Shakespeare’s Storybook: Folk Tales That Inspired the Bard
FROM SARAH:
This is a fascinating book that explores how Shakespeare was influenced by a variety of folk and fairy tales in his own playwriting. Each story begins with a author's note from Patrick Ryan on the history of these tales. Due to content, I would recommend for ages 8+.
FROM THE PUBLISHER:
Accompanied by lavish illustrations, this elegant collection of classic stories that inspired seven of Shakepeare's literary masterpieces is filled with adventure, love, destiny, and magic.
