About this product

Product Information

Wake up, little one , a soft voice beckons, the world around you is already stirring . As Wake Up, Island gently rouses the sleepy child, it summons a world of nature coming to life on a summer island in the magical North Woods. Sunlit fingers touch the shores, pine trees stretch their limbs, and lichen warms on ancient rock. Doe and fawn rise from their grass bed and pearls of dew bead a spider's finely woven web. Mallards skim the water's surface. Ravens perch and gargle greetings, chickadees call dee, dee, dee , and a heron swoops--minnows flee The moose and her calf wade, munching on plants. The red squirrel chatters. The black bear lazily scratches her back against a tree. Conjuring the morning life around a cabin fragrant with berry pancakes, this timeless book wakens the child in every reader to the wonders of nature that greet every new day in the charmed world of a northern woodland island.

"With Mary Casanova's simple text, and Nick Wroblewski's exquisite, muted woodcuts, we have a kind of meditation on the pleasures found in the North Woods." -- Star Tribune "With simple statements and delicate woodcuts, Wake up, Island creates a vivid sense of an island coming to life on a beautiful morning. Each page is a unique work of art. Even the text stretches and dips along with the fauna and flora of the island."-- Foreword Reviews "A lovely, versatile title to be used in storytime and to supplement many classroom lessons."-- School Library Journal "A fun yet thoughtful sensory read."-- Children's Book and Media Review "What a beautiful, engaging combination--Mary Casanova's lyrical but stirring 'wake-up' language and Nick Wroblewski's handmade woodcut block prints as illustrations."-- ReaderKidZ " Wake Up, Island , with its serene narrative and gorgeous woodcut illustrations, is stunning, playful, and a truly fulfilling read."-- The Picture Book Review "This picture book intriguingly pairs the delicacy of Nick's soft-colored woodcuts with the lilting language of Mary's poem about day's dawning." -- Lake Superior Magazine "In this beautiful book, gorgeous woodcut illustrations are paired with a simple, yet lyrical and rich text to give readers a picture of what it is like to be on an island in a northwoods lake on a summer morning." -- Through the Looking Glass Children's Book Review "A colorful feast for the eyes that will make the magic of nature come alive for any child." -- Marquette Monthly, "With simple statements and delicate woodcuts, Wake up, Island creates a vivid sense of an island coming to life on a beautiful morning.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
