Shakespeare Children's Stories (Easy Classics) 20 Books Collection Box Set (20 Shakespeare Children's Stories (Easy Classics)) Paperback – Box set, 6 Sept. 2012

My son loves the way these books are written. They say they are for age nine plus, but my seven year old followed them quite easily. He had already read the Usbourne version of A Midsummer Night's Dream (also excellent) and The Tempest, so he knew what to expect. I recommend parents sit with younger children as they read these stories because some of the concepts are quite advanced, but as an introduction to Shakespeare I can find very little to fault this set.

Daughter received these for Christmas and loves them. A great way to learn!

Second collection of Shakespeare's books I got for my daughter. First one had some old English on it and made it difficult to read. This one is very good. It gives the child a good knowledge of the stories. It's easy to read and has some pictures as well.

I bought this for my son as a way of introducing him to the texts that he would have to study later at school. I read one myself and was disappointed at the lack of notes - however brief - to put simple things into context. On the other hand it was very simple (for primary school kids) and a fast way to get clued up for older kids BEFORE reading the 'real thing'.

20 lovely books ideal for making budding readers well acquainted with Shakespeare’s writings.Very pleased with the purchase.Great price and fast delivery.

Fabulous set of books. I really can't fault them. All the main plays of Shakespeare written in a way that holds the childs interest. Complete with illustrations and just enough traditional dialogue, these books are a must for anyone wanting to introduce their child to the world of William Shakespeare.

This book set for children is excellent.My daughter loved itI will definitely purchase other sets

For a much younger audience than advertised.My 9 year old found them to be too basic.
