Ms. Ward, the school librarian, sent me this link. I've had a quick look and the text is easier to read and follow than the previous link. This link gives you access to the entire text, as well as other Bradbury books.

Fahrenheit 451 and Romeo and Juliet links
Here are two links that might help English 11 students as we study Fahrenheit 451.
Fahrenheit 451 Text - this is a link to the text of the entire book.
I Tunes 451 Graphic Novel - you can load Fahrenheit 451 onto your I Phone...costs some money, but might be worth checking out.
Something English 10 students may wish to check out:
http://www.squidoo.com/shakespeareforchildren - there are a few helpful links here...check out No Fear Shakespeare...
Here's hoping these help.
