Description

Wake Up, Island gently awakens the child in every reader to the wonders of nature that greet each new day. A soft voice beckons, summoning a world of life coming to life on a summer island in the magical North Woods.

The morning light stirs the trees, pine needles rustle, and dew drops sparkle on spider webs. The sounds of the forest come alive: mallards skim the water's surface, ravens perch and call out, chickadees chirp, and a heron swoops by. In this serene world, a doe and fawn rise from their grass bed, while a moose and her calf wade through the undergrowth.

Conjuring the morning life around a cabin fragrant with berry pancakes, Wake Up, Island invites readers to experience the beauty of nature that awaits every day in the charmed world of a northern woodland island.
