Praise for Get Out of Bed!:
“Munsch adds another winner to his growing list of popular picture books with this fresh, funny story that should be wonderful for both small-group read-alouds and lap sharing.” (Get Out of Bed!) — Booklist

“Get Out of Bed! takes the idea of sleeping in to a whole new level, and will satisfy [Munsch] fans’ expectations of the absurd.” (Get Out of Bed!) — Quill & Quire
“Few children will be able to resist the temptation to saw logs along with Amy as her brother, her parents, her dog, and even the school principal fruitlessly try to rouse her. Another crowd pleaser from this popular author.” (Get Out of Bed!) — School Library Journal

“Munsch’s parade of bright funny picture books has been a sales phenomenon in children’s book publishing... And as Munsch books are requested by kids over and over every day in countless homes and schools, at story time and bedtime, the distinctive storyteller’s voice will undoubtedly continue to be echoed for years to come by parents, teachers, babysitters and whomever else young kids can get to read to them.” — The Chronicle Herald

“More witty, creative and entertaining than most of what passes for adult literature.” — The Globe and Mail
