"A great choice for storytime." —School Library Journal
This heartwarming picture book combines two much-loved holidays—Groundhog's Day and Valentine's Day—and shares a message about the importance of friendship and community.
Moose is having a Valentine's Day party, and all his friends are excited! Everyone except Groundhog, that is. If Groundhog sees his shadow outside, he'll hide in his hole for six more weeks and miss the party! Determined to have their friend join them, Moose, Squirrel, Bunny, and Porcupine put their heads together and come up with a clever plan.
With cozy illustrations by Caldecott Honor award-winning creator Christopher Denise, this season-inspired picture book is perfect for readers who are bursting for spring or snuggling up for six more weeks of winter.

Praise for Groundhug Day:Publishers Weekly, starred review
* "February holidays collide in this warm and funny story... Denise’s digital illustrations have the lushness of oil paintings, and his image of Groundhog staring at his shadow in shock, his robe tied tight and mug of coffee dropped on the fieldstone walkway, is a showstopper.... Pace nimbly balances the rewards of trying new things against the necessity of compromise." -
"A moose and his forest friends are busy planning a Valentine’s Day party, but one aspect of the organizing stops them in their tracks.... The light and shadows in the artwork are magical, a golden glow pervading the spreads. Readers may learn a thing or two about both being a friend and getting over their own fears."Kirkus Reviews
