Bruel's fractious feline takes on another holiday. This time, Bad Kitty is not happy because while Puppy got piles of pink and red and purple punny valentines, she got zero. When prompted to think of all the things she has done since last Valentine's Day, she remembers stealing all the eggs at Easter, scaring light-skinned Uncle Murray on Halloween, and knocking over the Christmas tree. Suddenly, she becomes anxious: What if no one loves her? Maybe if she gives someone a valentine, she will get one. Puppy, dressed as Cupid (and drooling as usual), seems an available candidate. However, Kitty's attempts are less than loving. "Roses are red, / Violets are blue, / Sugar is sweet, / YOU SMELL BAD!" Her second attempt is even worse. Third time's the charm, when she admits to maybe liking Puppy, and he eats it up (literally). When he coughs up a reply (again, literally), Kitty loves her valentine…but Valentine's Day? Too drooly. Kitty's scads of fans will be in love with this short holiday confection. Those not into the mushy stuff will be right there with her, and all will enjoy the four tear-out valentines that come with the book. (This book was reviewed digitally.) A taste of holiday hilarity while fans wait for the next chapter book. (Picture book. 2-8) Copyright (c) Kirkus Reviews, used with permission.
