This heartwarming picture book combines two much-loved holidays—Groundhog's Day and Valentine's Day—and shares a message about the importance of friendship and community.

Moose is having a Valentine's Day party, and all his friends are excited! Everyone except Groundhog, that is. If Groundhog sees his shadow outside, he'll hide in his hole for six more weeks and miss the party! Determined to have their friend join them, Moose, Squirrel, Bunny, and Porcupine put their heads together and come up with a clever plan.
 
With cozy illustrations by Caldecott Honor award-winning creator Christopher Denise, this season-inspired picture book is perfect for readers who are bursting for spring or snuggling up for six more weeks of winter.

She is the author of a number of published and upcoming picture books, including NEVER EVER TALK TO STRANGERS and A TEACHER FOR BEAR, both published by Scholastic Book Clubs; the VAMPIRINA BALLERINA series, illustrated by LeUyen Pham, published by Disney-Hyperion, which has been adapted into the Emmy-nominated hit television series VAMPIRINA from Disney Junior; PIGLOO, illustrated by Lorna Hussey, published by Henry Holt; GROUNDHUG DAY, illustrated by Christopher Denise (Disney-Hyperion, 2017); BUSY-EYED DAY, illustrated by Frann Preston-Gannon (Beach Lane Books, 2018); SUNNY'S TOW TRUCK SAVES THE DAY (Abrams, 2019), illustrated by Christopher Lee; and MOUSE CALLS (Beach Lane Books, 2022), illustrated by Erin Kraan.. Someday, she hopes to write books about what she does know: whistling, baking blue-ribbon-winning chocolate chip cookies, and schlepping kids around in a minivan, if she can find a way to make any of that interesting. She lives with her family in Virginia.

5.0 out of 5 stars Holidays, celebrating, meaning of little things
Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2024
Verified Purchase
I had purchased this book for the combination of GroundHog Day and that of Valentines. I have always enjoyed sharing the heartfelt stories, and this one is definitely all that. It's colorful, it's meaningful, it's of celebrating the little things, holidays with friends, doing ones best to include all and make things special. All while combing two holidays that are so close together. We enjoyed the book, its overall story, and it's cute .
It arrived quickly, in good condition, was for my 3yr old grandchild.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for grades 1 through 3
Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2021

This book not only teaches about friends showing concern and helping each other but also gives a nice introduction to holidays. My first graders loved it and it provided a great opportunity to explain Groundhog's Day traditions as well as introducing other holidays. It also led to a great discussion about how to work together to help others and the importance to listening to others. I usually teach third grade and I know they would love it, as well. The illustrations are absolutely amazing!

1.0 out of 5 stars Pictures are Cut off and incomplete
Reviewed in Canada on February 8, 2023

I bought this book to read to children. The pictures are incomplete or missing parts on the page to the point it takes away from the story. I ended up playing a you tube version instead. Very disappointed with this purchase.
