Books in Animals Can Be So... series

Do you ever play tag or run for a ball? Animals love to run, too. They might chase after food or leap away from trouble. A bald eagle can sweep through the air, scanning the ground from far above. A sea lion can plunge towards the seafloor then ride the ocean waves to shore. From charging cheetahs to zooming dragonflies, Animals Can Be So Speedy is one fast read!

Do you ever take an afternoon nap? A polar bear does! It curls up on the cold snow, using its fur coat for a comforter and its big paw for a pillow. An iguana would rather snooze on the rocky shore, basking in the sunshine. From walruses to chimpanzees, all animals need a little shut-eye. In these pages, you'll discover who snoozes and who snores!

Cuddle up to a chimp, snuggle with a squirrel, lie down with a lion! Shhh--it's the animals' bedtime, and they're all yawning and nestling, relaxing and resting, dozing and snoozing. Take a peek at the coypu (KOI-poo) with his mouth wide open, as well as little gray squirrels all huddled together. Marine iguanas slumber on rocky shores, while the fuzzy white polar bear rests its paws. A chimp builds a nest up high in a tree, because it--and the walruses, foxes, and owls--are ready to sleep. It's the perfect bedtime book for sweet dreams.

Look at who’s pouncing and rolling and diving: animals can have such fun! Red fox springs up high-watch him go PLOP right on top of his brother. Deep in the jungle the orangutan swings and swoops, his long hand grabbing leafy branches. Cub on cub, frisky lions romp. Free of the sea, the dolphins jump, sailing into the sky. Grab a partner, twirl around, and the prairie dogs wrestle. Don’t you want to play, too?
