Star-crossed love. Betrayal. Death. Comedy?
Peter Saltz (Saltz to his friends) and Anabell Stackpoole like each other, but they're too shy to do anything about it. Thank goodness for Saltz's best friend, Ed Sitrow, who masterminds an eighth grade production of Romeo & Juliet-starring none other than Saltz and Stackpoole as Romeo and Juliet. But getting the two reluctant lovebirds together is a bigger task than anyone anticipated, even with Shakespeare's help. What ensues is the most hilarious, disastrous, and unprecedented rendition of Romeo & Juliet in history!
My Take on the Book
This was a great rendition and look at the classic Bard tale, without the drama and with a heck of a lot more comedy. This was a fun, engaging read that will have you laughing throughout the book. The characters are definitely age-appropriate for the reading level of this book and the funny antics as well as the fact that the group has such a short time to put together the play is hilarious in it's own light. All-in-all, this was a fun read that I would encourage all to read and enjoy!
