I love anything that has Shakespeare in it. Like Celia Rees's The Fool's Girl and Jan Mark's The Stratford Boys and even Rosemary Sutcliffe's Brother Dustyfeet. Anyone remember that? I had it read aloud to me when I was 11 or so (a long story!) and can't recall any detail but remember being enthralled.adelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15826710558292792068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-26961819353620664352011-10-11T21:17:41.886+01:002011-10-11T21:17:41.886+01:00Double cross dressing - this I've got to read!...Double cross dressing - this I've got to read!
