Mr. Goat's Valentine
Author: Eve Bunting
llustrator: Kevin Zimmer
Genre: Fantasy and Science Fiction
Awards: None
Grade: PK-2
Mr. Goat's Valentine is about Mr. Goat getting ready to celebrate Valentine's Day by buying what he says, "first love" presents. He gets her chocolates and flowers and even composes a song for her. At the end, he gives his presents to his mom who is his first love.
I would use this in my classroom because it is a funny story about Valentine's Day. Mr. Goat buys things that look bad and small bad, but to him they are the nicest things he can buy. I think this is a good book for students in second grade and below because it is easy to follow and easy to read. I would use this book in a unit in relationship to Valentine's Day or in a social studies unit dealing with holidays.
