A gentle, cozy story following a family’s bleary-eyed wake-up routine, a little one who’s eager to start the day, and the quiet magic of early morningsIn 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.I 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 . . .
