informative slow-paced

4.0

Who Was William Shakespeare? by Celeste Mannis is a book in the Who Was/Is Series. All books are nonfiction biography books about someone famous. My eight-year-old found it dull and slow, and while I agree it is a bit dry, it’s jam-packed full of history, culture, politics, and social education. I wish it was told with a bit more pep and humor so he’d enjoy it more, but I’m hopeful as we continue to read the series and enter more modern times that he’ll get more engaged.
