About the Book
When Objects "Talk" to You. Schoolchildren's anthropomorphic Valentine cards from the 1940s and 1950s. Close to 100 Valentines are shown in full color and in a 3-D format. This well established form of imagery is popular in our culture. The cards shown represent the spirit of anthropomorphism in a visually delightful manner. The double entendre figures of speech just add more fun to the viewing. A book suitable for "children" of ages 5 to 95.

About the Creator
Kristina Kea: From an early age up through graduate school studies and teaching, words have been a source of playful fun for me. Writing the text for this book was a special delight because I really enjoy Valentines as well. Robert Rightmire: While writing about the American artist Rockwell Kent has been the focus of past books and articles, collecting and writing about children’s Valentines is a not so hidden joy.
