Among other commendations, Lois Burdett has received Encyclopedia Britannica's National Award for Early Childhood Education, Canada's Meritorious Service Medal, the Canadian Teachers' Federation's Hilroy Fellowship, and two writers' awards.

Read an Excerpt

"You've got to be kidding!" Helena cried,
"I know, it's Hermia, you want for your bride."
"Not a chance!" said Lysander, "It's you I love!
Who will not change a raven for a dove?"
"Give me a break!" Helena scoffed in dismay,
"Do you think I was born yesterday?
Your speech to me is like a thorn;
How dare you treat me with such scorn!"
Then she stomped off, in great disdain;
Lysander followed with a loving refrain.

    AMAZING

    No Fear Shakespeare books are amazing. I've gotten them both for this book and for Julius Caesar, also. These books make it so much easier to understand the story. I HIGHLY recommend them for anybody who has to read these books for school or for those who would like to read a classic good story the easy way!

    No Fear Shakespeare

    I love me some Shakespeare, but I was worried that there would be parts I wouldn't understand. The translations on the side helped so much in those parts where I was stuck. I always heard people tell me how this is one of Shakespeare's only plays that ended up with a happy ending. It was an amazing story of course.

    BEST Non-tragedy by Shakespeare

    If you are looking for a quick read, this is the book for you. Shakespeare's A Midsummer's Night Dream is the first non-tragedy play I have ever read. It is basically a comical play and very entertaining to read. It's a mixture of love, comedy and somewhat dramatic. The best way to read Shakespeare and understand it to actually enjoy it is through these No fear shakespeare series. :)

    The whole "NO FEAR SHAKESPEARE" really helped!

    I read a book in which Puck was one of the characters and I loved him, so I decided that I wanted to read the original Puck. My teacher had it in her library, I picked it up and my eyes were going crazy! I couldn't understand a word of olde english. I thought I wouldn't be able to read it, but when I was in Barnes and Noble one day, I saw the No Fear sign and I looked at it. It had the language I could read, but also had the original text beside it. That was amazingly helpful, and of course Shakespeare is amazing. Now I know that I can read Shakespeare and I plan to read MacBeth, Romeo and Juliet, and Hamlet which I expect will be just as amazing!

    Who woulda thought, a play in a play.

    Yet another Shakespeare classic. A Midsummer Night's Dream is full of drama for you people out there who are fond of loving relationships. Also, there is plenty of double-crossing that goes on to satisfy one's craving for deceit. Will true love conquer magical force? Guess you will have to read to find out.

    HOW CAN YOU GO WRONG WITH SHAKESPEARE?

    ONE OF HIS BETTER KNOWN PLAYS, AND FOR GOOD REASON, THE PLAY ENCOMPASSES ONE OF HIS BETTER PLOTS.
