About this book

When a shipment of mischievous little cupids arrives in the small town of Hamlet just in time for Valentine’s Day, a fourth-grade class and their unflappable teacher, Miss Earth, find themselves in the middle of magical matchmaking mayhem. Notes go astray, crushes get complicated, and best friends must navigate feelings and fallout—with plenty of laughs along the way. Light fantasy and school humor keep pages turning as the class learns about kindness, honesty, and the consequences of well-meant meddling. A fun choice for readers who enjoy fast, funny classroom adventures.

Setting: a modern-day small town (Hamlet, Vermont), mostly at an elementary school around Valentine’s Day
