You Make Me Happy

"Readers with romantic butterflies of their own may be emboldened by the girl's decision to announce her affection to the boy--with a message that reiterates the book's title." - Publishers Weekly

"The message is a universal one with broad appeal... The gorgeous artwork and tender storyline provide a good backdrop to talk to children about the angst of young love." - SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL

Sofia likes a boy in her class very much. She feels anxious and happy at the same time. She tells Grandma, because Grandma always knows what to do. "You should tell him you like him," Grandma says. But what should she say? And where? And when? Grandma and Grandpa are happy to share their story with Sofia. And that gives her an idea....

A sweet and tender picture book with beautiful illustrations about loving someone and learning to tell them For children ages 5 years and up.
