Love, Ruby Valentine

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Lynne Avril Cravath. Ruby spends the five days leading up to Valentine's Day making cards, baking cookies, and filling goody bags for her friends and neighbors. After all that hard work, however, she's exhausted and sleeps through her favorite day. Will everyone be angry if her gifts are a day late? The rhymes are sometimes clunky, but Cravath's illustrations have plenty of pizzazz.
