When the ever-enthusiastic and high-spirited Penny Pollard accompanies her friend Alistair and his mum (a long-suffering chaperone) on a tour of the United Kingdom, the results are hilariously unpredictable. Penny proves herself to be a very busy and unusual tourist as she looks for the Loch Ness monster, works out the true meaning of Stonehenge, dabbles in a bit of match-making, and makes new friends from different parts of the world.

Editorial Reviews:

Narrator Rebecca Macaulay provides a high-spirited, impish performance of Penny Pollard's adventures as she goes on a tour of the United Kingdom with her friend Alistair and his long-suffering mum. Penny's voice has just the right touch of mischief and enthusiasm as she barrels through her holiday looking for the Loch Ness monster, deciphering Stonehenge, getting some match-making done, and making new friends. Macaulay also narrates the diary entries, letters, and miscellaneous notes that pepper this story with a pleasure that listeners will surely share.

For the junior adventurer

In this fourth episode of the Penny Pollard series, we see Penny at her best. The thing I like most about these books is the personality behind the character of Penny. Having read this book as a 12 year old, I immediately identified with Penny's independent, mischevious and adventurous side. Along with her intellectual sidekick Al and his mother, Penny sets off to conquer the United Kingdom, with some hilarious results. The characters she meets along the way are entertaining and give us further insight into the complexities of Penny Pollard. Iwould recommend this book for 11-15 year old girls and women young at heart-I still love it!

kid approved

this is my first review; my boys, 10 & 12, were both very attentive to hear the story, as soon as i take them to school or pick them up their first question is can we put on the book. a fun story of kids using their special attributes to help others, despite their own adversities. only complaint is that the story is too short!

Wonderful Work of Art

How can you give anything but a 5 to a Shakespeare play. I am listening to lectures on Shakespeare from The Great Courses, and wanted to read the play they were discussing along with the lectures. Shakespeare has great insight into the human condition and he can express it in the best of ways. Sometimes I just shake my head, marveling. Of course, I have read Romeo and Juliet before - in fact a few times. But it is always a treat to revisit a great work or art. On this read, I came to the conclusion that the biggest culprit in the play is the Friar. How could he leave Juliet in her hour of obvious desperate need, just to save his own skin? Anyway, clearly 5 stars.

Un clásico, ahora en español! La grabación tiene ...

Un clásico, ahora en español! La grabación tiene diferentes actores, y ciertos valores dramáticos. No es /tan/ dramático como la grabación de Don Quijote, o Los Miserables, de esta compañía. La literatura se define algo así como "todo lo que se pierde cuando se traduce la obra." Así es con Romeo y Julieta. No es tan bueno como en inglés.

Thank the heavens for 'No Fear Shakespeare'.

Exceptionally helpful. Recommended by my English teacher (she also used it for class), and it couldn't have gone any better. Personally, Romeo and Juliet wasn't too difficult to understand, but there were some very archaic words with weird definitions and 'No Fear Shakespeare' really helped me understand them. I recommended this book wholeheartedly and will definitely be trying out some other Old English literature using this brand.

Larger than I expected, but no nonsense print. ...

Larger than I expected, but no nonsense print. It gives you the list of characters and then the play in it's entirety. What more could you ask for?

worked great!

Great copy suitable for students!!! With a study guide. It was the version suggested by our homeschool course!

A short and bumpy trip

The audio recording quality of this story is very subpar. I thought it was my stereo having distortion, but it's the recording. The narrative and story goes too fast and it's not targeted for small kids.
