Please Don't Wake the Animals: A Book About Sleep

32 pp. | Peachtree | March, 2008 | Trade ISBN 978-1-56145-393-1 $16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Higgins Bond. Batten distinguishes between mammals (including humans) and other animals such as snakes, fish, and insects. All have "a way of sleeping," even if it's during flight. While the presentation isn't nuanced and the page design is uninspired, the information is straightforward and accurate. Realistic acrylic illustrations complement the text. Reading list, websites.
