  <default-description>The story takes readers into the enchanted woods surrounding ancient Athens. On this night there will be more than the usual mayhem. For two human couples have entered the forest, not knowing that the fairies and hobgoblins who live there have mischief in mind. When Oberon&#8212;the Fairy King&#8212;and his loyal servant Puck intervene in human affairs, the fate of the young couples is magically and hilariously transformed.

&#8220;A nice way to prepare children for a fresh performance of the play&#8221;&#8212;Booklist

A classic in itself, full justice to the genius that came before.&#8221;&#8212;NAPRA ReView</default-description>

He does a great job of simplifying the stories so that kids can understand while keeping some of Shakespeare wonderful language.<br/><br/>His other titles include Hamlet, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, Twelfth Night, The Tempest, and A Winter's Tale. ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[My favorite piece of Shakespeare, other than his sonnets.  I also was able to see the play in Regent's Park when I went to London in 2006.  I love it more than words can express!]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[My boys thought it funny when Bottom (with the donkey-head) said he'd like a bale of hay.  Nice illustrations.  Extremely simplified version, missing the humor of this play.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book was well done.  Bruce Coville was able to capture the feel of the bard's prose and make it a story better understood by the average reader.  I enjoyed the pictures.]]></body>
