This prose retelling of Shakespeare's romantic comedy of mistaken identities provides young readers with a shorter and simpler version of one of the bard's most popular plays. The text, which retains snippets of the original language, is sprightly enough to keep pace with the many plot twists and turns. Colored pen-and-ink drawings ably interpret the spirited goings-on.
