The CopyWorkBook series from Blue Sky Daisies makes it easy to add a little copywork to your school schedule. The CopyWorkBook: Comedies of William Shakespeare includes quotes and selections from each of Shakespeare's comedy plays. In this edition of The CopyWorkBook, lines are provided for students to copy the quotation using the penmanship style of their choice. Copywork is more than penmanship practice, however.
