Description
Book SynopsisAfter a big sleep, it's time for Zeki to wake up! His eyes, ears, mouth & nose, head, shoulders, knees & toes shimmy, shake and bounce into action. By the last spread, he's ready for anything! An energetic companion to Zeki Sleep Tight, this is a perfect way to start the day.
Trade ReviewZeki has woken up fresh and bright-eyed, welcoming readers into his home. The familiarity of this adorable read-aloud is sure to get young ones chatting and engaging with these joyful illustrations. A great little book exploring routine and family. Filza, Mama Filz, mamma_filz, Instagram - Lush additions to the Zeki series! Flow along with Zeki's nighttime routine and then watch him burst into the next morning. McQuinn's text is a pleasure to read aloud-phrases pop, snap and surprise. Zeki doesn't dress; he 'shimmies' into his clothes; he doesn't wake up; he 'shakes' awake; his bubble bath is soaking in 'smells of dark forests'; a bedtime book is a 'dozy story'. Hearson's snuggle-soft illustrations journey through the books- the 'lemon-yellow sun' carries through to the bright yellows of Zeki's jelly shoes, his bib, his puppet duck. The animal toys and motifs in Zeki Sleeps Tight reappear in a different form. A smiley snail is first a pull-along toy and then dangles from Zeki's crib mobile. A fluffy sheep flops on the floor and ends up in a special Zeki spoon on the final page. Surely the best book friends to start and end a toddler's day! Fen Coles, Letterbox library.
