Young Jim Mulholland can’t believe his good luck: He has signed on as a cabin boy to the world’s finest ocean liner, the Titanic, and can’t wait for the history-making voyage across the sea to America. As part of his duties Jim is in charge of the ship’s cat, a beautiful tortoiseshell that also appears happy to be on board. He calls the cat by the ship’s construction number, 4-0-1, certain that she will bring him good luck. And he’s delighted when 4-0-1 shortly gives birth to a litter of kittens.

But once the ship’s trial runs are completed and it’s ready to launch to sea, Jim notices that 4-0-1 is nowhere to be found. He’s got to find her-the Titanic can’t cast off without her lucky cat. Jim is faced with a decision that will affect the rest of his life.

Asier se apeó del tren en una solitaria estación. Poco o nada podía imaginarse acerca de lo que le esperaba en aquel pueblo que pisaba por primera vez.
El nuevo profesor de la escuela se dirigió al centro de una localidad muda, silenciosa, donde le esperaba una nueva vida, lejos de los suyos. En su camino al hostal donde habría de pasar la noche dejó atrás varias viviendas. En el interior de una de ellas Diego, un niño “diferente” a los demás, vivía el día a día como una estancia infinita en el infierno. Su madre, Gloria, luchaba por sacar adelante una familia que amenazaba con quedar rota.
Afortunadamente, las soledades y fantasmas de cada uno de ellos parecían condenados a encontrarse, a convivir y por qué no, tal vez a desaparecer.

The Tempest is an exciting tale of jealousy and betrayal, magic and romance, repentance and forgiveness, and has all the elements necessary to ignite a young child's imagination and creative energy. By her use of rhyming couplets, Lois Burdett has once again succeeded in transforming Shakespeare's complex verse into a format readily understood by children.

Children's enthusiasm toward Burdett's adapted Shakespeare is evident in the wonderful drawings and anecdotes created by her Grade 2 and 3 students at Hamlet Elementary School in Stratford, Ontario. Together with the five other books in the successful and beautifully produced Shakespeare Can Be Fun! series, The Tempest will delight teachers, parents and children.

"Williams has a brilliant signature style. . . . All the adoring fans of her TALES FROM SHAKESPEARE will rejoice, and new ones will join in the applause." —KIRKUS REVIEWS

Grab a seat as Marcia Williams wields her popular comic-book style to bring AS YOU LIKE IT, KING LEAR, MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING, ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA, TWELFTH NIGHT, THE MERCHANT OF VENICE, and RICHARD III vividly to life while evoking the mood, mischief, and manners of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Elizabethan theater. As in her previous volume TALES FROM SHAKESPEARE, Williams blends her own storytelling skill with Shakespeare's rich dialogue to make these masterpieces accessible to even the most reluctant reader. Bravo!
