Can you creep like a mouse, in the pale moonlight?
Can you stretch like a tiger, waking from a dream?
Can you splash like an otter, in the pool so deep?
FROM LEAPING LIKE A FROG to winking like an owl, acclaimed author-illustrator John Butler will delight the very young with this simple, interactive look at different animals and the way they move.
Butler's lavish portraits feature wide-eyed animals in their natural surroundings. The simple text will invite spirited responses from young children as they imitate the animals in the story, until finally, at the end, they are instructed to "Close your eyes tight and rest your sleepy head."
From the creator of the widely praised While You Were Sleeping and Hush, Little Ones, here is another perfect read-aloud book that young children will want to hear again and again.

Reviews
"Soft, dreamy illustrations in orangy browns set against pastel backgrounds depict a variety of cuddly creatures in action. The art, with its delicate colors and detailed rendering of the layered textures of fur, gives the animals a soft, huggable look, making this a perfect title for curling up together during one-on-one reading."School Library Journal
