Full of songs for animals of all kinds to help them greet the new day. Fun rhymes to sing with your little ones every morning, illustrated with cute pictures. The Green Parent 20041201 This wonderfully written poetry book is a great resource for any key stage one classroom. Each short poem refers to a different type on animal, from slugs to sloths. In fact, almost every type imaginable is referred to. As the title suggests, each poem tells the story of sleepy heads rising for a new and exciting day. These are ideal to incorporate into morning registration. The book is beautifully illustrated with colourful drawings which complement the humorous poems. They are perfect for reading aloud as part of a literacy lesson, or purely for enjoyment. -- BA(Ed) English Specialist, Durham University 5 to 7 Educator 20050201


Animated by inventive rhymes and varied rhythms, this import-companion to Animal Lullabies (2003)-makes a perfect tool for getting young sleepyheads up and going. Generally urged on by animal parents, a range of creatures from familiar farmyard denizens to jellyfish, slugs, a baby skunk- Sleeping sound, stinking sweet, / My little skunkadee. / Such a shame to wake you, / My little stinkaree -sloths, spiders, even an ammonite ( I'm an ammonite / Curled up tight / All day / And all night. ) face the new day. Kolanovic adds plenty of smiling, dot-eyed figures in pastel-toned natural settings. A sweet reminder that poetry is as satisfying to hear in the morning as it is at bedtime.
