The Story of Valentine's Day by Nancy Skarmeas, Stacy
Pickett-Venturi (Illustrator), Stacy Venturi-Pickett (Illustrator)
In only 200 words, author Skarmeas tells the story of how Valentine's
Day came into being. In simple words that every child can understand,
here is the story of the kindly Valentine who cared for the children
of Rome, who prayed for a miracle for a blind child, and who is remembered
each February 14. Artist Pickett has painted the scenes in bright colors
from the schoolroom scenes to those of ancient Rome. This book is unusual
in that it briefly explains the history of a holiday to toddlers.
