Description: From the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, The Animals Sleep: A Bedtime Book of Biomes emphasizes the importance of sleep for both animals and children. With poetic text and colorful illustrations, this educational picture book explores the unique sleep environments of animals, taking children on a fascinating journey to see the diverse biomes of the world: from freshwaters and marine waters to the dry desert, and from dense woodlands and forests to the open grassland and tundra. The beautifully illustrated landscapes allow children to discover new animals that are sleeping in each habitat. Beavers, zebras, an antelope, a jaguar, a crocodile and humpback whales: An eye-catching assortment of animals fills every scene.--Publisher.
