Grumbly Bunnies — Willy Welch

Grumbly, droopy, dreamy bunnies. They don't want to get out of bed. They don't want to brush their teeth and go to school. They want to sleep. . . warm and deep beneath the covers on their beds. They don't want to tie their shoes or eat oatmeal. They don't want to play on the jungle gym. . .well, maybe for a while. Perhaps toss a ball, or play in mud. Learning how to dance and sing, or adding up numbers, or drawing pictures isn't such a bad thing. When evening comes, and grumbly bunnies have full tummies and comfy jammies, they march to bed. Warm and deep beneath the covers, they dream of the day ahead.

Whimsical, playful illustrations in bright, wake-up colors enhance this charming verse, following grumbly bunnies throughout an energizing day. So they aren't morning bunnies, but who could resist a beautiful, sunny day with lots to do and games to play?
