All the Awake Animals are Almost Asleep

My little one, lay down your head. It's time to doze, it's time for bed. You tell me, "I'm not sleepy now." "Just try," I say. You ask me, "How?" As a mother tries to tuck her child in for the night, she tells him about all the awake animals that are getting sleepy. From antlered Antelope to zzz-ing Zebra, this alphabet of animals becomes an exquisite celebration of language and nature, just right for lulling even the most wide-awake little ones into a cozy, soothing slumber.
