Do you want to sleep in a tree like a koala?

How about at the bottom of the ocean like a whale?

Or upside down in a cave like a bat?  


Discover how different creatures go to sleep at night and imagine yourself snuggling down with them at bed time.  

You can also try and spot the playful caterpillar hidden on every page.

    Ideal for little ones who get fussy at bedtime because they simply don't want to miss out on any of the interesting things going on in their little world. Showing a little one that animals they like go to bed too, an end to the nighttime struggle. Loved the otters going to sleep on their backs, holding hands, and singing a song.

    In this cute bedtime story, children can learn about how animals sleep. The illustrations are cute. The poetry is a little bit stilted, but not too bad. I received an advance copy of this book for free, and I'm leaving this review voluntarily.

    It's time for someone to go to bed, but animals all over the world sleep in so many different ways! Review all the options and see which one is just right.

    This cosy little book has a tidy rhyme and a comfy rhythm. I love all the illustrations and factual information about animals. At first, I struggled to understand that there was a dialogue going on (there are no quotation marks), and I'm sceptical of the use of comic sans font. These only inconvenienced me slightly, however.

    I recommend this book to any child who likes animals and who needs something soothing before bed.

    Thank you to Annabel Gardiner and BookSirens for this ARC. I'll keep it near my bed just in case I need something soothing.

    So How Will You Sleep is an cute, funny, charming, beautiful, sweet, imaginative, and lovely story!! This is the best bedtime story I've ever read! So how will you sleep asks a child how they plan to sleep at night and details how different animals sleep. It is a very playful and endearing story. It asks children if they will sleep like a bat, bee, polar bear, fox, whale, and many more animals. As you go through the animals you learn how each of them sleep at night and children get to imagine themselves right there beside those animals. This book prompts lots of fun discussion questions. Would hanging upside down like a bat be fun or dizzying?! There is also a cute little caterpillar on each page for kids to search for. If your kid loves to read a book before bedtime this story a must read!!
