In this charming collectable book; there is a selection of Charles and Wendy Lamb's classic prose retellings of Shakespeare's plays that are beautifully illustrated by acclaimed artist Joelle Jolivet. The Lambs' Shakespeare; familiar to readers since the 1880s; gets a modern twist from Jolivet's vibrant and colourful art. Jolivet re-imagines the princes; royalty; fools and villains from Shakespeare's world as colourful; striking characters. From Much Ado About Nothing to Macbeth ; each story features pages of illustrations that are both irreverent and wholly appropriate. Enclosed in a die-cut slipcase; the book is the perfect gift for Shakespeare fans at any age.
