        Hamlet

        by William Shakespeare

        Hamlet is Shakespeare's longest play, and is considered among the most powerful and influential works of world literature, with a story capable of "seemingly endless retelling and adaptation by others". The play likely was one of Shakespeare's most popular works during his lifetime, and still ranks among his most performed, topping the performance list of the Royal Shakespeare Company and its predecessors in Stratford-upon-Avon since 1879. It has inspired many other writers—from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Charles Dickens to James Joyce and Iris Murdoch—and has been described as "the world's most filmed story after Cinderella"

        Pasts at play

        Childhood encounters with history in British culture, 1750–1914

        by Rachel Bryant Davies, Barbara Gribling

        This collection brings together scholars from disciplines including Children's Literature, Classics, and History to develop fresh approaches to children's culture and the uses of the past. It charts the significance of historical episodes and characters during the long nineteenth-century (1750-1914), a critical period in children's culture. Boys and girls across social classes often experienced different pasts simultaneously, for purposes of amusement and instruction. The book highlights an active and shifting market in history for children, and reveals how children were actively involved in consuming and repackaging the past: from playing with historically themed toys and games to performing in plays and pageants. Each chapter reconstructs encounters across different media, uncovering the cultural work done by particular pasts and exposing the key role of playfulness in the British historical imagination.

        In Doing Good Deeds

        by Written by Fan Luming, Illustrated by Xia Xinxin

        In Doing Good Deeds: Chinese Stories from Famous Paintings is set against the backdrop of Wang Ximeng's masterpiece "A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains" of the Northern Song dynasty. Adapted from the traditional folk tale "Fan Dan Asks the Buddha," it follows Fan Dan's journey to change his own impoverished fate by seeking out immortals in the deep mountains. Along the way, he meets a ministry councillor wishing for his mute daughter to speak, a tortoise longing to be a dragon, and a landlord aspiring to become a deity, all seeking answers about their destinies from the immortal. As Fan Dan meets the immortals and inquires about others' fates, he cannot inquire about his own. On his journey back, each person realizes their good fortune, offering Fan Dan generous rewards in return. The story embodies the simple wisdom of ancient Chinese people, allowing children to immerse themselves in traditional Chinese culture and appreciate the magnificence of nature, the wisdom of humanity, and the depth of art.
