Great For Little Kids!,
By librarylady61 (Northern Virginia, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Little Mouse's Big Valentine (Turtleback School & Library Binding Edition) (School & Library Binding)
Most of the Valentine stories available don't work well as read alouds for preschoolers, but this one is always a hit, AND it has a nice underlying theme of sharing with friends.It's also a wonderful story to be told with puppets at a story hour, especially if you end by giving all the children a little red valentine of their own!
4.0 out of 5 stars
Pleasant Valentine's Story!,
By History_of_Art_Geek (Phoenix, AZ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Little Mouse's Big Valentine (Paperback)
The watercolor illustrations are cheerfully colored, and loosely rendered. There's very little detail, which I can appreciate with simple stories. Author/illustrator Thacher Hurd conveys his ideas simply, without fanfare. The age recommendation is preschool to first grade, which is appropriate, but I think an alert 3-year old might have the attention span to listen all the way through as well. Hurd succeeds in writing and illustrating an original story about Valentine's Day that deals with friendship and sharing in a positive way. Unlike so many tales associated with this holiday where the main characters compete for the biggest or best valentine, this one is actually about giving and making new friends.
