Sorry but this one wasn’t for me. I really enjoyed the first two Honey Moon books though.

Thank you very much to NetGalley, Rabbit Publishers and Diamond Book Distributors for the opportunity to read this book.

Honey Moon is in gym class but is puzzled. There are no balls or jump ropes to use. Why does the gym teacher have a cd in her hand? When Honey finds out, she is devastated. She doesn't want to learn how to dance with a boy! She finds out later that there will be a Valentine dance that her parents expect her to go to! When her mom gives her these romantic valentines to the kids in her class, she is horrified. What will the boys think?

There are more adventures that she goes through before going to the Valentine dance that shows us how important it is to be truthful. Relationships with parents and friends are discussed in terms of hurting feelings. This story is fun to read! The color illustrations are a nice touch.

Honey Moon is the younger sister of Harry Moon. This is a great series for late primary/junior students, particularly girls. Honey seems to always find trouble. Valentine's Day is coming up and they are learning to dance at school. She does not want to dance with a boy and when she finds out there is a dance coming up, she does whatever she can not to attend. She is cute and funny with some of her ideas and activities. She does get angry and when she damages something, rather than admit it, she tries to repair it. This only gets her in deeper. Who will she have to go to the dance with? Will she get in trouble with her parents? Will she be allowed to go to her Valentine's Party at school?

This story had all the stereotypes of Valentine's Day at school. There was the Valentine's Mailboxes, cards for each student, the party and the teasing about boyfriends and girlfriends. The lessons of course about admitting your mistakes, not jumping to conclusions, being nice to others are there and could be discussed if the book is being read with an adult or as a read aloud. There are not a lot of illustrations, but those that are present are cute and add to the story. A good addition to the series. A great addition to family, classroom, school and public libraries. The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book via Netgalley.

This is a great Valentine’s story. Honey Moon is hilarious and gets into lots of trouble. She doesn’t want to go to the dance with a boy, so she does everything she can to make them not like her. But this backfires on her. The dance at the end also provided a great twist. It wasn’t what Honey was expecting.

This story reminded me of when my class would celebrate Valentine’s Day when I was a kid. When picking out the cards for everyone, you had to make sure that the saying on the inside was appropriate. You wouldn’t want a boy in your class to get the wrong impression because you gave him a romantic Valentine. Honey takes that idea to the extreme by writing nasty things in the boys’ cards. That ends up backfiring on her because the boys like the gross things she wrote! Valentine’s Day is a fun holiday but it can also cause problems in the classroom.

I really liked this story. It gives a different perspective on a typical Valentine’s Day story, because Honey does everything she can to avoid getting a date to the dance.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher on NetGalley.

This book (and the entire series) is a wonderful way to read young readers. The books include colorful pictures and the stories have a positive message that does not travel into being preachy. I appreciate how this edition included a variety of craft ideas at the end. Perfect for reading at home, before bedtime, or as a classroom book leading into interesting projects.
