Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0525518150
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 33
Book Description
Who knew that one little noise could set off a whole cacophony? In this chain-reaction story, the animal world wakes up with a squeak! Early one morning, a gentle breeze tickles the ear of a small mouse, and he wakes up with a squeak! That squeak wakes up the some chipmunks, who rattle tree branches and knock pinecones into the river. Those pinecones wake the trout, who splash around and wake up an elk on the riverbank. And so goes the story of Squeak!, a chain-reaction story set in a beautiful, rolling landscape with animals who are all woken up one by one with the rising of the sun. With lush and vivid art, and plenty of fun animal noises on each page, this story is a perfect read-aloud to wake up to--or to read any time of day. Praise for Squeak!: * "The text is melodic and vivid [and] a joy to read aloud . . . A surefire hit for storytime, one-on-one reading, and gift giving." --Booklist, *STARRED REVIEW* *"This adorable circular story for young readers is a great way to start or end the day with a little humor." --SLJ, *STARRED REVIEW* "A delightful, onomatopoeic introduction to the interactive sounds of awakening animals." --Kirkus Reviews
