Grace, age 10

Biography

I'm Grace and I am ten-years-old years old. I like English, writing, netball and having fun! I also like going on holiday and relaxing! 

About my diary

I chose Judith Shakespeare because she seemed really interesting. Most people were doing Anne or Susanna but I thought it would be interesting to write about Judith. She is a twin after all! I used my own knowledge, the internet and schoolwork to create my writing.

   

Tell us how it felt to make your diary

I really loved making my diary with all the old English words. And I liked the fact that you could use your imagination along the way.

What did you find most interesting about Shakespeare's family?

I found out about the play Hamlet and a lot of Shakespeare's insults. I would have loved to find out more about the real Judith herself though.
