Book Overview
Alphonse and his readers investigate shapes. Alphonse, in his attempts to paint a Valentine, creates a square, a circle and a triangle by mistake. His frustration builds and so does the humour and silliness of the situation. Finally the elusive heart is painted by Alphonse's supportive little side-kick (who happens to be a mouse).

Alphonse is a Pleasure
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This book is a charming and hilarious way to expose kids to shapes. It is short and sweet and I have been reading it to preschool classes for 8 years and they love it.
Fun to read aloud- one a few Valentine Books for young child
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book is great fun to read to 3-6 year olds. It reinforces knowledge of shapes and displays a sense of humor. It is essential to practice reading the book before reading aloud. My kindergarten students loved it! Some students memorized it, "reading" every page with expression! It is a wonderful gift for Valentine's Day!
