With the help of his understanding classmates and his teacher, Dewey finally succeeds in declaring his love for Earth and his friends.

"Mack's pencil, watercolor, and digital illustrations work in tandem with Staub's marvelously inventive language to ensure readers understand Dewey's Eighty-N words. And the characters' facial expressions and posture speak volumes all on their own. A powerful message about the support of friends and defusing a bully wrapped in a sweet Valentine tale." -- Kirkus Reviews
