Synopsis

Let's close our eyes and nap by the sea with this book specifically written to help your keiki fall asleep, using repetition and lyrical rhyming. With adorable illustrations, Naptime by the Sea visits some of Hawai'i's sea life as they settle down for an afternoon nap. Children will learn a bit about how home animals sleep, like turtles, dolphins, seals, and parrotfish.

National Sleep Foundation studies show toddlers who nap have longer attention spans and sleep better at night. Gather your children and read them to sleep with Naptime by the Sea!
