Wake Up, Moon!
Checking Availibility...Description
An energetic squirrel isn't ready to give up on winter fun and go to bed in this cozy picture book about animal friends who spend an unforgettable night romping in the snow!
The snowstorm is over. The stars are out. But one little squirrel is not in bed. He's having far too much fun building snow animals and gliding and skating on glittering ice with his friends Squirrel, Owl, Fox, and Bear...until drowsy eyes and sleepy yawns begin to slow the animals' steps. Could it finally be time for Squirrel to turn in for the night?

Reviews
? "The tender, lyrical text deftly employs rhythm and rhyme. . . . Well-executed natural details combine seamlessly with human attributes in rich, harmonious natural settings. . . . each page in this gently humorous tale would make a superb winter holiday card. That rare gem--a gorgeously crafted tale for the youngest readers that radiates beauty, warmth, and wit."
"Anchored by the opening refrain 'The storm is over. The stars are out,' declartive lines build to trace a wide-awake squirrel's antics in Judge's playful after-hours jaunt. Awash in cool blues, the accompanying watercolor and colored pencil spreads give definition to the tawny crew as they rejoice in each other's company--until one active protagonist finally feels ready to rest."
