          For our final unit in World Literature, we will study Macbeth by William Shakespeare. The version of Macbeth that we will be reading is The No Fear Shakespeare Macbeth Graphic Novel. I have chosen this graphic novel adaption of the text as it accurately preserves the language of the original play while updating it for a modern audience. Additionally, the layout and images that appear alongside the text in this adaption are helpful for understanding the events that occur throughout the play.

          We will begin our unit on Monday, April 29, and each student is required to have their own copy of the book in class that day. For reference, a picture of the cover and the ISBN of this exact edition are below.

          Please let me know via email if you are unable to find a copy for your student or if you are able and would like to donate a copy to the class.
