Review by Johnny Boo, age 5
Valentine the Porcupine Dances Funny

Valentine the Porcupine is about a radio with a porcupine who says, "Will someone dance with me?" Her momma says, "Strange is cool," and Valentine says, "I believe you, Momma."

The pictures are awesome. My favorite picture is when Valentine is holding the blowfish up. I would recommend this book to silly people.
