Love Thug is a fun story for pre-teens about a first love. Billy wanted to impress Veronica so much he tried to imitate the boy that had already caught her attention. After many failed attempts he realized he just can't do it.Berenson wrote for a pre-teen audience, (I don't see this as a book for older than fourth graders) that is sure to enjoy Billy's outrageous strategies to `get the girl'. A lesson for young kids to be yourself and the right girl will come your way.I would have liked a challenging vocabulary sprinkled throughout the story. Nevertheless, it was a short, entertaining read that kids will enjoy.
