Cute--I think Zachary liked the cat images. Would be a good one to read to him again when he is older.

This one has a bit of the, teasing/mean to someone whom you like. I'm sure I could get criticism for saying this of a picture book, but I really believe we need to get away from the habit of teaching/telling kids that we pick on those we like, as if that's ok. We shouldn't normalize or condone mean behavior, whether it's toward someone we dislike, someone we like, or someone we like like.

Splat has a bit of a crush on Kitten. It's Valentine's Day and he wants to give her a card. Should he? Does he? Cute story.

This might be the only Splat book I don't love. Splat really like Kitten and wants to give her a valentine. But he is not sure. When ever he sees kitten she pulls his hears, pokes his belly, and tells him he smells. When I was growing up you were told that the boy picking on you, did it because they liked you. Well that was a few decades ago. And while in the end of this book you find out that Kitten was petting his fur, and like the sound Splat made when you touched his belly, I still think it sends the wrong message. We need to be teaching kids to show feelings in non-harmful ways. To one person, they are playing, to another they are being bullied. Yep, this is a total thumbs down for me.
