The Tempest for Kids (Shakespeare Can Be Fun!)
<p> <b>The Tempest</b> is an exciting tale of jealousy and betrayal, magic and romance, repentance and forgiveness, and has all the elements necessary to ignite a young child's imagination and creative energy. By her use of rhyming couplets, Lois Burdett has once again succeeded in transforming Shakespeare's complex verse into a format readily understood by children. </p><p> Children's enthusiasm toward Burdett's adapted Shakespeare is evident in the wonderful drawings and anecdotes created by her Grade 2 and 3 students at Hamlet Elementary School in Stratford, Ontario. Together with the five other books in the successful and beautifully produced <i>Shakespeare Can Be Fun!</i> series, <b>The Tempest</b> will delight teachers, parents and children. </p>
