Summary:
In 1597, Shakespeare debuted his newest play, a tragedy about a young Italian couple whose families were sworn enemies.
Romeo
and
Juliet
quickly became one of the most famous couples in literary history, and this play became one of Shakespeare's most performed shows. But did you know that much of
Romeo
and
Juliet
's
story
was adapted from tales by other writers? Learn all about how William Shakespeare's dynamic and romantic teenage duo sprouted from the Italian
story
of The Tragical History of Romeus and
Juliet
in 1562 and grew into adaptations like West Side
Story
and even Gnomeo &
Juliet
in this nonfiction book for young readers.
