About this listen
New York Times best-selling adult novelist Adriana Trigiani presents a heartwarming picture book, adapted for audio, about a how a family comes together to celebrate Valentine's Day.
Mia Valentina Amore loves valentines. After all, her name means My Valentine. When she wakes up on Valentine's Day, it looks like just another morning in the rickety old Amore house in the Blue Ridge mountains of Appalachia. But over the course of the day, her home is transformed into the House of Love. Mia and her mama festoon the halls, build a gumdrop tree, bake cupcakes, and most importantly, make valentines for all six of her siblings. But when Mia doesn't receive her own valentine, she wonders if Mama could have forgotten her.
New York Times best-selling novelist and filmmaker Adriana Trigiani has crafted a tender mother-daughter story that celebrates Valentine's Day or any day that brings family together - a story that affirms it doesn't matter where you come from as long as that place is full of love.

“Trigiani’s sentimental prose is matched by Bates’s nostalgic, rose-hued watercolor, gouache, and pencil illustrations; the pairing makes for a heartfelt and sensitive holiday homage.” (Publishers Weekly)
“A sweet read for anyone who appreciates simple expressions of joy and the tenderness of a child’s holiday cheer.” (School Library Journal)
“Narrator Jasmine Guy infuses warmth into this classic children's Valentine's Day story. Moreover, Guy's warmth carries the audiobook's message of unconditional love as demonstrated by the family and their home on this and every day. Guy's storytelling and the upbeat melody of the music may beckon listeners to play this sweet tale on loop.” (AudioFile)
