Romeo & Juliet

Jennifer Adams retells Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet as a counting primer for toddlers — one that manages to preserve the romance without the tragedy. Little ones count love letters, roses, and kisses as they move through the story, picking up early numeracy skills while absorbing the cadence of classic literature. The illustrations are considered and chic, and the prose pairs original Shakespearean quotes with age-appropriate simplification. It's a clever way to introduce the Bard without waiting for high school, and the kind of board book that holds up to dozens of bedtime reads. For the literary household or the parent who wants their child's first bookshelf to include more than farm animals.
