About the Author

Hermione Tankard discovered her love of Shakespeare in fourth grade when she asked her father to buy her a copy of Romeo and Juliet. She read it to herself as a bedtime story for the next two weeks. Little did she know it would one day lead to a job writing new Shakespearean adventures with her dad. When not helping her dad with their book Yorick and Bones, she enjoys acting and singing onstage.

Jeremy Tankard is an award-winning illustrator. His work has been featured in Time, the Boston Globe, the New York Times, Fortune, Guitar Player and others. He lives in Toronto with his wife and daughter.
Reviews

"The Tankards' debut collaboration is a delightfully quirky and lively introduction to Shakespearean conventions and iambic pentameter. Fun, forsooth." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"[A] joyous, cross-generational read-aloud. A true comedy." -- Booklist

"Hermione's droll text is slyly matched with Jeremy's fast-paced, emotive art, often with an inside-comics flair. It's tragedy and comedy combined, and that -- plus flashes of merriment -- captures the spirit of Yorick and his adorable companion." -- The New York Times Book Review
