Five Minutes, Alfie! by Lily Mae Walters





Five Minutes, Alfie


Alfie snuggles down in bed,
dreams still in his little head.
He dreams he's a king going out for a ride.
"A dragon sleeps in front of the gate," they cried.
How will they succeed in waking him up?
By helping each other and lots of luck.

Although Alfie starts the book abed and a sleeping dragon blocks the door, this is NOT a book for quiet time reading. This is a waking up book, where children want to hear the voices. They will stretch and wiggle, bounce and cheer as members of the kingdom come together to wake the dragon.
It is a book about compassion and working together.
I enjoyed the rhyming prose and the bright colors and exaggerated expressions.
This is a book that Grandparents will love and every day care should own.


Lily Mae Walters chose her pen name in honour of her beloved grandparents who also stare in the Josie James series.

She is married with two teenage children, and two huskies that are the inspiration behind Murphy and Asher in the books.

Lily Mae lives in Nuneaton, England and finds herself using local  places and even her old school in her stories.

Family and friends mean the world to Lily Mae and many will find themselves popping up throughout the series.

Lily Mae also writes for adults under the name of Florence Keeling.

Luckily, Canada accepted us as refugees and we were excited for a new beginning. However, any hopes of a brighter future vanished before an abusive alcoholic father who’s repeated physical violence against my mom left me screaming for any stability. Sexual, physical and emotional abuse clouded my childhood years leaving me so damaged that it changed who I was meant to grow up to be. In my early twenties, I bought a house and converted it into a full blown marijuana grow op. Soon after, I entered into the world of elite call girls and became one of the most sought after girls in my agency. By my late twenties, I was on top of the world and the proud
