Description: Discover the sweet, snuggly, and surprising sleep habits of animals in this gentle introduction to nonfiction.
All over the world, animals are settling down for a snooze! An ant takes a one-minute nap, the first of nearly 250 it might take that day. A cat dreams of catnip and tuna! There is so much to learn about how animals go to sleep in this offering from Ben Lerwill and Maribel Lechuga. With gently informative text and adorable wildlife illustrations, this introduction to nonfiction allows readers age three and up to discover the sweet, snuggly, and sometimes surprising sleep habits of animals.Review Quotes: Some lines of text undulate in keeping with the pictures' gentle visual flow. Questions that Lerwill slips into each scene . . . are calculated to put readers into quietly reflective moods. If the sonorous narrative and all the sleeping animals on view somehow fail to have their intended effect, the author closes with tried-and-true tips for getting a better night's sleep. Equally suitable for nodding off and nature study.
