The Story of Valentine's Day » (BOARD)

This little board book for preschool children introduces the Valentine s Day holiday with simple language and bright illustrations. Children will learn how the tradition of giving Valentines began long ago in the city of Rome, and how it is continued today within their families and in school classrooms.

Young children will be delighted to learn that from the beginning, Valentine s Day has been a holiday for the very young. The Story of Valentine s Day—through its gentle language and lively illustrations—makes it clear that it was the love of children for the ancient St. Valentine that inspired the very first Valentine card.
