Be Mine by Brenda Ponnay
Children's colorful book about Valentine's using animals and some traits they have. Problem is the words are too small to read and it's hard to enlarge them on a tablet.
Like lobster one the best as I'm from the northeast. Colors don't blend into the background very well. 19 different animals are featured.
Other works by the author and friends are highlighted at the end.

This wasn't a storybook as much as just a collection of cartoon animals with the sort of slogans that might be found in boxes of classroom giveaway valentines (with a couple that seem misplaced for this age group--"Hey foxy!" for example.)

An adorable cute comically illustrated child’s book having to deal with “be mine” on valentine’s day. Easy reading, funny and cute ---would be great story to share and talk about all the animals in it any time of the year! It made me smile!

Like the Valentine's cards kids give to their friends. Each animal has a sweet lovable message for the reader. It's cute and colorful. Loved the crab! Perfect for your 3-5 year old as they start learning to read.

Generic Valentine's Cards

This isn't a story it's simply page after page of generic Valentine cards. The sort kids give out in kindergarten.

Works better as a board book for ages 0-2 than as a picture book. Cute but no actual story—just different and inanimate saying I love you in different ways.

Be Mine by Brenda Ponnay is a whimsical tale filled with charming animals expressing their love for their special little Valentine's.

Preschoolers will be tickled by the lively text and bright and cheerful illustrations. A squirrel that says, "I'm nuts about you" a lizard who says, "I'm stuck on you" and a rocket ship on its way to the moon are just a few of the darling characters your child will encounter, Each page expresses love in a clever and unique way.

I recommend picking up a copy of Be Mine for your littlest Valentine.

I SO WISH I COULD JUST COPY/PASTE THE WHOLE BOOK IN HERE!
SO CUTE! and FUN!

Using catch phrases like:
*Hey cupcake!
*I'm nuts about you
*I'm head over heels for you!
*Oh, love bug!
*and more

This book is a DARLING way to tell someone you love them.
PERFECT for a bedtime story to a child.

Adorable pictures!
Grab a copy of this book and share the love ")

Cute illustrations and sweet messages.

One of the messages,though, says "I bulb you" (fish illustration) instead of "I blub you".
If it is a typo, how could that even happen in a book with such few words? And that nobody noticed it at such a large font?

This book puts a twist on some commonly used phrases to tell you love someone.

Good for little ones as text is limited. The illustrations are cute, fun, and colourful.

didn't love the book

The pictures are okay. The phrases are cute. Overall, the book could have a better flow. I'm not sure my three year old will care for it.
