1. A Valentine's Note from Mr. Prickles and Miss Pointypants!

Dear Mr. and Miss Pricklyhearts

Love is in the air, and what better way to celebrate Valentine’s Day than to receive romantic advice from our favorite prickly pals? Resident platonic porcupines Mr. Prickles and Miss Pointypants are ready to answer your questions!

Do you have any relationship advice for a badger (night animal) and squirrel (morning animal)? Our timing is always off and we never see each other.

Relationships are all about compromise. Perhaps split the difference in your schedules, and meet for a noontime woodland stroll or a midnight swim in the lake?

What’s your idea of a perfect date? How will you two be celebrating Valentine’s Day this year?

Any time we can spend together is perfect, as far as we’re concerned — whether we’re sticking around at home or out watching the moon rise. This Valentine’s Day, we’ll snuggle up together (carefully) and enjoy our favorite meal: twigs, bark, clover, and cabbage.

I don’t have a special someone. What do I do on Valentine’s Day?

Whatever you do, don’t spend the day pointedly glaring at the world; trust us, it gets boring fast. Get out there and frolic with your friends! As we always say, it’s much nicer being alone with someone else.

 How do porcupines show their love to one another?

We show our love by doing whatever we can to make each other feel less lonely. This usually involves lots of hugging, one of our favorite pastimes. Also, we like to send each other Prickly Love Notes. Feel free to download our favorites and email or snail mail them to your loved ones.

What do I get for Valentine’s Day for someone who has everything?

That’s easy. Nothing points the way to romance like a book, especially our own quill-fated love story!

Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! Let’s get out there and spread some LOVE!

2. Let's Hug Carefully. And Often.

Not only is Mr. Prickles: A Quill-Fated Love Story the perfect, fresh story for this Valentine's Day, but the author and illustrator also happen to be creative busy bees who have put together a few BONUS items sure to enhance Cupid's special day.

Haven't picked out your valentines yet? Look no further: click here for beautifully illustrated and clever cards and click here for some black and white ones that you can color in yourself!

We don't have to remind you that everyone loves STICKERS. Print these out on Avery labels (style #5293) and use them as envelope seals or lapel decoration.

Calling all teachers and librarians! The color-in valentines and sheet of stickers make a perfect activity to follow storytime.
