This authoritative and accessible series contains the complete and unabridged text of some of Shakespeare's finest works, in addition to concise notes that are adjacent to text for easy reference. Detailed explanations of difficult words and passages plus illustrations are included to enhance students' understanding.
The characters come alive for readers through the thorough, updated notes, which feature social, historical, and literary context in which the plays are set. In addition, a companion audio CD showcases the deeper understanding and enjoyment that come from the power of performance.

Mediafusion
In the tradition of Poetry Speaks, the anthology named a Best Book of 2002 by School Library Journal, and praised by the Seattle Post-Intelligencer as “a volume to delight longtime lovers of poetry and to spark new love for poetry, especially among the young,” Sourcebooks MediaFusion is proud to introduce the joy of the written and spoken word in Poetry Speaks to Children.
This book reaches into the world of poetry and pulls out the elements children love: rhyme, rhythm, fun and, every once in a while, a little mischief. Illustrated in color throughout, Poetry Speaks to Children is designed for children ages 6 to 11. Featuring more than 100 poems--50 of them brought to life on CD--ranging from Gwendolyn Brooks to Ogden Nash, Shel Silverstein to J.R.R. Tolkien, the book and CD will allow children (and parents!) to read and listen simultaneously.
