From Booklist:

In dance class the students are gearing up for a performance of Romeo and Juliet, but problems such as a mean girl, young love, and math class keep getting in the way. The publisher has scaled down the trim size of this humorous graphic-novel series while still keeping the text easily readable in order to appeal to young teens. But even though there are some ever-so-slightly racy jokes (such as one about “doing it,” where the punch line goes in a hilariously different direction), nothing keeps this brightly illustrated series from being great fun for older children as well. Grades 4-8. --Snow Wildsmith
