Description/Notes
Illus. in full color. 'A rhyming story that is full of laughs. 'The alarm can ring. The birds can peep....Today's the day I'm going to sleep,' says a lazy boy one morning, and despite a pail of icy water, television coverage, and the arrival of the Marines, he vows to stay in bed--and he does! The repetition of concepts and words will keep children turning the pages, as will the energetic drawings. A sure draw for early readers.'--Booklist. A rhyming story about a little boy who refuses to get up in the morning. A boy is so sleepy that he vows nothing will get him out of his morning bed, neither peas and beans nor the United States Marines. Copyright ? Libri GmbH. All rights reserved. In a rhyming story, neighbors, police, newspapers, and television attempt to get a little boy out of bed, but he refuses to get up. Illustrations are done with full color wash and ink sketches in an amusing comic style.
