review 1: Perfect for bed time!Na, Il S. A Book of Sleep. New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2009. Print. 24 p.A Book of Sleep allows readers to discover the ways various animals sleep. With the owl as the guide through the night, readers visit elephants, fish, pigeons, penguins, giraffes, and others as they are asleep. Some sleep standing up, such as the horse, but all animals sleep at night, except for our guide the owl. Tired owl finally gets rest when the day begins. Using computer applications, the illustrations were created by layering mixed textures and media. Floral designs often appear in the textures within the original illustrations. This work is perfect to use as a bed time story for preschool age children. Children will draw a picture of the way they sleep. Thinking about the t... morehings used for people to sleep will help young artists create their drawings.
review 2: When I read this to my son/daughter, I like to make the sounds of the different animals. I also point out where the little owl is hidden on every page. S/he is still in utero, but I nevertheless feel like this is a worthwhile activity. LOOK IT IS BEING CUDDLED BY THE TWO PENGUINS!THERE IT IS FLYING OVER THE WHALE IN THE OCEAN!NOW IT IS ON A WIRE WITH THOSE OTHER BIRDS*!The art is simultaneously classic and modern and I'm pretty sure no child will appreciate it on as many levels as I do.(*which kinda look like penises, just saying.) less
