Sixth graders Devin and Frankie try to save star-crossed lovers Romeo
and Juliet when they’re magically transported into Shakespeare’s
classic play. When their teacher assigns Devin and Frankie—short
for Francine—the lead roles in their class production of Romeo and
Juliet, the two best friends aren’t thrilled. How are they supposed
to say their lines when they don’t even sound like they were written
in English? Luckily, the library’s magic security gates come to
their rescue again, and they leap into Shakespeare’s famous tragedy.
Unfortunately, they land right in the middle of a sword fight between
two warring families, the Montagues and the Capulets. When they
find out that Romeo Montague has fallen in love with Juliet Capulet,
Devin and Frankie decide it’s up to them to make sure this unlikely
couple lives happily ever after. But can they change the book’s
tragic end and save the young lovers from their fate? “The
message that reading is important and can be fun comes through loud
and clear,” writes School Library Journal about the Cracked Classics
series. “The short chapters make this an ideal read-aloud and a
treat for reluctant readers.”
