William Sheepspeare's plays were shear genius!

Meet one of history's greatest figures in this adorable board book with an animal twist! Dive into the life of the eloquent Baa-rd of Avon and the plays that shaped our language today. Willam Sheepspeare's human themes have resonated with every generation. With hilarious puns and colorful illustrations, this book brings his legacy to life for babies and parents alike! 

Our Thoughts:"To baa or not to baa..."

We return to Wild Bios 'animalistic introductions to history's greatest figures' in William Sheepspeare, a fun and humorous board book that introduces your little ones to the great "Baa-rd" of Avon. 

We've read one other Wild Bios book (Frida Catlo) and love how this series takes real people from history and explains their lives with cute and quirky animal puns and lots of themed wordplay. 
You're sure to get some laughs when "Hamlet" becomes "Lamblet" and "All's Well That Ends Well" becomes "All's Wool That Ends Wool".  

The illustrations are super cute and feature many different animals in era-appropriate clothing.

These adorable Wild Bios board books are the perfect introduction to historical figures for little listeners and are a lot of fun for parents and others to read out loud as well!

Be sure to check out our review of the equally delightful Frida Catlo!
