Some of Us Sleep All Day ... watch out for us at night!

As the sun sets, Peeper heads out to visit wit his other nocturnal friends in the rainforest. Tonight he wants to find something different to do. After two readings, this book was part of our preschooler's daily 'must-haves' at nap time, and often in the evening. Months later, we still get requests to read it. The story moves fast and is packed with lots of tidbits about the animals' behaviors. It's initial attractiveness was likely due in part to Zaboomafu, which is wildly popular in our house, but we are still sharing this one, nearly a year later!
