Anita Lobel.
In the cumulative style of "The House That Jack Built," characters from nine of Shakespeare's plays interact with one another and the Bard. Composite "scenes," one from each of the plays, depict the principle characters; corresponding diagrams with names and synopses are included. While clever in concept and rich in visual execution, too much sophisticated material will overwhelm a young audience.
