EllRay Jakes Is A Rock Star! (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
Emma whispers later that day. “Are you done with the red marker?” “Yeah,” I say gloomily, snapping the lid on and handing it over. I was drawing a huge ladybug with stingers and fangs, but whatever. “Isn’t this so much fun?” she asks. Valentine’s Day is a huge deal at Oak Glen Primary School—for the girls, anyway. All the boys in school say they hate it, not counting the ones in kindergarten—but I think kindergarten boys only like Valentine’s Day because of the treats. In the third grade, it’s different. But at least Valentine’s Day is a change, because other than that, nothing interesting happens at school between Christmas vacation and spring break. At our school, nobody worries about kids’ feelings getting hurt because they didn’t get enough valentines, which is the way it used to be in the olden days, my mom says. Our school has strict rules about giving people valentines. 1. If you send a valentine to one kid in your class, you have to send valentines to everyone.
