Why was the book Banned.I think the book was banned because Romeo and Juliet suicide, (Romeodrinks poison and Juliet stabs herself). Juliet actually "angry" with Romeoafter he suicide because he didnt left her even a cut out of poison ("Drunk all,and left no friendly drop To financial aid me after ?") and people thought that this willencourage teenagers to suicide because of false love.3. Do you agree with the banning?I do not agree with the banning, although I do think it doesnt fit toan Elementary school or Jr. High, because of the hard language (I had reallyhard time forecast what some vocabulary is), although I wouldnt disallowstudents to read it, if they think they can, or willing to put as much effort asit takes to in full understand the book, I would allow and even recommend it.
