Much Ado About Nothing for Kids (Shakespeare Can Be Fun!)

This is one of those series that is so well done you can't imagaine EVERYONE not knowing about it! Have you always been a bit out of the loop or intimidated about Shakespear? Or are you good with it but don't know how to show/share that love with your family and students. This series will do it!! It's good for ALL ages, my middle school students found it fun and informative yet... really young (4ish) children could learn from it too. Save your self the upgrade and buy it in hardback, this will be one that you keep for generations and get the "WHOLE" series, each one is just as good as the other!

Funny

I wanted to introduce my daughters to Shakespeare and found, 'Shakespeare Can be Fun', series. My daughter tasted 'blood' with the series (so to speak). She read all the books I bought and now I "have" to order more :). I would start with 'Much Ado About Nothing' to introduce a kid to Shakespeare - it is an easy and fun read. I highly recommend it.

The author is brilliant. The language is simple enough for the kids to understand, but still rich enough to be educational, and it all rhymes!We have bought most of Lois Burdett's Shakespeare for Kids.

I LOVE these books. I was very active in theater through college. Did a couple Shakespeare productions. These are a great way to introduce these plays to elementary ages. For upper elementary or junior high I recommend "Tales from Shakespeare" by Charles and Mary Lamb.

Great wat to learn Shakespeare

This is a great book to introduce kids to the wonderful works of the bard.

Darling book. The authentic quotes are wonderful, and the poetic retellings are clear and fun. We are so enjoying this!
