Ballad of Valentine
by Allison Jackson

This hysterical love story to the tune of "Clementine" follows the trials of a man who wants to tell a mountain woman that he loves her. He uses every form of communication he can think of... pony express, telegraph, messenger pigeon, smoke signals, and mail, but something always spoils the delivery! Will she ever get his message?

You will love the comical illustrations as well as the funny lyrics that are, of course, only complete when you sing them with a friend! You may even get some ideas for making your own Valentines this year!
