Early Experiences Does Baboon Sleep In Bed Pb

Who sleeps in a bed? Does a polar bear? Does a beaver? Does a bumblebee? Do you? Bedtime is one of the most important times of the day for young children, and this latest addition to the informative Early Experiences series explains to children why only some animals have beds, but everybody goes to sleep. The perfect bedtime book! Written by Dr. Fred Ehrlich, a pediatrician and child psychiatrist, the fact-filled, question-and-answer Early Experiences books engage young children through humorous comparisons right at their level of comprehension. Editorial Reviews From Booklist PreS. With silly questions and answers, this small, square easy reader in the Early Experiences series has fun with words as it introduces preschoolers to a few fascinating facts about sleepy animals and people. On each right-hand page, children will find a simple question ("Does a baboon sleep in a bed?"), accompanied by a clear, brightly colored illustration, sharply outlined in ink, showing a funny scenario (a baboon in a comfy bed). A turn of the page reveals the answer ("No way! A baboon sleeps in a tree"), with a picture of the critter in question in a more authentic pose (a baboon asleep in a tree, "usually a different one every night"). First the question, then the facts. The pattern follows through for a beaver, a polar bear, a bumblebee, a horse, and a dog, with the book culminating in several spreads showing people--from babies to grown-ups--in many different kinds of beds. Cozy fun for bedtime. Hazel Rochman Copyright å© American Library Association. All rights reserved --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
