Peep wants to join the Dawn Chorus, but he needs to audition. He tries and tries to get to the early morning audition on time, but he just can’t wake up early enough. Will Peep ever be able to share his song with the others?
This gorgeous picture book by debut author/illustrator Suzanne Barton shares a sweet story about a cute little nightingale who discovers that his song is meant to be shared at the end of the day. The illustrations are a combination of collage, drawing and painting and the colours and patterns are just beautiful. I love the textured cover, the colour palette used, and the way the song is portrayed with swirls of colour throughout the story.
A perfect bedtime story for little ones, The Dawn Chorus will charm parents and children with the gentle story and delightful illustrations.
