| Publisher Description: This adorable read-aloud features appealing baby animals and a rhyming text that is sure to please. From trumpeting like an elephant to howling like a wolf, author-illustrator John Butler delights the very young with this simple, interactive look at different animals and the noises they make. Butler's lavish double-page portraits feature wide-eyed animals in their natural surroundings. The simple text invites young children to mimic the animals' sounds. When all the animals are quiet, readers are encouraged to imitate their animal friends one last time: "It's time to gently close your eyes and fall fast asleep." |
