Description

This title chronicles Shakespeare's tragic tale of two doomed star-crossed lovers, an ancient family feud and its terrible consequences. Follow Romeo and Juliet as they meet, fall in love and ultimately fall apart in Verona, and see how their revolutionary love shakes the foundations of Verona itself.

Specially commissioned full-colour artwork brings excitement and atmosphere to this classic tale. Speech bubbles work with the main text to emphasise and enhance the retelling. A running glossary at the foot of each page helps young readers with any challenging vocabulary without disrupting their reading experience.
