A Midsummer Night's Dream

(4) 1-3 Shakespeare Collection series. Illustrated by Ross Collins. Four of Shakespeare's best-known plays are retold as modest short stories, with plot and characterizations boiled down to the basics. Shakespeare's language--the most important component of the work--is lost, but those seeking accessible summaries of these great works may find the books helpful. The volumes are illustrated in a combination of black-and-white and color art that matches the tone of each story. [Review covers these Shakespeare Collection titles: A Midsummer Night's Dream, Hamlet, Macbeth, The Tempest.]
