You know, I love Shakespeare. And when I say I love Shakespeare I don’t just mean I love Shakespeare, I mean I REALLY love Shakespeare. And when I say I REALLY love Shakespeare I don’t just mean I REALLY love Shakespeare: I mean I REALLY REALLY love Shakespeare.When Andy, Danny and Lisa are transported to 11th century Scotland (with the help of a little Wizz Fizz), they realise that it is more than just time tracel. Everyone thinks that they are characters from Shakespeare’s play ‘Macbeth’ and Andy discovers he is married to the most beautiful girl in the world – Lisa Mackney. But trouble arises when Andy kills his wife, his best friend and many kittens, puppies and ponies. With Andy Griffiths’ hilarious plotline and Terry Denton’s comical drawings, Just Macbeth! is truly a marvellous book. Good for jokelovers between 8 and 13.
