Little Bill makes a special Valentine for Mia but is reluctant to give it to her, because he is afraid that the other children in their third grade class will tease him.

It is Valentine's Day and Little Bill has a crush on Mia, a little girl in his class. Some of Little Bill's friends can see that he has a crush on Mia and begin to tease him. This book will relate to the upper grades of an elementary school. At my age I even related this book. ( )

This book explores elementary school crushes and the sensitive feelings children have at such a young age. In this book Little Bill has a secret that he wants to tell the reader. It is Valentine's Day and Little Bill is smitten with a young lady in his classroom named Mia. Some of Little Bill's friends can see that he has a crush on Mia and begin to tease him. Little Bill struggles with his feelings, he likes Mia but he doesn't want to be teased by his friends.

I chose this book because my daughter is experiencing some of the same feelings as Little Bill. Young love comes and goes but a child's feelings are just as real as an adults and deserve to be treated with sensitivity and respect. I would highly recommend this book to any young reader. ( )
