Description
“Hop up! Wriggle over! Wakey-wakey: hungry!” Thus starts a full and busy day for an appealing animal family. Simple onomatopoeic words and irresistible illustrations capture familiar routines in a young read-aloud containing a warm and subtle reminder that families come in all shapes and sizes.
Praise for Hop Up! Wriggle Over!
"Honey's loose, confidently rendered watercolors in harmonious muted tones bring the liveliness and mayhem of this large diverse family to life, while her spare, often onomatopoeic text gives it added sparkle. In fact, the pairing of words and images is so effective that readers (in particular, those reading aloud) may give a sigh of relief as the koala and kangaroo finally put their little ones to bed and quiet reigns... A happy, lively story that celebrates the idea of family diversity even as it introduces readers to some of Australia's fauna." —Kirkus ". . . this is a delightful choice for a one-on-one introduction to the variety of Australia’s wildlife . . ." —SLJ —
