Gwendolyn Grace, a preschool alligator in a pink tutu, wants to play. But her mother insists that she pipe down, because the baby is trying to sleep. Gwendolyn Grace can’t quite believe it, and in this funny call-and-response, all dialogue and action picture book, she questions her mother relentlessly about what is allowed (not much) and not allowed (a lot). It all ends happily, though, when Mom, baby, and Gwendolyn Grace play a noisy game together. Lots of drama, lots of noise, and lots of funny moments make this picture book debut an ideal choice for story times and for families with new siblings.
Gwendolyn Grace has a new baby sister but the problem is all she wants to do is play and her mom says that will wake the baby. This book shows you all the things she wants to be doing instead of being quiet. The illustrations are absolutely adorable and the storyline is one that many little kids can easily relate to. My 3 year old is constantly asking me to read the “girl gator with the tutu book” over and over again. The perfect book for the preschool (3-6 age) crowd!
