Book Reviews of The Tempest : For Kids (Shakespeare Can Be Fun series)
Book Review: fun way to introduce your children to Shakespeare
Summary: 5 Stars
Really a very nice read and age appropriate. It's a great way for your children to learn Shakespeare's Tempest so when they hear the actual version, they do not struggle with the language to get the story.
Summary of The Tempest : For Kids (Shakespeare Can Be Fun series)
The Tempest is an exciting tale of jealousy and betrayal, magic and romance, repentance and forgiveness, and has all the elements necessary to ignite a young child's imagination and creative energy. By her use of rhyming couplets, Lois Burdett has once again succeeded in transforming Shakespeare's complex verse into a format readily understood by children.
Children's enthusiasm toward Burdett's adapted Shakespeare is evident in the wonderful drawings and anecdotes created by her Grade 2 and 3 students at Hamlet Elementary School in Stratford, Ontario. Together with the five other books in the successful and beautifully produced Shakespeare Can Be Fun! series, The Tempest will delight teachers, parents and children.
