Winter Song: A Poem by William Shakespeare

32 pp. | Boyds/Wordsong | October, 2006 | Trade ISBN 1-59078-275-5 $15.95
(4) K-3 Without the cachet Shakespeare's authorship entails, there seems little reason this brief lyric from Love's Labor's Lost, describing the discomforts and delights of the winter season, would be selected for children. The text includes vivid images but also archaic language. Hall's impressionistic illustrations featuring a Renaissance family alternate between chilly outdoor scenes and warmly inviting interiors. Glos.
