# Be My Valenslime: Valentine's Day Book for Kids - Hardcover

by **Kris Tarantino** (Author), **Cori Doerrfeld** (Illustrator)

**A hilarious and heartwarming picture book about a sweet little monster who _really_ wants to celebrate a not-so-monstery holiday: Valentine's Day.**

"There are powerful messages about the nature of love on almost every page."--_School Library Journal_ (starred review)

Snoodle is an unusual monster. She loves candy hearts, fun parties, fuzzy kittens, fancy hats, sparkly stickers, and . . . valentines! There's just one problem: Monsters _don't do_ Valentine's Day!

And when Snoodle tries to throw a Valentine's Day party for her monster friends, nothing goes right. Every attempt to show them what love looks like turns into monster mayhem! With each disaster, Snoodle tries to be patient and kind, and to not be rude or get easily angered. But if the party isn't perfect, how can Snoodle convince the other monsters to be her Valenslime?

Debut author Kris Tarantino and _New York Times_ bestselling illustrator Cori Doerrfeld bring to life a wonderful cast in this laugh-out-loud exploration of the true meaning of love.
