Description
“Who is William Shakespeare?” For more than 20 years, Lois Burdett has asked that question of her elementary school students in Stratford, Ontario, Canada, leading them on a voyage of discovery that brings the Bard to life for boys and girls ages seven and up.
A Child’s Portrait of Shakespeare, written in rhyming couplets is suitable for staging as class plays as well as reading aloud.
Burdett’s magical use of Shakespeare . . . (allows) second graders (to) learn about the playwright and his plays using their imagination and creative energy.–Anne Barry, Library Talk. Full color throughout.
