Bookroo's summary

Amy's late-night TV habit leaves her snoozing through school, even as her family hauls her bed to class. But when she finally wakes up early, her classmates are mysteriously absent. What happened?

From the publisher

Sometimes it’s hard to wake up!Amy stays up late watching TV, and in the morning she doesn’t get up for school. Her whole family tries, to no avail, to get her on her feet. Finally, they give up and take her to school in her bed. There she snores away, through math, through recess, through gym, through English, until her family has to come take her home again. The next morning she wakes up bright and early . . . but what has happened to the rest of the kids in the class? First published in 1998, this classic Munsch tale has been reimagined with fresh and energetic new illustrations by Dave Whamond.
