Description

A grumple, a grumple is hard to awaken.
It doesn't like noises. It hates being shaken.

Not every child greets the new day with enthusiasm. Those who don't are called Grumples, and they must be dealt with carefully. Sing very softly, tickle one pinky toe, kiss the scrunched-up forehead. And then a big hug and a singing rhyme to see in the day. Even Grumples cannot resist. There are many going-to-bed books, but Good Morning, Grumple is a unique look at the celebration of morning.

Manon Gauthier's endearing collage illustrations capture the love between a mother and child, even in cranky moments. Parents will find Victoria Allenby's droll story in verse to be a perfect accompaniment to the beginning of the day, and a gentle way to turn their own Grumples into children again.

"This padded storybook with sturdy cardstock pages follows a mother's persistent efforts to get her sleepy 'grumple' out of bed in the morning. Allenby's intermittently rhyming text traces the mother's escalating actions, which involve singing ever-louder...Gauthier's naif collages sweetly emphasize the warmth between parent and child...even when the little one's eyes are squeezed tight in a desperate attempt to hang onto sleep a little longer."--Publishers Weekly
