What are some books that teach some of the same themes as Romeo & Juliet?
For love - My Heartbeat, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants,
For retelling of Romeo & Juliet - Son of the Mob, West Side Story
I liked this one: www.amazon.com/Romiette-...
My "reluctant" readers (when I worked w/ abused/neglected inner-city youth) LOVED Draper's stuff.
