magic of early morningsI wake up very early.Good morning, Sun, on
your way at last. You don't wake up nearly as early as I do. Now
the wind is waking.Tickle tickle on my cheeks,rustle rustle through
the leaves. Birds untuck and start to coo,Whooo whooo, you wake up
too early, yes you doooo . . . In sweet, melodic verse written from
the perspective of the earliest riser, Too Early follows a family's
morning routine, exploring both the groggy haze and the everyday
magic inherent in the predawn hours of a loving household.
Mip and Pip are two fairies who live in a beautiful forest near a
waterfall. One day, Mip has a brilliant idea to build a tree house
and decides to make it into a contest: whoever can build the
tallest tree house the fastest wins! Pip, who is much more
thoughtful and a planner, reads about architecture and sketches out
blueprints while Mip, the speedster, is already halfway done
constructing her house. But when a powerful gust of wind threatens
Mip's tree house and Pip's safety, the two friends must learn to
appreciate each other's talents to save the day-and to build the
tallest tree house in the forest.

beach with her grandfather and furry best friend.

With plenty of love and patience, they can blossom into an
extraordinary gift.

magic of the theater. The bright costumes, the intricate dances,
the magical music, and a new friend all combine to captivate the
