We've had a look at these new graphic novels, created by Classical Comics, and we like them!

They are available in three formats, original text, plain text and quick text. Please take a look at their website and if you want to buy them, you can using the links below.

 

Henry V original text Henry V Plain Text Henry V Quick Text

Macbeth Original Text Macbeth Plain Text Macbeth Quick Text

From the Classical Comics website:

"The three text versions linked to enthralling graphics, are the key to engaging students of all ages.
We take the reader on a journey through the classics from the basic story written in simple language, moving through the full story in plain English, to the wonders of Shakespeare's full, original English text.

These are not just for children - adults will be able to use this "study path" to better understand these wonderful works. Our current policy for our non-Shakespeare titles is to publish Original Text and Quick Text versions only, as the Original Text is much simpler than the more poetic Shakespearean speech (and unfortunately we are having to abridge those texts due to the sheer length of the original works, but we are still working towards 120 pages or more in order to provide a substantial reading experience)."

 
What they say about us:

S4K ROMEO: "To my mind, the most important thing that Shakespeare 4 Kidz does with this production is to get children into the theatre to see Shakespeare." What's On Stage
