Books with title Roll Over D.W.

Rupert's puppy Roly is so round and warm and soft and lovely that Rupert hasn't the heart to be stern with him when he bounces about and behaves badly. But one day Rupert and Roly have to spend the day with Great Aunt Ada. Here, they meet a parrot called Gordon and they both learn a trick or two! And surprise, surprise, Rupert enjoys his day and wants to pay another visit - because there are lots more interesting things to learn from his Great Aunt.

Roll Over, Roll Over is a children's book that contains the song Allyson would sing to her sons, Keenan & AJ before they went to bed each night. It is a mathematical song in which 10 children are asleep in the same bed. The smallest child in the bed ask the others to "roll over, roll over" in hopes of having more space. After each child rolls over, the number decreases while the smallest continues to ask until he is finally in the bed by himself and is able to finally sleep.

A picture book favourite in Spanish and English! '10 in the bed/and the little one said:/"Roll Over./Roll Over."/They all rolled over/and one fell out.'...One verse per page is issustrated with whimsical animals and a little boy. The animals are lively and curl up around the room after falling out of bed...Dreamy pastel illustrations are in blue and gold with clever but not busy detail. A pleasant way to count backwards, good for young groups and for singing at bedtime.
