The Love Letter
A hedgehog, a bunny, and a squirrel each find a letter, but it isn't just any letter, it is a love letter. A wonderful story about the power of kind and loving words and how hearing them can make us feel cheerful, helpful, carefree, and...loved.
Love
A quiet book about the simple things we do daily to express our love for each other as well as a sharing of the things we do when times are hard or scary to support and love one another. In the words and actions of others is where we can see the spirit of love.
Here Comes Valentine Cat
Not a fan of mushy Valentines or the new dog neighbor next door, Cat has all kinds of reasons to NOT send a Valentine across the fence, unless it is one that say, "Roses are Red, Violets are Blue, Who's the Worst Neighbor? I think it's you!" Is Dog really that bad or are Cat's un-loving thoughts about Dog totally off base?
