Descripción: Críticas A beautiful celebration of love and how different that may look to others celebrating Valentine's Day. --ReaderTotzA perfect book for kids who find the whole Valentine's Day holiday icky and overrated.-- Book RiotAn enduring message of friendship. -School Library JournalCharming.-- Salt Lake City TribuneFor those who want to show the ones they love they care without being all mushy (or spending any money)-Kirkus ReviewsHeartwarmingly funny. --Entertainment WeeklyRecognizes that you can don't need sugary hearts and mushy sentiment to show you care. --NewsdayThis book swears it's not a Valentine because it trades hearts and flowers for drippy glue, paper planes and the jelly half of a peanut butter sandwich (which makes it that much more special). -- Today.comWhat makes the book so poignant, is that the boy pays real attention to his crush and is doing his best to deliver gifts that will be truly meaningful to her.-Publishers Weekly This book is not a valentine. It doesn't have lacey edges or sugary hearts. But it is full of lucky rocks, secret hiding spots, and gumball machine treasures. This is a book about waiting in line and wishing for cinnamon buns. About recognizing that if you care so much about someone not thinking you care, maybe you really do. But wait--isn't that exactly what love is about? Maybe this book is sort of a valentine after all. A testament to handmade, wacky, bashful, honest love--sure to win over the hearts of all readers--this offering from debut picture book author Carter Higgins and children's book veteran Lucy Ruth Cummins is the perfect gift to celebrate every relationship, from parent to child, sibling to sibling, partner to partner, crush to crush.
