Barron’s continues to lead the way in helping college-bound students in the two most-often-taken test areas.

Too many high school students miss out on the drama and excitement of Shakespeare’s thrilling theater because they’re daunted by the differences between Elizabethan English and English as it’s spoken today. Barron’s comes to their rescue with two different series--Shakespeare Made Easy and Simply Shakespeare--that present selected Shakespeare plays with the Bard’s original text set side-by-side with modern "translations" of the dialogues. Among the major works in these series are Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, and Macbeth. Students and teachers will discover still another fascinating approach to Shakespeare in the Picture This! Shakespeare series. Six Shakespeare plays are presented in graphic novel form, and feature many excerpts from the original dialogue.
After English, Spanish is the nation’s most widely-spoken language—-and Barron’s is ready with books and audio CDs for everyone and anyone who needs to learn. Most language teachers believe that the quickest way to learn a new language is to start with verbs and verbal constructions, that's why so many new speakers start their study with the classic bestseller Barron’s 501 Spanish Verbs.
