The Total Tragedy of a Girl Named Hamlet

294 pp. | Dial | February, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8037-3298-8 $16.99
(3) 4-6 As the daughter of quirky Shakespeare scholars, Hamlet Kennedy already has to deal with more embarrassment than the average eighth grader, her name being the least of her concerns. When her genius seven-year-old sister Dezzie--short for Desdemona--joins her class, Hamlet's life becomes even more like a tragicomedy. Readers will enjoy this humorous story and its sympathetic heroine.
