Shout out GOOD MORNING! Shout out HOORAY! Shout it together… HOORAY FOR TODAY!

Every new day is brimming with possibility. As it unfolds, enjoy games, friends, dreams, laughter, dancing and songs all the way to the quiet of bedtime. With timely messages of optimism, cherishing the moment, and finding love and joy in the world around us, this gorgeously colourful and wholesome picture book is an upbeat celebration of life from a pair of picture book icons.

Reading this book is like eating a fizzy sour jelly: it tickles the senses and sparks energy. Its central question – what should you do today? – is represented in teeming illustrations, rhyming instructions and further questions encouraging children to be intrepid with their day.

There is an urgent message of Carpe Diem that runs through this beautiful picture book which is about being positive, affirmative, upbeat and actively involved with all opportunities. […] I look forward to trying out this energetic picture book with a group of young children and taking time to enjoy the simple repetitive text as well as looking more closely at the detail in the plentiful illustrations.
