Romeo and Juliet.

Shakespeare wrote many great plays and books. Dad wanted us to read Romeo and Juliet. Then after we were done he told us to write a five-page essay on it.
When two servants of Montague's and Capulet's meet, they start fighting. Sorry if I was rude not introducing the households. Their name's are the Montagues and Capulets. They hold a grudge against each other. Benvolio from the Montagues, Faces against Tybalt from the Capulets. The citzens start getting clubs and tell them to stop it or they will put a to it. The prince comes and warns them if they fight again then all of them will be hanged. Romeo is sad and Benvolio figures out that he is in love.
Well, heres the story so far. I also learned new words like coz, which means cousin.

Hi! You guys are very brave to conquer Romeo & Juliet. (It's not my favorite story. The first thing they tell you when writing a romance is not to have a MISUNDERSTANDING be the whole conflict, esp when it can be cleared up in one one-on-one conversation.) What did Shakespeare do? He had a misunderstanding and everyone died over it. Not very uplifting.

Much Ado About Nothing is good though. You guys should try that one next.
