On Valentine’s Day, Mice are Nice
Who has one long tail, one small nose, and wants to celebrate Valentine's Day with you? This guy…
And so do some of his friends…
Ages 2 – 5
The little mouse family are in a big hurry because they have so many Valentines to deliver to all of their friends. Follow along as they slip, slide and maybe even unintentionally hide, in a snowy winter woodland.
Ages 3 – 5
Little Mouse is very curious about what big sister Minka is up to and so he follows her all around the house as she looks for things to make a special surprise. (Valentine's Day is one of many "firsts" that Mouse experiences in Lauren Thompson's delightful series of books.)
By Felicia Bond
Ages 4 – 7
There's only one little mouse in this Valentine's Day book about a girl who gathers up fallen hearts and thoughtfully crafts them into special gifts for her friends but the author is famous for drawing another little mouse in a well-known children's classic (and its "sequels" too!).
By Jill Esbaum
Ages 4 – 7
It's not clear whether this story takes place on Valentine's or some other cold and snowy winter's day but it does feature a shivering mouse, a startled woman and some surprising chaos that just might end in an even more surprising friendship.
Ages 3 – 7
Count the mice as they venture out on the ice only to learn that the best place to be is safe and warm is together.
Ages 2 -4
Love isn't just for Valentine's Day. Love truly can always be found everywhere, if only you just stop and look for it. (You can also look for a teeny tiny mouse who is hiding somewhere in every picture in this very sweet book!)
And if you'd like to make your own little Valentine's Mouse, follow the simple steps in this picture outline:
Happy Valentine's Day…from the little mice and me! 🙂
