K-3I Can Read Book series.
It's Valentine's Day on the farm, and Minnie and Moo dress up in cupid costumes, and shoot love poems attached to arrows at "the needy." However, they send the farmer's wife a poem intended for the turkeys and the farmer a ditty written for the goats. This series takes nothing seriously, except the unobtrusive aids (simplified vocabulary; zany illustrations; clever language; and a fast-moving plot) it provides beginning readers.
