A funny picture book about the morning ritual of a little girl that can do everything by herself. Almost everything... For children ages 4 and up.

Debut children's book by author Kim Crockett-Corson who lives in Atlanta, GA and illustrated by Jelena Brezovec

Kim Crockett-Corson gathers much inspiration, laughter and joy from her preschool students and her delightfully lively daughter who sees the world with fresh, innocent eyes. She explains: ＂Does this sound familiar to anyone? An energetic and independent little girl is determined to get ready for school all by herself -- while her parents fumble to get her through the morning ritual with minimal chaos? It sure is familiar to me: the inspiration came from my experiences with my daughter, who almost always wants to do everything by herself -- even if the result is incorrect, incomplete or worse yet...a downright fiasco. I wrote MY GOOD MORNING as a humorous story for all parents who have lived through these frenzied morning struggles.＂ A native of Raleigh, North Carolina and an alumnus of N.C. State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Parks, Recreation & Tourism Management, Kim lives in Atlanta, GA.
