Ruby Valentine’s favorite day is Valentine’s Day, February 14–gee, who knew?  See plans for a big party in her new house and decorates big time.  She paints, hangs new curtains, bakes, cooks, every room gets a makeover.  She anticipates every need.  But as the day dawns, she wakes up to a mountain full of snow.  The party is cancelled because no one can make it up to her place.  Lovebird, her feathered friend, says that they should move the party to town.  So they do.  They find that a party is only important when you have friends with which to celebrate.  Who knew?  The coloring of the pages elicit a feeling of comfort and coziness.  Same message as countless other stories, just set in mid-winter and Valentine’s Day.
