Description - Will Power: A Rhyming Introduction to the Plays of William Shakespeare by John Gordon
He is universally regarded as the world's most influential writer, whose works transcend cultures and time. Yet, in his homeland, one person in five has never seen or read a play by William Shakespeare.
The author of this book believes the reason that so many fail to make the acquaintance of the Bard lies in the classroom. He feels the introduction to Shakespeare is made in the wrong way and to pupils of the wrong age.
This book attempts to show that simple rhymes, evoking the powerful moral themes of Shakespearean drama, can engage the interest of young children more effectively than confronting teenagers with an incomprehensible text.
