Simple and cute, a good book for toddlers but not enough for preschoolers, short and sweet Cute enough, but not the candyloving story of my heart, which is sitelinkMax's Chocolate Chicken.
Library copy.Read with Naomi, Julia, amp Simon This is a cute series by Kevin Henkes for several holidays, there is a book based around an appropriate treat.
This one is about a chocolate heart and it clearly states its about Valentine's Day, What is fun about the stories is that even though they each feature the treat, they are not cookie cutter.
Each one has a unique story with developed characters from Henkes picture books, Lilly is in a few books by Henkes, but Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse and Julius Baby of the World are the ones we've read.
I found Lilly's personality intact, This is a book that children will really like, I thought that it was an okay book, It wasn't my favorite. The illustrations were nice, but the story didn't grab my attention, I would give one and a half to Lilly's Chocolate Heart, The simple humor of Kevin Henkes sparkles very nicely in the creation of this tiny booklet that would be perfect for a toddler or even one older than a toddler! on Valentine's Day! : My justabouttoturnsix year old little girl and fellow chocaholic adores this book.
We've read it so many times together that she knows each page by heart,
Lilly is a cute little mouse who decides to save her last Valentine's Day chocolate heart.
But where shall she put it Where will it remain safe and clean She searches throughout her home but nothing will do.
It's far too dusty under the bed, the picture frames are too narrow the heart will surely fall off amp get lost!, the bookshelves are too crammed with books.
Finally, Lilly decides the best place to keep the heart safe is inside her belly, When she's finished enjoying her last treat she wonders aloud when Valentine's Day will come around again,
This is an adorable little hardback filled with charming drawings of Lilly's pastel world, I disagree that the packaging will turn off older kids, The light colored palette and lively drawings are exactly what attracted my daughter well, that and the chocolate heart!.
Boy's, however, will probably steer clear of this one I know my son runs when we pull this one out : The charming board books featuring favorite preschool characters from Kevin Henkes are: Henkes is always brilliant.
In this book, Lilly is trying to find a place for her chocolate heart, She ends up eating it, Kinda silly, kinda cute, good for babies and toddlers readaloud, Children loved its silliness handsdown!

Cute board book, with the same character, Lilly, from the book, "Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse, " Fun illustrations and a storyline similar to "Squirrel is Hungry" by Satoshi Kitamura, So cute! AND, about chocolate, . . bonus! Atta girl Lily !
A girl after my own heart,
We know the best place to 'hide' a chocolate heart is in your mouth !!!! This was an adorable "Lilly" book.
It's nearly bedtime on Valentine's Day and she has one chocolate heart left and she wants to save it forever.
So she looks for the perfect place for it, . . but can't figure out 'where', . . until she feels her tummy is perfect, . . Myyear old granddaughter and I both enjoyed this as I read it to her, She even took it after and 'read' it, Lily searches for a place to put her last piece of Valentine candy,
The ending accurately captures the children and holiday candy, Lilly saved the best part for last! This story is about a mouse, Lilly, that has one red chocolate heart left at the end of Valentines Day.
She ponders what to do with the chocolate heart but eventually decides to eat it, This book contains illustrations that open the readers mind to imagination, The reader is given the opportunity to use their imagination in correlating the mouse with a person and the task at hand.
This book has a cheerful demeanor that invites the children to identify with the circumstance at hand, The book efficiently exemplifies the significance of using thought progression to overcome an obstacle, I am under the impression that this book is aimed towards preschool because it teaches children to use different deliberation strategies to complete a task.
Eh I thought this book was okay, I enjoyed that she was trying to find the perfect spot for the chocolate, and I would have chosen the same spot in the end.
: I also think it is an interesting way to explain how something may not fit because the place is "too dusty.
. . too messy too warm etc. " However, this story really didn't catch or even keep my attention for too long let alone my younger children.
Even though it really speaks to me chocolate wise, . . I wouldn't add this book to our collection permanently, This is a really cute, and short board book that's great for leading into Valentine's Day, She's trying to find where to put her chocolate to keep it safe, . . Her solution is my favorite solution too : Borrow this one, As sweet as it isand it's a nice gift its topic limits the fun to February, sitelinkSee why it is a 'must read' even though it is a Valentine's book, This was actually a very cute story! I was afraid that it being a Lilly story, it would be long, but it isn't at all.
It would be a cute read aloud one on one to see if the child can guess what Lilly will do with her chocolate heart.
Lilly is looking for the perfect place to put her chocolate heart, I am pairing this book with another
book about prepositions, The students and I will act out the prepositional phrases in the book with our own chocolate heart.
Then they can choose to do what Lilly does at the end of the book or they can make up another ending for their heart.
