Valentine's Day in the Village

A Valentine's Day story about community, belonging, and kindess, set in an idyllic small town.

From the author of Thanksgiving in the Woods and A Simple Christmas on the Farm comes a new countryside holiday tale for Valentine's Day about community, belonging, and kindness.

A girl notices that not everyone is looking forward to Valentine's Day. Some people are new to the community, some are lonely, others are missing loved ones. But then she comes up with a brilliant idea! With the support of her baker grandfather and her classmates, she organizes a town square hunt for valentine cards that people can exchange for a cookie. Soon everyone wants to help, and a new town festival is born. Food trucks, bingo, and live music bring it all together for a fabulous Valentine's Day in the village.

Featuring the rural nostalgia of small-town Americana, this beautiful story centers on the power of community, belonging, and kindness.
