All of the animals of the world are prepared to send you off to sleep with their peaceful night time sleeping. Or ARE THEY??? 

Kastner does a great job in lulling you into thoughts of a sleepy time book - until she doesn't. Actually, she seems just as startled as we are to see other creatures who don't sleep the night away at all. The twists are a lot of fun. Her illustrations hit just the right note.
