Industry Reviews
In an urban counterpart to the cockcrow-in-the-barnyard theme, Moore (Deep River) and Low (Wake Up, Wilson Street) lyrically describe the early morning hours in a big city. Contrapuntal text evokes the calm and friendliness of the city streets as well as the changing light and escalating sound and bustle: at the beginning, ``the sky is silver gray/ like the inside of a pot''; later, ``down below, under the street, subway attendants cannot know/ that the sky is turning as blue as a teacup.'' Low's velvety paintings assume dramatic perspectives, bathing ordinary city life in wondrous light, from the electric haze of the subway tunnels to the brilliant sunshine whitening the steeple of a cathedral. Curious suburban and rural readers as well as confirmed city-dwellers will warm to this metropolitan reveille. Ages 5-8. (Sept.)
Bernstein

K-Gr 3 Moore celebrates urban life by describing various early morning activities. Weary hospital staff wait for the night shift to end while a cheerful baker produces breakfast donuts for eager customers. From subway workers underground to construction workers on girders high above the streets, the city pulses with action. What infuses the book with life, however, is not the text, but Low's wonderful paintings. They capture the energy and diversity of the population and carry viewers from one locale to another. Moore's prose is wordy and lacks the rhythm that might have captured readers' interest. Nevertheless, the illustrations can be used as the basis of conversations about children's own morning experiences. Kathy Piehl, Mankato State University, MN
