If you want me to read a book, clap your hands.
If you want me to read a book, listen up and take a look.
If you want me to read a book, clap your hands.

Could it be a moose?
Could it be a train with a bell and a caboose?
Could it be a snake or some sticky glue?
Right here in my pocket is a KISS from me to you!

Flannel Board: "Six Little Valentines"
Six little Valentines were sent to my house,
The first one said, "I love you, From Mouse."
Six little Valentine's in my mailbox,
The second one said, "Be mine, Love Fox."
Six little Valentines full of love,
The third one said, "You are sweet, From Dove."
Six little Valentines just for me,
The fourth one said, "Be my honey, Love Bee."
Six little Valentines mailed with care,
The fifth one said, "Here's a hug, From Bear."
The last little Valentine, from my friend Jay,
This one said, "Happy Valentine's Day!"
