Pink is for Boys
Not at all about Valentine’s Day, but still a fun book because it has PINK in the title and talks about all about how any color is for anyone!
In My Heart
Again, not Valentine-specific, but it takes you through different feelings of the heart. And for sure heart=Valentine’s.
A Crankenstein Valentine
You know him, you love him…it’s Crankenstein during Valentine’s. He’s grumpy about all things Valentine’s Day until he finds a friend who’s just as grumpy as him. Your students will love his silliness.
Love Monster
The title and picture alone are calling for a sweet craft at the end of this book. Love monster is just looking for…LOVE!
Love Monster and the Last Chocolate
Love Monster is back and doesn’t know if he should eat or share his chocolate. He learns that sharing his treats is the sweetest gift of all.
A Little Spot of Love
Learn how to show love! This little spot of love grows through compliments, kind words, good gestures, etc.
Love Is
A little girl and a duckling learn what love is when the little girl begins to take care of the duckling. A sweet story about the challenges and joys of caring for others.
This is NOT a Valentine
True friendship/love is about noticing what the other person does and spending time with them. The story shows how moments shared are the most valuable. Small items that a person is interested in is NOT a valentine 😉
Mirabel’s Missing Valentines
Little Mirabel loses all her valentines on the way to school. As she drops them, they fall to people along the way and they brighten their days.
Smooch!
It’s a mushy one! Nothing can stop a kiss that’s filled with love from a loved one.
