Book Description
for Up! by Kristine O'Connell George and Hiroe Nakata
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
“Up? Up! The sun’s up. I’m up. Is Daddy up?” You can be sure Daddy won’t be sleeping for long in this joyful picture book about an energetic toddler who is go-go-go from the moment she opens her eyes. As she and her daddy play at home and in the park, she achieves height or flight in numerous ways: riding (on daddy’s shoulders), bouncing, swinging, climbing . . . whew! Kristine O’Connell George’s high-spirited, rhyming text is accompanied by Hiroe Nakata’s breezy watercolor illustrations. (Ages 1–3)
