Winter Song

About this book

Charming illustrations open the door to the world of William Shakespeare. Icicles hang by the wall childrens noses are red and raw and Joan is busy in the kitchen stirring the pot. It is winter in Shakespeares England. Shakespeare wrote a number of songs for his own productions. Among the most charming is "Winter Song " performed at the end of his romantic comedy Lovers Labors Lost. Melanie Halls illustrated version of the poem is filled with bold and beautiful images that bring to life the wintry world of Elizabethan England.
