Margaret Mayo is an acclaimed storyteller and author of several bestselling children's titles. A former teacher, she uses her wide-ranging experience with children in her writing. She lives in Brighton. Alex Ayliffe is a well-known children's book illustrator, whose distinctive papercut illustrations have great child appeal. Her board book Boo Barney won the Sainsbury's Baby Book Award.
Another exclamatory collaboration from the author and illustrator of Choo Choo Clickety-Clack! (2005), this picture book celebrates wild animals amid some wildly hued settings (hot-pink skies and royal purple mountains are just the beginning) that manage to complement the text rather than distract from it. Ayliffe’s cut-paper collages pop off the page in a friendly way. Animal families abound, tigers smile, and lions don’t really seem fierce. Likewise, Mayo’s words describe animal activities that children can relate to: climbing, crouching, hiding, munching. Each spread features a wonderfully concise four-line poem ending with a kid-appealing exhortation: “Tall giraffes love stretch, stretch, stretching / long necks going up. . . up . . . reaching, / black tongues flicking, lips leaf picking / So stretch, tall giraffes, stretch!” Concluding with a final spread picturing many sleeping animals and a few still wide awake, this book cheers on movement and activity—even at night! Grades K-2. --Abby Nolan
