For my friends who kept asking me for a children's book list...

Tales from Shakespeare
This is the book that prompted Madeleine's interest in Shakespeare. She checked it out of her school library in 5th grade. Knowing the general plot and characters of the plays made it easier for her to read and understand the originals. Because of its comic form even Henry has looked at this.
The seven plays represented are “Romeo and Juliet”, “Hamlet”, “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”, “Macbeth”, “The Winter’s Tale”, “Julius Caesar”, and “The Tempest”.
I have one husband, three children, two cats (and now a dog!) and a house full of too many books to count. I love to read, ride my bike, bake, develop my own photographs, and I've been known to neglect all housework to play with my kids.
