Happy Valentine's Day Mouse!
A perfect introduction to Mouse and his antics especially for younger kids. This super cute board book is one of our favorites.

The Biggest Valentine Ever
I'm a big fan of Clayton and Desmond, and we've enjoyed their pumpkin and Christmas tree adventures too. This is a great series for helping kids learn to work together, as the characters must overcome their disagreement to make the Biggest Valentine Ever!
