Bookroo's summary
Jane's heart races when the most popular boy asks her out. But is she ready for her first date? As doubts swirl—will her parents approve, will she embarrass herself—Jane must confront her insecurities. Can she find the confidence to embrace this new experience, or will her fears hold her back? Dive into the joys and worries of a young girl's first crush, where every moment feels like a thrilling adventure.
From the publisher
It seems too good to be true. The most popular boy in school has asked Jane out – and she’s never even dated before. Stan is tall and good-looking, friendly and hard-working – everything Jane ever dreamed of. But is she ready for this?
Suppose her parents won’t let her go? What if she’s nervous and makes a fool of herself? Maybe he’ll think she’s too young. If only she knew all the clever things to say. If only she were prettier. If only she were ready for this…
With her usual warmth, perceptiveness, and humor, Beverly Cleary creates the joys and worries of a young girl’s first crush.
