Not only am I a bibliophile (someone obsessed with books), but I am also a certified history and English teacher. It goes without saying that my kids and I visit the library and local bookstores often. Books are all over our house. My kids are even allowed to stay up reading with their bed book lights. So, I wanted to share with you some fun books centering around Valentine’s Day that you can easily check out at the local Wichita area libraries or purchase from our local bookstores.

Valentine’s Day Books to Read for Every Age

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. It’s such a fun holiday. We can focus on love and appreciation. It’s also a fun time to get out the crafts…and the glitter…ok, maybe not the glitter…

Here is a list of books available at bookstores and libraries in the Greater Wichita Area. All links are connected to each book’s catalog page.

**Books-a-holic won’t be listed as it is a resale store. Feel free to call our local Books-a-holic to ask if there is a copy of any of these books are available.
