Bookroo's summary

Max, a beaver with a big crush on Molly, can't find the right words. His brother Milo suggests grand gestures, but is that the key to winning her heart? As Max navigates the hilarity of love, he learns that sometimes simplicity speaks volumes. Will Max's attempts lead to success or disaster? Discover the surprising truth about love's true language.

From the publisher

When the fabulous beaver brothers, Max and Milo, are around, matters of the heart turn hilarious. Max has a crush on Molly, and he doesn’t know how to tell her. He tries and tries and tries to write her a love letter…and fails and fails and fails. Enter Milo, who says that writing a letter is soooooo boring. Max has to do something spectacular! Incredible! Earth-shattering! That’s the only way to win Molly over. Or is it? When it comes to love, the boys discover that sometimes less is more.
