A sunny, full-color picturebook
Wake Up, Me! is a sunny, full-color picturebook written by Marine McGee specifically for young boys and girls just starting to read their very first words. The warm, homey artwork by Sam Williams fills pages with the wide-eyed wonderment of a toddler just waking up to a new day. A great book for reading to very young children, Wake Up, Me! is particularly recommended for preschool, day care, kindergarten, and community library collections for beginning readers.

A surefire hit to chase away morning grumblies.
This picture book is a gleeful way to greet the day, and just the thing for bringing on the sunshine.Sam Williams' cheerful illustrations perfectly compliment Marni McGee's warm, playful rhymes.My son likes to hear it first thing in the morning, with a cup of orange juice, a tickle and a hug.If you already have SLEEPY ME (also by McGee & Williams), you will certainly need this lively companion book.If you don't have SLEEPY ME, well, for goodness sake, get it!Both of these books are sure to claim special places in your child's day--and in your heart.

Kid approved
My two year old son loves this book so much that after I read it to him at bedtime he wants to sleep with it.It is easy to add "props" to the story like pointing to his bear when it comes up in the book, kissing him when prompted, blowing a breeze on him, etc.It is a short book but I believe it is perfect for his age.I would recommend buying it.

Nightly Pleasure to Read
Every night, my wife and I read different books to our 19-month-old son, but we always make sure we read this book last, right before he goes to bed. It doesn't matter how sleepy he is, he always enjoys reading the book. There is always something new to notice in Sam William's rich illustrations, and the text is nicely varied and balanced, describing a "sleepy" outdoors and indoors,father and mother, "sleepy" living things and inanimate objects, etc. The rhymes are well-done, yet not overly complicated, and they are fun to say. We can recite the book anytime anywhere. It is also the perfect physical size and amount of pages to create a fully satisfying experience, whether it becomes a nightly ritual or not. Highly recommended.

A Bedtime Classic
The gentle, rhyming text and the beautiful illustrations in "Sleepy Me" are guaranteed to lull even the crankiest little one toward the Land of Nod.The words comfort and calm, while the images are soft and rich enough to hold interest without overstimulating those that resist bedtime for all they're worth.A special note for Mom and Dad: You'll find yourself ready for bed after reading this one! ...
