From School Library Journal
Grade 8 Up–This guidebook introduces the uninitiated to Shakespeare's famous play, and the two CDs that accompany it present an abbreviated version. They begin with stilted and singsong voices and improve only slightly as the play proceeds. It is a rushed and uneven production. The book itself takes a different direction from most volumes that introduce the play and explain the story. The characters are introduced, first the major and then the minor: "This is Hamlet's girlfriend. Her name is Ophelia. She is both a loving girlfriend and an obedient daughter. Unfortunately for her, these roles will clash." The power bases are introduced, and then the main plot and subplots. The allegiances among the people are represented by diagrams showing the connections. The graphic representation of the plot and characters could be very useful for students who are experiencing Shakespeare's works for the first time. A concluding time line outlines the main action scene by scene, and an appendix explains historical sources of the play and offers some background about Shakespeare. A variety of methods for accessing the play are suggested. The series title is misleading. This book certainly takes more than an hour to read and digest; listening to the CDs also takes longer. Not a first purchase, but an interesting introduction.–Carol Durusau, Newton County Public Library, Covington, GA
