This beautiful board book introduces young children to a whole host of animals, including a squirrel and a fox, a hedgehog and a mouse, a rabbit and a bear, and shows how they sleep.
Loes Botman's warm and detailed illustrations bring the different animals to life, and the simple words and concepts make this the perfect bedtime book to explore with young children.
(Ages 1 to 4 years)
“Botman's latest nature-themed work does double duty, offering a few facts to the youngest of readers while gently lulling them to sleep. Children learn about the nocturnal habits of various creatures—cows and sheep bed down in the hay, while rabbits and bears sleep in dens (the contrast between the hulking bear and the tiny bunny is delightful). Set against vivid, detailed backgrounds, these sumptuous illustrations will have eyelids drooping in no time.”—School Library Journal
Loes Botman
Loes Botman is an illustrator in the Netherlands. After completing her training at the “Royal Academy of Art” in The Hague, she began specializing in pastel drawings. The simplicity of the material and the diversity of drawing techniques had always drawn her to the medium. With pastel, she is able to work directly on the surface of the paper, using only her hands. Loes Botman has exhibited her work widely and leads workshops. She is the illustrator of several board books for young children, including Hello Baby Animals, Who Are You?
