Valentine Schmalentine - Sweethearts Dance. Valentine Schmalentine Clifford doesn't even realize it's Valentine's Day until Norville tells him. Norville notes that he's seen Jorge, Flo and Zo and Evan all giving Valentine's Day gifts and he's even working on a necklace for his Mom. Clifford decides to make a gift for Emily Elizabeth, but Daffodil sees what he's doing and makes an even fancier gift. Pretty soon, it's an all-out competition to see who can give Emily Elizabeth the better gift. Sweethearts Dance Valentine's Day brings with it the school Sweethearts Dance. Emily Elizabeth is excited about attending for the first time (and dancing with her father), but soon becomes nervous. Her best friends all know fancy dances, but she doesn't know how to dance at all. She considers skipping the dance when she isn't helped much by a book she checks out from the library on dancing.
