(4) 4-6 Tales from Shakespeare series. Illustrated by Yaniv Shimony. These deeply abridged prose retellings provide very basic understanding of each play's plot and introduce the major characters. Brief quotations from the original works appear in sidebars, and Shimony's lively line drawings give a sense of the appropriate historical settings that might otherwise be lost. The simplicity of these versions necessarily abandons most of the intrigue and richness of Shakespeare. Review covers the following Tales from Skakespeare titles: Hamlet and Henry V.
