Hooray for Today!
Description
When the moon is up, Owl is wide awake and ready for fun: “Hooray for today! Would you like to play?” But everyone says, “Not now! I’m sleepy!” Owl’s playday gets lonely fast as each friend turns her away—until sunrise, when Owl discovers a friendly surprise. Perfect for little ones learning the art of patience, Hooray for Today! celebrates playtime, sharing, and friendship.
What happens when you’re wide awake and everyone else is fast asleep?

- Perfect for Reading Aloud: With fun, repetitive phrases kids will love to shout—"Hooray for today!" and "Not now! I’m sleepy!"
* "Buoyant and funny, this second outing cleverly works within the structure of Won's debut, but he allows himself more freedom to riff and, in doing so, hits all the right notes." —Kirkus, STARRED review "A winning read-aloud sure to resonate best with preschoolers reluctant to bed down for the night and for ardent fans of Won’s Hooray for Hats." —School Library Journal
