This is a lively retelling of Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Follow the quick-witted Danish prince as he carries out his plan to avenge his father’s death, from the play that catches the king’s conscience to the gripping and bloody finale. Specially commissioned full-colour artwork brings excitement and atmosphere to this classic tale. Speech bubbles work with the main text to emphasise and enhance the retelling. A running glossary at the foot of each page helps young readers with any challenging vocabulary without disrupting their reading experience.
