William's words

Part of the Stories From History series, this title provides the story of William Shakespeare's life.

In need of money, William moves to London to work in the theatre.

He enjoys working with the actors, but doesn't really like the plays that they perform.

So he decides to write his own. Word gets out about William's plays, and soon his work even has a royal seal of approval from Queen Elizabeth I.

The simple text of this work offers an attractive first history book for children.
