Book Description

March 19, 2004 Dead Famous
You've probably heard of William Shakespeare...He is dead famous for: - writing a few plays - having a bit of a way with words - creating characters like romantic Romeo and murderous Macbeth. But have you heard that William: - did a seven-year vanishing act - nearly had his head chopped off by the Queen - nicked an entire theatre? Yes, even though he's dead, William's still full of surprises. Now you can get the inside story with William's secret diary, find out the news of the day in the Shakespearean Sun and prepare to be amazed as the curtain is raised on Shakespeare's most dramatic acts. Dead Funny - Dead Gripping - Dead Famous

This review is from: William Shakespeare and His Dramatic Acts (Dead Famous) (Paperback)
This is too silly and crude to be of much use, even if there are some interesting facts. I assume the point of teaching Shakespeare is to develop insight. Shakespeare has crude humor certainly, but it is an aspect of his delving into the whole range of human behavior and as such a part, and often a fun part, of that study. This is just simple crudeness seeming to assume that children can not be brought in touch with Shakespeare in any other way. My experience is different. There are plenty of books that expose children to Shakespeare with more to offer than this.
