Praise for Classics in Graphics: "[ ...] an encouraging entry point to Shakespeare for my kids, and [ ...] an excellent job converting challenging language and literary themes to make it very inclusive, smoothing ease of understanding dialogue, plot, and narration without dumbing it down." - EricWilliamson, leagueofcomicgeeks.com
