Romeo and Juliet--Together (And Alive!) at Last5 reviews
Avi
HarperTrophy, 1988
Read this book about a life for a modern a 5-7th grader.
I read the book, Romeo & Juliet Together at last (and alive) by Avi Wortis. It was about a boy who was in love with a girl . The boy liked poetry and the girl could never put a book down. The boy's friends think that if he could put on the play Romeo & Juliet his friend would be Romeo and his lover would be Juliet. It worked out as he planned and they got the parts .There is one problem; ...

Romeo and Juliet (Folger Shakespeare Library)26 reviews
William Shakespeare
Washington Square Press, 2004
A rightful classic
This was my first Shakespeare and it certainly won't be my last. While some people dislike this book for the "love at first sight" "stupidity" of the two, I think you need to try to get past that. I definitely agree that Romeo and Juliet are morons, but it makes for a nice story. Would you really want to watch a play about two people who court each other for years, get married to the happiness of ...

Romeo And Juliet 1 review
William Shakespeare
Barron''s Educational Series, 2002
Perfect!
I'm a high school freshman studying Romeo & Juliet and I cannot understand hardly any of it. I found this book at a Borders bookstore and I have been reading it and it is extremely helpful. There's a line-by-line translation that makes a ton more sense. Buy this if you're having trouble with R&J!

The Romeo Flag (Felony & Mayhem Mysteries)6 reviews
Carolyn Hougan
Felony & Mayhem, 2005
One super-sexy spy thriller
I picked this book up because it is a spy thriller--a genre which I enjoy. It does not disappoint in that area (if you're not picky about the Cold War being over, and all...). A lovely surprise is the heightening tension produced by how much the reader comes to care about what happens (or might happen) to these wonderful characters! Before boy even meets girl, you want them to fall in ...

Romeo and Juliet (Shakespeare Made Easy; Parallel Edition)
This was a great resource while teaching "Romeo and Juliet" last year to my English 1 students. I was able to explain the more difficult passages to them as we read along in the book. I wish that I had the money to purchase this book for all of my students. I plan to use it again this school year.

Falling for Romeo6 reviews
Jennifer Laurens
Grove Creek Publishing, 2007
More like Romeo falling for Juliet!
So... I picked up this book and I found this amazingly INSANE, awesome story. Basically, this is what I found...
Falling for Romeo is written so you can see the thoughts of the two main characters. John and Jennifer. John and Jenn grew up together living in houses right next door. They were best friends and you couldn't keep them apart until high school came around. Now things have changed. ...

Full text + helpful information
I have to say that the information given in this book was definitely helpful. I liked how they summarized the following scene at the beginning of the scene and had commentary on the scene at the end. The commentary is definitly helpful, although it could be a little bit more in depth in places. It is particularly helpful how they define terms in the margins that may be unfamiliar to readers.

A Signifigant Work on Alfa Romeo
"Alfa in America," the name of the second chapter, would have been a better title for this excellent book - written by a life long enthusiast whose life paralleled the marque's presence in America. The remaining chapters are a nice distillation of the author's previous books on the history and maintenance of Alfa's four cam models. The heart of the book, and the main reason for its purchase is ...

A logical pairing of 2 great theatrical works

The book also includes an introduction by Norris Houghton, who notes, among other things, that WSS is based on R&J. Each text tells the story of a love affair between a young woman and a ...

Jeanne Ray, 2003
Utter Charm
"Utter charm" describes this book which has been around for some while. I've had to give a number of copies as gifts since it's so delightful. No, it is NOT deep or profound. It IS witty and charming. Yes, it is light, but perhaps lightness is called for these days.

Manga Shakespeare: Romeo and Juliet (Manga Shakespeare)5 reviews

Abrams Books for Young Readers, 2007
Pretty cool. My daughters love it..
I bought this for my admittedly hyper-literate daughters (10-14) who are currently fixated on both manga and Shakespeare. The graphics in the book are very well done and the story is straight from the bard. It's a great way for kids to dig a little deeper into very rich material. Highly recommended.

Romeo and Juliet
I think that this is a great book because it tells you how much two people can really love each other and they gave up their lifes for their love. I have seen the movie version about Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and still love the book every time I revisit the story. Every word fascinates the reader into truly feeling the passion and tragedy of these two lovers. Even a character such as Tybalt ...
