(2) K-3 Illustrated by Pascal Campion. Even before the sun rises, the city is waking up. The bakery, joggers, garbage trucks, and more begin their days until listeners find themselves in a girl's bedroom. Spare text and city-sounds onomatopoeia work with lush illustrations to satisfyingly depict the activities; the frenzy feels not rushed but alive and expectant. This ode to city mornings makes for an invigorating start to the day.
