PreS-Gr 1–This lift-the-flap board book follows a group of neighborhood children as they spread Valentine’s Day cheer to mail carriers, librarians, bus drivers, and other community helpers. Vibrant rhyming text provides clues to help the audience guess which local worker will receive each Valentine’s surprise. Readers will enjoy the interactive components, joyfully cartoonish illustrations, and diverse cast of characters. Teachers and librarians will find this title well-suited for Valentine’s Day–themed events and lesson plans imparting the value of gratitude or focusing on community helpers.
VERDICT Bound to be a story time hit.
