We'll be doing the 8th-grade WTM List next year, if that helps.

It would be nice to find an edition with large-ish type, lots of margin space, and maybe a few notes along the way (esp. to help with vocabulary). I bought the Thrift editions this past year (7th gr), and just don't like them.

Thanks!

I really like the Penguin Classics Editions for general readability. For Shakespeare, we almost always choose Folgers.

If you have multiple readers, it is often fun to get more than one translation and then compare. The notes are usually different too.

They have nice quality, good text size, excellent notes and an affordable price. Honestly, I'm just silly on the subject.

Another one I've enjoyed recently is Aladdin. The spacing on the pages makes me much easier to read.
