Valentine's Day is just around the corner and the best gift that you can give your kids is a Valentine Book. There are hundreds of theme-related books online and in the book stores. Pick a fabulous one or two, wrap it up in shiny red paper and put a huge glittery bow on top. A book is so much better than a huge batch of chocolate. A book is a gift that will be treasured, read over and over and create an intimate experience between you and your child. Be sure to inscribe the book with a personal message inside. I always try to write a unique message and be sure to include the date that you gave it. Keep building your child's library with wonderful books that will last him/her a lifetime. Chocolate is a temporary high but books when digested often will get you to higher places in life. Taste a good book and see that it is truly is good. Read on.
