Purpose of this Blog...
You may have noticed that not all books are equal in capturing children's imaginations and in cultivating those innocent, tender souls. My goal is to help you find the ones that do!

Cock-a-Doodle...Oops!
by Lori Degman, illustrated by Deborah Zemke.
What happens on a farm when the barnyard rooster decides to take a week long vacation at the beach? Chaos!
If you've got a 3-9 year old child, I know you'll want to run out and find this book.
It's got just what this age group likes: cute illustrations, clever humor, rhyme, cadence, and a twist at the end!
Each animal left on the farm tries lending his voice for the "wake up call" without success. Farmer McPeeper (a very deep sleeper) just keeps on snoring.
Things go from bad to worse when the Rooster returns with a sniffle and sneeze (from the damp ocean breeze!) What are they to do now??
You'll have to get Cock-a-Doodle Oops! to find out - the ending is hilarious. A fun summer read, with a guaranteed laugh for preschoolers or independent readers!
Available on Amazon.
