Synopsis
So what was it like to live in Shakespeare's time? What do we actually know about him? And how does someone become that famous? These are just a few of the questions addressed in this lively and accessible book on the life and works of William Shakespeare by award-winning author, Michael Rosen. Ideal for browsing, the text is divided into clear sections and includes studies of four of Shakespeare's plays, intriguing facts and information about Shakespeare himself and the world at this time, accompanied by a useful time line.

Review
A revelation of just how good a teacher and critic Rosen is. Will serve as a model for those teaching Shakespeare at Key Stages 2 and 3. * The Times Educational Supplement * A terrific idea, winningly executed by poet and wit Michael Rosen. Taking four of the bard's plays ... he presents a lively canter through Shakespeare's life and times, and in the lightest possible manner offers a persuasive argument for why Shakespeare still matters. Better than that, why he is a pleasure, not a chore. * The Glasgow Herald * A lively and accessible book. * My Child * Stands out because it encourage children to wonder and questions why Shakespeare is still acted, read and quotes and why his work still shapes our language and literature today * Books for Keeps, 10 best books to introduce children to William Shakespeare *
