During her career popular children's writer Edith Nesbit collaborated on over sixty books of fiction for children. In "Beautiful Stories from Shakespeare" she turns her attention to a series of interpretations of William Shakespeare's works. These retellings of Shakespeare's plays are written in a way that can be easily understood by and entertaining to young readers. "Beautiful Stories from Shakespeare" includes a short biography of Shakespeare, a pronunciation guide, a list of famous quotations, and retellings of the following plays: "A Midsummer Night's Dream," "The Tempest," "As You Like It," "The Winter's Tale," "King Lear," "Twelfth Night," "Much Ado About Nothing," "Romeo and Juliet," "Pericles," "Hamlet," "Cymbeline," "Macbeth," "The Comedy of Errors," "The Merchant of Venice," "Timon of Athens," "Othello," "The Taming of the Shrew," "Measure for Measure," "Two Gentlemen of Verona," and "All's Well That Ends Well."
