Dr Michael Goodman, curator of the Victorian Illustrated Shakespeare Archive, has made a unique Shakespeare colouring book, and it is free for everyone to download and print out at home!

The colouring book features 35 gorgeous Victorian illustrations by the great H.C. Selous from the title pages of 35 Shakespeare plays.

“If you want to engage your kids with Shakespeare in a fun way,” Dr Goodman says, “or if you want to just relax yourself with 35 lovely images, then you can download it here!”

Dr Goodman adds that the colouring book had over 100 downloads in the 24 hours since he first tweeted the link. Let’s see if we can get that to 1,000!
