Bookroo's summary

In the Black Lagoon, Hubie faces a Valentine's Day dilemma: crafting a card for a classmate. Forbidden from drawing his favorite things, he must choose between hearts and cupids. But who will be the recipient of his creation? As he navigates this heart-filled challenge, Hubie learns unexpected lessons about love and friendship. Will he find the courage to express his feelings, or will he end up eating worms instead? Dive into this humorous tale of young love and creativity, where every card holds the potential for surprise.

From the publisher

Cupid strikes in the Black Lagoon! Everyone has to make a card for Valentine’s Day, including Hubie. What’s worse, he has to give it to someone in his class. Plus, he can’t draw a green-colored square or a dinosaur. He has to draw a pink or red heart or a cupid. He’d rather eat worms! Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards. Chapter Books is an imprint of Spotlight, a division of ABDO.
