Twosomes: love poems from the animal kingdom

Do animals celebrate Valentine’s Day? Nobody knows for sure. But this funny little book imagines how some of them declare their love, affection, or friendship any day of the year.

Ranging from dogs and cats and other pets to some you wouldn’t want to pet, such as sharks and porcupines, acclaimed poet Marilyn Singer’s captivating couplets and Lee Wildish’s expressively humorous illustrations provide a Valentine’s Day gift for kids who wouldn’t be caught dead being lovey-dovey.
