After several unsuccessful attempts to give his special valentine to someone, Little Mouse finally finds just the right recipient.

Early one morning, Mouse follows his sister around the house. She's making something special. It's red and lacy and very pretty. Snip! Snip! Snip! What will it be?

Shh…! Little Mouse has a secret! Hes found a delicious-looking apple and doesnt want to share a bite. So he buries it, and no matter how many of his friends ask what he hid, Little Mouse wont tell. But when a tree sprouts from the seeds of the fruit, there are enough apples for everyone-and Little Mouse realizes some secrets are even better when theyre shared. Award-winning illustrator Éric Battut has created a charming picture book that will delight-and teach-children. Kids will delight in knowing more than Mouse as they watch the apple tree sprout behind himSimple text and illustrations encourage sharing, but avoid preachinessSubtle “green” subtext about the abundance and importance of nature ÉRIC BATTUT was born in Chamalières, France, where he still lives and works today. After studying economics and civil rights for six years, he went on to study illustration at LEcole Emile Cohl in Lyon. He has since created many successful and award-winning books for children.

Join Mouse from If You Give a Mouse a Cookie as he celebrates Valentine’s Day with all the friends he loves.

A nutty and clever buddy story that celebrates cooperation, perfect for fans of Duck and Goose. Meet Mouse and Chipmunk, two young rodents who want the same thing—a big, beautiful nut! But who deserves it more? After all, Chipmunk and the Nut read together and lie in the grass and stare at the clouds. Chipmunk wants that nut! And Mouse and the Nut play tic-tac-toe and have a dance party together. Mouse also wants that nut! But then Squirrel comes along and claims the Nut for his own. What’s a rodent to do? "A winning combination of words and pictures for beginning readers and listeners."--Kirkus, Starred review "While giggling over Mouse and Chipmunk’s antics, readers will easily relate to the way they vacillate between selfishness and selflessness, and Valentine’s watercolor forest, awash in browns and greens, is an inviting place to learn about sharing and friendship. Who knew inanimate friends could be so rewarding?"--Publishers Weekly, Starred review "Streamlined text in short big-print sentences with dialogue in speech balloons is friendly to beginning readers as well as readers-aloud, and the flights of fancy into each critter’s friendship with the nut are highly giggleworthy."--The Bulletin "Expertly drawn and designed to keep the action moving as tails fly off the page. This book quietly introduces the topics of sharing and friendship by example, echoing the voice of young children."--School Library Journal
