Little Golden Book Series

Everyone loves something—it’s true! In this rhyming book, Elmo explains how everyone has something special they care about—babies love noise and kids love toys; Bert loves pigeons and pigeons love to coo. And, as Elmo loves to remind readers throughout the book, to toddler's delight, “Elmo loves you!”

While this is a great present for Valentine’s Day, it's also a sweet, reassuring poem about love that kids will enjoy year round.
