William Shakespeare is one of the greatest playwrights in history, but let's face it-his plays can be difficult to understand. No Fear Shakespeare provides students with a fun, effective way to experience the Bard's plays by telling the story in black-and-white, manga comic book form. These adaptations are more thorough and detailed than the other abridged, illustrated Shakespeare books we carry, making them suitable for older students. They also retain the "flavor" of Shakespeare's original language. Approx. 200 pgs, pb. ~ Lisa
