Commentary Toward Books Fifteen (First Love #1)

It seems too good to be true. The most popular boy in school has asked Jane out -- and she's never even dated before. Stan is tall and good-looking, friendly and hard-working -- everything Jane ever dreamed of. But is she ready for this? Suppose her parents won't let her go? What if she's nervous and makes a fool of herself? Maybe he'll think she's too young. If only she knew all the clever things to say. If only she were prettier. If only she were ready for this... With her usual warmth, perceptiveness, and humor, Beverly Cleary creates the joys and worries of a young girl's first crush.

Fifteen is a cute and innocent story about a young girl, Jane, and her dating experiences. The book was not clear of the time period it was set, but I am assuming in the fifties which is when it was published. I thought the book was a little hard to get into, because there wasn't a whole lot to the plot. I prefer to read more exciting stories and I thought Fifteen was lackluster. I saw Jane as somewhat of a dull main character. She was so wrapped up in "being someone" at her high school that it

Aawwwwww. Lovely.THere are two things I really enjoyed about this book. First, it's a great slice of life from the mid-fifties, when girls wore dresses and walking five blocks to the movies and stopping by the malt shop was the usual type of date that teenagers had. No hooking up, they don't even kiss for several dates. The parents being worried because she's going out with a boy in a car, shocking!!! The descriptions of the clothes and having to sneak into the closet for a few private minutes

My first impressions of reading fifteen are that it is a well written novel. I found it to be an easy read, from chapter to chapter with no breaks in the plot. The story flowed well and engaged the reader with areas of conflict and suspense as Jane developed meaningful relationships with her peers, Stan, and her parents. I enjoyed reading the story about a young girl beginning high school and finding her first love. I feel this book is suitable for the young adult reader, probably young women

**slight spoilers ahead**1-27-20: It's her earliest teen book and the only one that's a true teen romance. Shelley moves back to Portland. Jean and Barbara are destined for More. But Jane and Stan are destined for each other, and it feels cruel to even imagine them not together. When they discuss the kiss over the phone...we should all be so lucky to have such a moment of enthusiastic consent.4-5-14: one of those unintentional re-reads that just happen6-19-12:Ha! I'm bumping this up a star but,

Fifteen by Beverly Cleary was a cute read that was made in the fifties, overall I really enjoyed this book for many reasons. First of, all since it was written in the fifties it was much more conservative when it came to dating which I thought was very sweet. It was very sweet because nowadays its all very inappropriate clothing that is very revealing for a teenager. This book made me want to go back in the fifties and find Stan and marry him. Speaking of Stan, let me introduce you to the

I recently read Beverly Clearys two autobiographys and Im catching up on some of her titles I missed as a kid. Charming and old fashioned.

So when I finished The Group on Monday I thought Gee I wish I wish I wish I had a wonderful YA to read next, but I was in a hurry to get out of the house and didn't have time to loot the other girls' shelves so I just picked up Einstein's Dreams, which is okay-seeming so far. But THEN the very NEXT day I received in the mail from my brilliant magical perfect mother THIS! Like she heard me in a dream from the future and mailed it. And as soon as I'd read the first page I remembered all these
