Celebrate all the reasons and ways it is possible to like one another with this wonderful tale of friendship - through good times and bad. Children are really able to see what it means to be true friends in this story and the comical illustrations really helps show what true friends look like. Allow your child(ren) to share pass along a copy of this book as a special Valentine to his/her best friend.

Small Fox is looking for some reassurance from Big Fox in this tale. Through good times or trying times, in nearness or distance, love survives and is always present. This book is a perfect Valentine for children who may be at a difficult point in their life or who's family is suffering through a crisis and reassurance is needed!

These new "Send a Story" books will make for the perfect Valentine! Children love receiving mail, even if it is from someone they see every day! All four of the titles are relatively inexpensive ($4.99 each) and cost only 3 first-class postage stamps to mail. The back cover provides space to address the stories as a postcard, with room on the inside cover for a special note to the receiver! I think they're definitely worth checking out for Valentine's Day this year - and as I made note of above (in bold) there's a book for virtually everyone and every situation!
