Book Reviews of William Shakespeare's The Tempest
Book Review: A Beautiful Adaptation
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book to use with my fifth grade class, and I'm very pleased with it. One of the main objections to this play is that Shakespeare was long on words and short on action. Mr. Coville retells the story without the political intrigue, without sacrificing the charm of the story. I also loved Ruth Sanderson's illustrations.
