ABOUT THIS BOOK

Wake Up House!
Just before dawn
House stretches
starts to yawn–


In Dee Lillegard’s playful poems, all the contents of a house rise and shine and show off their unique personalities. Illustrated with vibrant sculptural pictures of refrigerators, stairs, and rocking chairs waking, reminding us that poetry lives all around us.
