Wake Up, It’s Spring!, by Lisa Campbell Ernst, is a beautiful
book that has a succession of characters who tell each other that it’s
Spring. It’s fun to follow the
progression of each character as they tell the next one about Spring. The author uses very vivid verbs making
this story a great mentor text for writing. Retelling this story is fun because each scene builds to the
next. Making a chart/timeline
would help children develop the story for retelling. Most of all, it’s just a fun way to introduce Spring!
