The Shakespeare Stealer

The Shakespeare Stealer by Gary Blackwood  [YA Fiction]

by Jessica, 6th grader

I really liked this book. There were a lot of surprises. The Shakespeare Stealer was mainly about a boy named Widge who is bought by a scary man and is supposed to steal Shakespeare’s play “Hamlet”, but he does not want to. Widge has made friends and does not want to betray them, but if he doesn’t get the play, his master has threatened to slit his throat. What will he do? You’ll have to find out by reading it yourself!
