Synopsis
[from the dust cover flaps:] "Just before the fourth-grade Valentine's Day party, the valentines mysteriously disappear from the class boxes! Who could be responsible? "Maybe," Tammy Collins speculates, "it's possible whoever took them didn't want to be embarrassed by not getting very many valentines." Could it be that Tammy herself is behind the missing cards? Tammy's life certainly has been confusing lately. Her parents have recently separated and she wonders why her father left. Is something wrong with her? And her attempt to form a secret club backfires when her "surprise"--her flying mouse, Itty-Bitty--refused to perform at the first meeting. Tammy's visits to a local poet for some valentine-writing advice leads to a friendship that reveals the satisfying rewards of giving love to others--to her school friends, to Papadakis, to Itty-Bitty, and to her father. As Tammy helps Papadakis take his first steps with a walker, she takes the first steps toward gaining confidence in her own special qualities. It's a truly happy Valentine's Day indeed! Laura Hawkins's lively story about a young girl's blossoming self-confidence will entertain and inspire young readers and fans of her previous Riverview books, Figment, your dog, speaking and The Cat That Could Spell Mississippi. Laura Hawkins is a full-time writer who lives in Herington, Kansas. Valentine to a Flying Mouse is the third book in a series about a group of fourth-grade girls who live in Riverview; it follows Figment, Your Dog, Speaking and The Cat That Could Spell Mississippi."
