Early One Morning
by Lawrence Schimel
Age Range: Under_5
Sometimes, the most exciting part of the day is when you just wake up and feel nothing but anticipation for a really great day ahead of you. The main character of Early One Morning, written by Lawrence Schimel, wakes up before his moms and sister, so he butters a slice of bread and drinks milk alongside his cat while waiting for the others to get out of bed.
Early One Morning is a part of the Rainbow Family Board Books Series, which is available in 18 different languages. In this English version, each spread has two sentences (one on each page), and the sentences rhyme with each other—creating a participatory space for children to try to guess each next rhyming word. Readers will have fun following along with Latvian illustrator Elīna Brasliņa’s illustrations, which feature a warm colour scheme. The most prevalent colour throughout this board book is orange: the main character and one of his moms have orange hair, and the cat is even orange too!
