'"The course of true love never did run smoothly."
'If people have been stuffing up love since Shakespeare's time, what hope does Seph–or sefi_15 when she's online–have with Tom? Look at her parents: they barely speak to each other since Nick moved out, and could her mum really have a 'thing' for their balding (not to mention married) neighbour? Even Seph's best friend Pia–boy magnet–is having problems. The forces of love, like the unbearably hot summer, seem to be beyond anyone's control...
'And now a mysterious grEMLin has invaded Seph's chat room and is about to make her life a whole lot more difficult.'

'Shakespeare in Children's Literature looks at the genre of Shakespeare-for-children, considering both adaptations of his plays and children's novels in which he appears as a character. Drawing on feminist theory and sociology, Hateley demonstrates how Shakespeare for children utilises the ongoing cultural capital of "Shakespeare," and the pedagogical aspects of children's literature, to perpetuate anachronistic forms of identity and authority.'
