This review is from: One Zillion Valentines (Paperback)

I've always enjoyed this simple Valentine's day picture book. When Milton and Marvin decide that "valentines aren't just for girls, they're for everyone" they set about procuring valentines to give to everyone in the neighborhood. Money being short, they make their own cards and slip them under people's doors instead of mailing them. (People are delighted.) When they have some left over, they sell their homemade valentines for 5 cents each, so other people can have the joys of giving. Milton laments that they didn't get any valentines themselves, but that isn't quite true, for with the money they made the boys are able to buy a box of candy to share with one another in friendly fashion. This is a sweet book about random acts of kindness and overall generosity, and the straightforward text and cartoony illustrations keep it from being sappy. A good one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Valentines is for everyone!, February 16, 2009

The book shows that valentine doesn't need to come from a store. Love & friendship is self-made & enjoyed by all. Simple book that even a 2 year-old can love ---- though my 8 year-old boy loved it too.
