Poetry for Young People: William Shakespeare: Volume 10 by David Scott Kasten

He was the greatest poet and playwright who ever lived, the dramatist who penned lines that we quote without even realising their origin. Shakespeare's glorious works have even inspired animated films - like Disney's The Lion King. Introduce children to the Bard with this wonderful, fully annotated collection of sonnets and soliloquies, enhanced with beautiful, highly realistic colour paintings that bring each excerpt to vivid life. Here are Shakespeare's most famous speeches: including everything from Hamlets - 'To be or not to be' - and Macbeth's witches cackling 'Double, double, toil and trouble' to the sonnets, Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? and humourous songs sung in comedies such as Twelfth Night. Every entry is a revelation.
