    Goblins in the Castle (Minstrel Book)

    Goblins in the Castle (Minstrel Book) by Bruce Coville from Aladdin

      What moans at midnight in Toad-in-a-Cage Castle?

      Toad-in-a-Cage Castle was filled with secrets -- secrets such as the hidden passages that led to every room, the long stairway that wound down to the dungeon, and the weird creature named Igor who lived there. But it was the mysterious night noises that bothered William the most -- the strange moans that drifted through the halls of the castle where he was raised.

      He wanted to know what caused them.

      Then one night he found out....

      Hamlet

      Hamlet by Bruce Coville from Dial

        There is arguably no work of fiction quoted as often as William ShakespeareÂ’s Hamlet. This haunting tragedy has touched audiences for centuries. Now Bruce Coville makes this play the next of his dynamic adaptations of the Bard for the young. Once again, he expertly incorporates essential lines from the play into his own rich prose to tell the tale of the ill-fated Prince of Denmark.

        Acclaimed artist Leonid Gore adds intense, dreamlike images in acrylic and pastel. His depictions of Hamlet, Ophelia, and the rest of the kingdom are revelatory and unforgettable, helping to make this masterful volume a treasure for Shakespeare enthusiasts old and new.
