(4) 4-6 Mia shakes up Stanton Middle School when she buys chocolate roses from the student council Valentine's sale and gives them anonymously to kids who aren't part of the in-crowd. Wild speculation about crushes and friendships leads to miscommunication and hurt feelings. It's a slight picture of early adolescence, but readers will recognize the uncertainty that new emotions can evoke.
