When Papa Snores

(2) K-3 Illustrated by Holly Meade. A girl relates the cacophonous sounds of her grandparents' snoring and its effect on their quaking household. The book retains its sense of humor to the end, as the girl's own snoring brings her amazed grandparents to her bedroom. Meade's lively line keeps the simple story moving and gives charm not only to the little girl but also to the overactive household objects, which add their own sound effects to the rousing chorus.
