Synopsis
It's Baby Rooster's job to wake everybody up in the morning, but there's just one problem—he doesn't know how! The pigs and cows and ducks all try to help, but nothing seems to work. Luckily, the wise old owl comes to the rescue.
This is a funny, noisy, quack-along story from Ivor Baddiel and Sophie Jubb, beautifully illustrated by Ailie Busby. Full of friendly farmyard animals, young children will love joining in with the Baby Rooster and laughing when he doesn't get it quite right.

About the Author
Ivor Baddiel and Sophie Jubb are prolific children's book writers, perhaps explained by the fact that they have a little girl and boy themselves. Sophie teaches young children and uses her stories in lessons. Ivor used to be a teacher, but is now a scriptwriter for television and radio. They live in London.
Ailie Busby has illustrated several picture books for children, including Drat That Fat Cat by Pat Thompson and Slugs for Breakfast by Nicola Moon. She lives in Newcastle, England, with her husband and two young children.
From School Library Journal
PreSchool-K—Baby Rooster is having a difficult time finding the right phrase to use to wake up the farm. After he asks the pigs what they say, he tries "cock-a-doodle-oink-oink!" to no avail. He learns each animal's sound and incorporates it into his wake-up call, but nothing works. The wise old owl advises him to listen very carefully the next morning, and then he will know what to say. Baby Rooster follows the owl's suggestion and hears the appropriate call. His delivery is not so accurate at first, and he gives out with "cock-a-noodle-noo!" "cock-a-poodle-poo!" before he hits upon the iconic cry and the desired result. Children will giggle at and identify with Baby Rooster's silly bumblings. Busby's full-page cartoons in colorful acrylics lightheartedly reflect the buoyant text. While the ever-popular mixed-up rooster story has been done many times, this title could serve as a replacement for out-of-print variants.—Rachel G. Payne, Brooklyn Public Library, NY
