Valentine’s Day… A holiday both adults and kids celebrate but in different ways. While parents head to dinner and bring flowers, kids pass out candy grams, Valentine notes and dress in red during school.

I love celebrating holidays by reading about it with my kids. Many of these selections are familiar characters my kids already love, but with a Valentine twist. They’re perfect to read with your own kids or with a roomful of children for story time. They’re sure to be an excellent addition to your reading list come February!
