William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet

(4) K-3 Translated by J. Alison James. Illustrated by Christa Unzner. This simplified prose version of the play emphasizes Romeo and Juliet's romance while eliminating all subplots and secondary character development. Unzer's sophisticated, graceful, layered illustrations are the book's greatest strength. Bits of original text are interlaced with the delicate ink drawings and sometimes-translucent painted pictures.
