![Good Morning, Chick [Paperback]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51P9T7V7VCL._AA160_.jpg)
How many times I read this book to my children! The very youngest child can understand the story line and appreciate the repetetive text (which you can edit easily for your own sanity, if necessary).We are introduced to the little chick, his mother, and his home. Danger enters the chick's world in the form of a black, hissing cat, but Mom shields the chick with her big brown wing, and clucks the cat out of the picture. The chick meets a big frog and even falls into the pond and gets wet -- which little children think is terrifically funny.The bright, colorful pictures appeal to the very young and are easy on the adult eye.It doesn't sound like much, but it ends up being a very rich, warm experience to share this book with a little one.My 13 year old saw it today, and went through it with a bg grin on his face; which is why I checked to see if it was still in print. Thankfully, you can enjoy it with children you love, too.

![Waking Up Wendell [Hardcover]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51321md26iL._AA160_.jpg)
Early in the morning a little bird begins to sing - which wake up the entire Fish Street population, one by one. As everyone begins to arise - who will be last to wake up? A fine story of sleeping in and early risers invites kids to understand differences in sleep patterns - and to enjoy the zany story of animals who like to rise at different times, and in different ways.
When our baby received books as gifts, 75% of them were bedtime oriented.I wanted to read to her in the mornings when she was most alert.The book shows how all the animals and plants wake up when the sun rises.The textis simple, but not boring.Though she is only a few months old, our babyresponds well to the contrasting colors (mostly orangey-reds and greens). Because they are portrayed as sleeping huddled together, the bunnies andsheep are hard to discern, though.This book offers a brightly illustratedchoice to parents and children who want to wake up to books.
