Can you mix Shakespeare and kids? When was the last time you read or watched the Bard? Do you have a community of readers to read Shakepeare with? to read Shakespeare for? Can you create a community of Shakespeare appreciators with your children? Charity dives into quality retellings of William Shakespeare which are suitable for children, especially the <13 population. Charity argues that retellings are analogous to re-stagings. She recommends resources to help us respond to "Mommy, what is Hamlet about?" We are enriched by encountering Shakespeare and cannot exhaust his treasury by beginning early.
