Racconti da Shakespeare

The selection process must have involved balancing famous stories with those suitable for young readers. I wonder what guided these choices and if some plays were left out intentionally.

While I appreciated the clarity, I wondered if some of the nuance was lost. How do others feel about the balance between faithfulness and accessibility in adaptations like this?

The tone makes Shakespeare feel approachable and fun, but I’m curious about what sparked the creative decision to make them so whimsical.
