Shyba's toddler son Beau and their rescue puppy Theo (Naptime with Theo & Beau) return for another photo book. After playing on the beach, "Beau is dirty. / Theo is dirty. / It must be bathtime!" Like its predecessor, there's not much of a story here, but the sweet, sudsy photographs successfully capture the boy-and-dog bond. Theo's adoption story is included.

Fast asleep with limp limbs intertwined, clear, close-up photos of Beau the toddler and Theo the rescue puppy chronicle their loving and peaceful shared naptimes. The text is more observation ("Sleeping on our backs. And on our bellies") than story, but this glimpse at the bond between human and pet will charm even the grumpiest among us. Beau's adoption story is appended.
