The Shakespeare Alphabet Book

The Shakespeare Alphabet Book seeks to entertain, educate, and put a little silly into everything from Ariel to 'Zounds Each letter of the alphabet is paired with some of Shakespeare's greatest characters, portrayed as animals dressed in Elizabethan fashion, and strung together with a simple rhyming narrative: "A is for Ariel, longing to be released." "B is for Bottom, turned into a beast." A gentle introduction for the beginner, a fond amusement for the connoisseur, and good fun for all.
