coville Follows Up His Version Of The Tempest (see P. 84) With A Retelling Of Another Of Shakespeare's Most Popular Plays. The Fundamental Story Of Magic, Mischief And The Trials And Tribulations Of Love Is Preserved Through Well-chosen Use Of The Original Language And Coville's Heady Prose (the Queen... Saw The Ass-headed Monstrosity Through Magic-drenched Eyes). Major Plot Lines Are Clearly And Concisely Rendered, But It Is The Portrayal Of The Various Levels Of Humor-from Bottom's Buffoonery To Puck's Gleeful Magic-making-that Really Captures The Essence Of The Play. Nolan's (dinosaur Dream) Sumptuous, Painterly Watercolors Highlight The Theatrical Setting Of The Spellbound Wood. Gnarled, Mossy Trees Provide The Backdrop For A Cast Of Unusually Youthful Lovers, Gossamer-winged Fairies (which Nod At Rackham's Famous Interpretations) And A Truly Puckish Puck. A First-rate Entre To The Bard. Ages 7-up. (oct.)
