I absolutely loved this! I think this way of adapting Shakespeare's work makes it so much more accesible to a wider audience. The illustrations were gorgeous, and the selection of excerpts from the original script was used really effectively to maintain the integrity of the play, while condensing and adapting it for the modern reader. I will definitely be showing this to my Year 9s, who are currently learning about Romeo & Juliet!

Etter gjennomlesing nok engang, for så å kikke nærmere på teksten og alle de nydelige språklige passasjene, så hoppet boka opp på fem stjerner. Jeg har ikke tidligere vært klar over at det finnes noen perler av noen sonetter "skjult" i teksten. Clever den der Shakespeare, gitt!

Even though I didn't like the story much and how it was worded, I did like the artwork a lot.
