Bookroo's summary

A.J. is baffled when he's sent to Miss Laney, the speech teacher, despite his perfect speech. Things get weirder when he's cast as Romeo in the third-grade play. But the real shocker? Who's playing Juliet. As A.J. navigates tongue twisters and unexpected drama, he wonders if he'll have to face the ultimate horror—kissing! Dive into this hilarious adventure where nothing is as it seems and surprises lurk at every corner. Will A.J. survive the play without losing his cool?

From the publisher

The weirdness never stops!A.J. has to go see Miss Laney, the speech teacher, which makes no sense at all because he already knows how to talk. Miss Laney has him say weird tongue twisters and forces him to be the lead in the third-grade play, Romeo & Juliet. And you’ll never guess in a million hundred years who’s going to play Juliet. Will there be kissing? Ew, disgusting!
