Microwave Shakespeare Pack 1 is a collection of the first six titles published in this series. The plays covered are six key plays studied in schools and together form a great introduction to Shakespeares plays. Each play is retold as a straightforward, pacey narrative in chapter-book format. Plus each book includes visual information to help pupils get to grips with the plot, the key characters and their important relationships in the play. The stories are all presented in the period of the play but with modern day language. Written by two award winning writers Barbara Catchpole and Stephen Rickard, these are really accessible books.
