The Tempest
is coming to movie theatres next month and I cannot wait to see this version! From the trailer, the visuals and the acting are going to be breath-taking. The kids have not yet read The Tempest, so for some context we’ll be reading it before going to the movie.

Since the original prose is a bit much for small people, our go-to resource is Shakespeare Can Be Fun, with versions for kids with colorful child-drawn illustrations. We first tried out A Midsummer Night’s Dream in this series and it was hilarious. Can’t wait to see what they’ve done with
The Tempest
. If you want to read a classic with your kids before seeing the movie, you have time to get a copy of the book and experience the magic.
