Description
It's opening time at the coffee house. While the sun rises, the lion and kangaroo baristas welcome a menagerie of colorful customers. Join them in saying good morning to the beans, machines, and--yes, please!--caffeine! Smile along as they greet the espressos, lattes, mochas, frappes, drips, sips, and much more. Yay coffee! Whether you prefer brewed or pressed, black or cream, mochas or macchiatos, single origin or groovy blends, if you've gotta have your daily grind, this playful picture book for grown-ups and coffee-culture families is for you. Good Morning Brew is brought to you by the same author and illustrator team behind the bestselling Goodnight Brew: A Parody for Beer People. Need a refresher on how coffee travels from field to cup? Perplexed by espresso options? Don't miss the bonus coffee infographics at the end of the book!
