Ken Ludwig, a wonderful playwright, proves to be a superb guide to Shakespeare as well.”—James Shapiro, author of A Year in the Life of William Shakespeare and Contested Will
“I wish someone had given this book to my parents. It would have made a life-changing task downright fun. Ken Ludwig is a smart, congenial and inventive guide, and everywhere in this remarkable book he takes the strangeness out of Shakespeare’s work and leaves the enchanting mystery. A book for all lovers, and potential lovers, of Shakespeare. Like nothing else, it creates a magical home theater for parents and their children.”—J. D. McClatchy, Yale University
