Description
*We hope for new stock in November*
Using a charming combination of poetry and prose, author Judy Young explains the bedtime habits of some common North American animals. Young readers will learn not only where certain animals make their beds but also how and why the sleep as they do.
Each animal is introduced with a rhythmic singsongy, tongue-twisting poem guaranteed to bring smiles and encourage reader participation.
Mole
Way down deep, deep in the ground
In tunnels winding all around
Softly sleeps a little mole
Curled up snuggly in his hole.
A dirty yucky
Muckaalucky
Dark and dreary
Not too cheery
Tight and crampy
Needs a lampy
Place where you won’t lay your head
But to a mole it is a bed.
The accompanying expository text includes information about the animal’s unique sleeping habits. Did you know that when dolphins sleep, half of their brains stay awake? Finally, at book’s end, the reader is gently guided back to a soft cozy bed of her own. Sleep tight!
