Dear VIB
A bookclub treat for you – with a round-up of classic Valentine’s books. Every little child should know how much they are loved – I think I tell Miss Marnie hundreds of times a day.
But, why not share one of these sweet titles with your little one this Valentine’s Day? They would also make a cute gift for a new mummy or daddy.
Lots of Love
