Two baby tigers and an elephant, giraffe, rhinoceros, panda, and gorilla each have a busy day exploring before snuggling in to sleep. Short sentences full of repetition and sound words support language development and make the stories a good choice for toddler read-alouds. Mixed-media art depicts sweet-looking animals and a hint of their natural habitats. Brief animal facts are appended.
