Romeo & Juliet: Script & copiable teacher's book
'Very successful & very useful' Sally Harrison, Hattersley High School
'The Shorter Shakespeare can be unreservedly recommended. The text in the pupil's book is an intelligent (and eminently actable) abridgement of Shakespeare's original, and completely faithful to it in spirit if not in letter. The teacher's resource book is a model of its kind: systematic, well organised and thorough. The varied and imaginative activities and resource sheets cover National Curriculum requirements and make Shakespeare inviting to teenagers across the ability range. For students in Years 8 and 9 especially, this one stands out from the crowd. Try it.' The School Librarian
'A valuable resource that ... can provide a complete scheme of work for the busy teacher...There have been a variety of abridged versions and simplified texts on the market over the years, which has upset many Shakespeare purists. This one is different. The focus is on enjoying the language and the meaning of the play, focusing on the dramatic element...At £2.99 per copy this book, along with the resource book, would be an asset to all English and Drama departments - consider it for the next school play!'www.schools.co.uk reviews
