If only I could rate this 0/5 stars! Such blasphemy. Totally defeats the purpose of studying Literature. You have completely butchered the beauty and raw emotion that Shakespeare language contained.

I flag it as inappropriate. What if a little kid sees this and tries to do what they're doing in the picture. And terrible book by the way.

About the author
BRETT WRIGHT holds a BFA in creative writing and works full-time as a children’s book editor in New York City. In college, he studied Shakespearean tragedy, which was sadly lacking in emoticons. His greatest love affair has been with pizza.
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in 1564. He was an English poet, playwright, and actor, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world’s preeminent dramatist. His plays have been translated into every major language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.
