Favorite Book
My favorite book would be a play that our class has chosen to read. A Midsummer's Night Dream written by William Shakespeare was introduced to me my junior year in high school. I took a Shakespeare class where we read a couple of his plays. A Midsummer's Night Dream stood out to me because it had magic, love, and adventure. The unrealisticness of how lovers mix up because of the manipulation from the fairies and how one characters head becomes a donkey's head.

Great to hear, Shannon! I hope to hear a lot of input from you when we get to this unit! Many of the themes you have mentioned in your post show up in our other texts as well!
ReplyDeleteAs instructors, we are always prepared to hear negative input about Shakespeare; it is nice to hear someone will be looking forward to the play!
