice to have at least 2-6 lines in each story where the original text was quoted. Still, the narrative carries its original complexity in terms that one is guided to think about and discuss all the complex and layered relations, ethical questions the original texts would provide. It is a wonderful beginning for early readers.
