The next book in the "Enjoying Great Art" series, this book is a little different than the others. It keeps the overall format of the other books, but this one follows a more specific order - beginning with paintings that introduce William Shakespeare and the characters in his plays, followed by individual pages for most of his plays, and then two pages of paintings celebrating the completion of his life and his work. Note to parents/teachers - the books in the "Enjoying Great Art" series are made to be as student-friendly as possible. But certain topics, including this one, don't lend themselves to quite the "G rating" we generally strive for - this one would be more of a "PG" rating.
