Be Mine, Porcupine

Animals that are sweet (but not too cuddly) get a little love in this Valentine’s Day lift-the-flap board book!

I may not be soft and tickly
In fact I’m pretty prickly
I’m a poky little porcupine
But will you be my valentine?

Valentine’s Day isn’t just for teddy bears and puppies! All animals deserve valentines—even ones that aren’t soft or cuddly. Porcupines, slugs, alligators, bats, and more get matching valentines in this sweet, rhyming book that’s perfect for sharing with the ones you love.
