A good Complete Works. My favorite is the Riverside. Arden is good too.

ORRRR something that's really cool are First Folio fascimiles. Here's a complete works, or Shakespeare's Globe in London sells individual plays.

The two classic Shakespeare books would be "Will in the World" by Greenblatt, which is about Shakespeare in the context of the world / culture he lived in, or "Shakespeare: Invention of the Human" by Harold Bloom, which discusses every single play. Personally, I really love Jan Kott's "Shakespeare Our Contemporary" but that might be a little intense for a teenager. Maybe not, though.

There's a few of them you can see at the Folger Library and there have been facsimile editions of the First Folio available since the eighteenth century.

It's relatively a relatively common book, I don't see why every single copy should be on permanent display.
