		<description>Hello-

I am really excited about a book I just published that I hope will begin to turn on middle- and high-school students to William Shakespeare! It&#039;s called, &quot;Rap-Notes- Shakespeare&#039;s Greatest Hits, Vol.1.&quot; And I am hoping that if you teach English or know any young person who might enjoy my book, please go to amazon.com or barnesandnoble.com. 

As a student, I was intimidated by many of the difficult words I found in Shakespeare. This book is my attempt to assist kids like me. I&#039;ve told the entire story of Hamlet, Romeo &amp; Juliet, King Lear, Macbeth, and A Midsummer&#039;s Night Dream...in rap and rhyme.
Before I was an elementary school art teacher, I worked as a creative supervisor in a New York advertising agency. And today, I&#039;ve written many one-act comedies as well as the book to a musical that performed at the Bleecker Street Theatre in 2011. 
Anyway, I hope you check out the book. Thanks.</description>
