Child brings home some works of Shakespeare (7)
I believe the answer is:
sonnets
'works of shakespeare' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with creating things as well as being verbs in their -s form.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'child brings home' is the wordplay.
'child' becomes 'son' (male child).
'brings home' becomes 'nets' (I've seen this in another clue).
'son'+'nets'='SONNETS'
'some' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sonnets that I've seen before include "Sent son to find short poems" , "lifted poems" , "verses" , "Fourteen-line poems" .)
