| The Weird Sisters? (bookmark front) |
The Book Phantom is wrapping up her “Fun with Shakespeare” reading experience. Now it’s time to “close the book” on this reading module by sneaking a bookmark into my library book returns (did you know Shakespeare coined the term "to sneak"?). It all started with Eleanor Brown’s new release The Weird Sisters (the title is a reference to the three witches in Shakespeare’s Macbeth). The front of my bookmark is a vintage photograph of three wizened old gals. It came from an old family album, but no one knows for sure who they are. I call them the Weird Sisters because they look like they could stir up some “toil and trouble”.
On the back of these Weird Sisters, I put a copy of the first scene from Macbeth, where the three witches meet and say the famous line: “Fair is foul, and foul is fair,” before taking off.
