Description
The origins of Valentine's Day are a bit murky at best, but this day of romance and friendship seems to date all the way back to the 1300s. Of course, people weren't buying each other cards and balloons back then, so our modern customs have melded with medieval traditions. Readers will love diving into the back story of this holiday, which is about much more than chocolate and Cupid. Twenty of the most fascinating facts are supported by accessible explanations and bright photographs. Graphic organizers offer more essential information about this fun topic, an intriguing introduction to curricular cultural studies.
