BOOK SYNOPSIS
Reviewers and readers really loved this hilarious and pitch-perfect Valentine’s Day picture book, set to the familiar rhythms of “Clementine.” Alison Jackson, author of the Thanksgiving favorite I Know an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie, cleverly replaces the heroine of “Clementine” with a dreamy girl named Valentine who keeps missing what’s right in front of her nose: the love letters being sent her way by a smitten admirer. Brought to life by the larky illustrations of Tricia Tusa, this silly and sweet tale is perfect for little valentines as well as grown-up sweethearts.

AUTHOR BIO
Alison Jackson is the award-winning author of I Know an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie, an Amazon.com best-seller of 1998.

BOOK REVIEWS
This inspired treatment of an age-old tale communicates plenty about love. (Publishers Weekly, starred review) Funny and satisfying. (Kirkus Reviews)
