Illus. in full color. "A rhyming story that is full of laughs. 'The alarm
can ring. The birds can peep....Today's the day I'm going to sleep, ' says a
lazy boy one morning, and despite a pail of icy water, television coverage, and
the arrival of the Marines, he vows to stay in bed--and he does! The repetition
of concepts and words will keep children turning the pages, as will the
energetic drawings. A sure draw for early readers."-- "Booklist.
