Twenty of Shakespeare's best plays, as told by the English storyteller Edith Nesbit, were published in 1907 and immediately became one of the favorite children's books. More than a century has passed, and Shakespeare's Amazing Plots are still as popular. What is the secret of their success? The fact is that Shakespeare's plays, written in 17th-century language, are difficult reading even for adults. And not knowing the plots of Shakespeare’s works is at least strange. This is where children's writer Edith Nesbit comes to the rescue, who retold these works in simple words and gave us a fascinating and entertaining read.
