In this rhythmic springtime tale, animals of all kinds get ready to sleep. As the sun sets, fish find a place to hide, cats curl up, and sheep huddle in their wool coats. Still, not everyone is asleep . . . the minnow, the kitten, the lamb―and a little boy―are all awake (but not for long!).

This rhyming, cumulative text about young animals getting ready to sleep is patterned after the Little Red Hen: “Down, down goes the sun, / And down in the sea, / Fish find a safe place to hide. / Who’s asleep? / ‘Not I,’ says the minnow.” The turtles, ducklings, bees, cats, birds, and caterpillars respond likewise. Sharp eyes will notice visual clues of a toddler’s chin and hand in the water in the first spread and his feet in the water and red sneakers on the ground in the next. When all the sheep go to sleep, the child’s mother asks, “Is anyone awake?” and a perky face wearing a lamb costume peeks around a tree—guess who? The pop-eyed cartoon faces are appealing, while the clever compositions add a “look-and-find” element. A playful and inviting bedtime tale. Preschool-Grade 2. --Julie Cummins
