PreS-K—With its bright watercolor and metallic illustrations, this board book will appeal to young children. Throughout, piglets express love and affection to parents, siblings, and friends. The porkers are shown giving small gifts, making valentines, sharing experiences, singing songs, and writing poems to express their feelings. "They say it with flowers./They say it with hearts./They say it with candy and strawberry tarts." A sweet book that is not overly sentimental or romantic.—Erlene Bishop Killeen, Stoughton Area School District, WI
