PreS-Gr 1—Foxy and his friend Emily return in this charming tale in which he uses his magic to help Emily make a Valentine's Day card for someone special. Foxy reminds the little girl about all of her favorite things, and she draws them on the card. These items range from balloons to hearts and to a garden of flowers. With a flick of his tail, Foxy makes everything she loves appear, and sometimes even things that she doesn't love, like larks and tarts instead of hearts. Children will delight in this whimsical story and its big, vibrant mixed-media drawings, and they will connect with Emily's love of her special friend, Foxy. The text is simple and flows easily throughout. A great addition for holiday collections.—Megan McGinnis, Sachem Public Library, Holbrook, NY
