The Heart Break
Meet Cupid. It's Valentine's Day, and he's on a mission to spark romance—while dreaming he'll find a love of his own. But when his arrows go hilariously astray, things get messy fast!
Before long, the whole zoo is lovestruck! From swooning monkeys to penguins proposing, Cupid's magic shoots wildly off course.
Tired and out of arrows, he decides to take a break from the mushy stuff, wondering if he'll ever find his perfect match—or is love just one big misfire?
The Heart Break is a laugh-out-loud, rhyming picture book bursting with wild surprises, plenty of heart, and with a sweet reminder that true love blooms in its own time.
A family favourite read-aloud for Valentine's Day—or any day that needs a little love and laughter. Perfect for bedtime, classrooms, holiday traditions, or as a heartfelt gift.
