Hello Animals, How Do You Sleep?

Loes Botman. Floris, $8.95 (12p) ISBN 978-1-78250-551-8

In this addition to Botman’s Hello Animals series of board books, a variety of wild and domesticated animals answer the question “How do you sleep?” Luminous snoozy images depict the animals peacefully curled up in their woodland, farm, and home environments. A squirrel and a fox sleep “tucked in my tail,” a dog and cat sleep “cozy on cushions,” and ducks and a chicken rest “snuggled in straw.” Each animal is surrounded with warm, halo-like colors and visual textures that echo their environments, from barnyard hay to warm, deep dens, bringing gentle artistry to the pages and an invitation for readers, too, to bed down. How do you sleep? Ages 1–3. [em](Apr.) [/em]
