“William Shakesbear is in need of inspiration. He has no idea what his next play should be about, therefore he decides to visit his fellow author friends in the Literary Critter Guild. He gains deep insight from the likes of Beatrix Trotter, C. S. Shrewis, and so many more. Though some advice doesn’t quite fit, he heads home to ponder. Will there be another great play, or will he need to see more friends? The full cast of narrators do an excellent job giving each character their own personality. Adults will recognize the famous authors and the advice they give to William Shakesbear. This is a must-read for a family of readers. I love a play on literary themes, and I adore animals. This book is really cute. I chuckled each time I heard a famous quote, or an animalized name. This is a really great way to introduce young readers, to their future favorite authors!”
