Overview

When young Orlando searches the forest for his banished lady love, Rosalind, he doesn't realise that he's met her in disguise. Dressed up as a boy, Rosalind sees a chance to train Orlando to be the sort of partner she'd like - and she has some laughs along the way!

Originally written by William Shakespeare, this edition has been cleverly adapted for young readers of 7+ by Samantha Newman. This is the perfect first introduction to a classic play from the most influential English writer of all time.
