Twelfth Night

(4) 4-6 Tales from Shakespeare series. Illustrated by Yaniv Shimony. Abridged prose retellings make the plots clear, but little remains of Shakespeare's original language. Complex characterizations and emotions are reduced to simple terms and the ambiguity that makes Shakespeare endlessly interpretable is eliminated. Brief quotations from the original works appear in sidebars. Two-tone line drawings help give young readers a sense of the action and are especially successful conveying the comedy of Twelfth Night. Review covers these Tales from Shakespeare titles: Julius Caesar and Twelfth Night.
