Overview: This an excellent book about some of the famous tales from the famous Shakespeare which are retold in modern English mixed with a bit of Shakespearean English, too.
Comments: In most of the stories, there are a moral accompanied with it and I think all of the stories are all really good and they all teaches you something, for example, 'Don't completely believe what others say except when you have proved it right yourself, or the innocence would suffer greatly.'. Some of my favourite stories are: King Lear, The Two Gentlemen of Verona, Cymbeline, All's Well That End's Well, etc. Although I really liked this book, I think some of the stories are still a bit difficult for me to understand some of the Shakespearean English, but overall I still liked it a lot and I have learned a lot of things, such as interesting morals and exciting vocabularies in this book. I really enjoyed it and recommend you all to read it!
