Never Too Little to Love
Never Too Little to Love, by Jeanne Willis, is about a mouse who loves a giraffe. He tries to reach her by stacking one thing on top of another on top of another. Finally, the stack crashes to the ground before he reaches her. She hears the crash, sees him, and because she loves him, too, bends way down to give him a kiss.
Never Too Little to Love is a sweet story about unconditional love and never giving up. It would be best read to or by younger elementary students. They will enjoy the repetition and will most likely read it along with you as the repetition builds. The illustrations are bright and younger students will appreciate the flaps that allow you to see the repeating words. It is just a really cute story.
