Inaccurate

This was not good. We have been studying Shakespeare plays all year. I downloaded this to help my youngest child finish the readings for the year quickly, but discovered that each story we listened to had been drastically changed. We did not complete the Audible due to this, since inaccurate stories would not give what we needed.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
