Synopsis
Take a trip through the animal world in this exquisitely-illustrated counting book.
While young Daisy sleeps, animals play and swim and fly. When she wakes up, her mother tells her about each animal in turn.
John Butler's lyrical text and vivid pictures make this a special book for sharing. Children can learn to count while they discover what animals do while we're asleep, and adults will be equally enchanted by the luminous beauty of Butler's brilliant, detailed illustrations.

One more bedtime counting book will soothe readers and inspire dreams. While You Were Sleeping by John Butler tells young children that "One tiger went hunting in the jungle" and "Four baby owls sat wide-eyed in an old oak tree." All 10 animals appear realistically painted in their natural settings.

3 mos-4 yrs. What young child doesn't wonder what takes place after he or she is tucked in for the night? This delightful board book takes prereaders and beginning readers on a midnight adventure from their own backyards to an exotic jungle and places in between as animals leap, jump, and cavort across the sturdy pages. Children will be able to count from one to ten by following a single tiger on its hunt for food, while, far away, two mice nest in the warm hay. The realistic, softly colored illustrations give an accurate portrayal of animals in their natural habitats as they show kids some of the amazing things that go on in the animal world when they are sleeping.
