Snug Bugs and Sleeping Lions: Bedtime in the Animal Kingdom

Formats & Editions

Soothing, calming and dreamlike, this is the ideal bedtime story for young animal lovers who are reluctant to go to sleep.

No matter when or where you sleep,

it's never only you.

Bugs and lions, birds and bears are

feeling sleepy too.

Could you doze inside a flower or halfway up a tree? On this gentle bedtime journey, snuggle down on a branch with a fluffy panda, burrow in a sleepy heap with a mob of meerkats and nap standing on one leg with a flock of flamingos.

From the tiniest caterpillar to the biggest whale, we all need a snooze sometimes. Discover the amazing ways animals sleep in the wild - as you start to drift off too ...
