Reviews
[A] lively read. A friend-affirming Valentine story with a time-teaching element to boot. A good choice for storytime or one-on-one sharing. School Library Journal What better way to celebrate Valentines Day than to create an opportunity for everyone to gather and express their gratitude for each other. Good Reads With Ronna
