[Gizelle]

This book opens up with a little girl by the window watching everything outside. She watches as everyone does their own usual routine in the morning. She notices that everyone has somewhere to go and something to do. She just stands there until she notices that her grandpa is on his way to pick her up. From there, they both go to the park to visit the animals.
This book seems to be a very easy book for children that range from the ages of 2 - 6. The illustrations are simple by looking like pages out of a coloring book. The soft colors make it easy and simple for simple minded kids. The text throughout the book is a font size bigger than normal making it easy for grandparents to read to their grandkids. Another special feature in this book, is the use of onomatopoeia. The words like "Vroom!, Clack! and Honk!" gives the book sound and life.

This is a sweet and simple book for young children, about a girl who watches her family leave for work and school and watches the hustle and bustle going on outside, wondering if someone is going to ask her if she is coming too. This is a great book for early readers.
