This edition features 11 unique illustrations throughout to colour in. The wife of a Scottish lord persuades him to murder the King for his crown with dire consequences.

The language and vocabulary are simple, and emphasis is on action using past, present and future simple tenses. Punctuation meets UK or USA ESL/CEFR/IELTS Level B2 in most cases, although there are some 19th Century features of the text which do not comply and have been left intact to preserve the charm of Shakespeare's text. The vocabulary in this book is slightly harder than for The Mysterious Affair at Styles and Frankenstein. You should try those books first if you are not familiar with words like the following: disdaining, undaunted, distillation, refrain, slaughtered.
