Shakespeare for children Tales from Shakespeare

About The Book : He following Tales are meant to be submitted to the young reader as an introduction to the study of Shakespeare, for which purpose, his words are used whenever it seemed possible to bring them in; and in whatever has been added to give them the regular form of a connected story, In those Tales which have been taken from the Tragedies, as my young readers will perceive when they come to see the source from which these stories are derived, Shakespeare’s own words, with little alteration, recur very frequently in the narrative as well as in the dialogue; I have wished to make these Tales easy reading for very young children. To the utmost of my ability. I have constantly kept this in my mind; but the subjects of most of them made this a very difficult task.
