Somebody Loves You Mr. Hatch!

This book is my favorite Valentine's Day picture book. It's a book with a very powerful message about the importance of love and kindness in our lives. It leaves you with a warm, fuzzy feeling and an understanding of how good it is to feel loved and how important it is make others feel loved. My students really enjoyed listening to this story today. We had some great discussions about love and kindness towards others in everyday life.
