Zoo dreams


Written and illustrated by Cor Hazelaar
1997 Farrar, Strauss & Giroux  

What do the animals do at the zoo when everybody goes home? In Zoo dreams, children can get a glimpse into the world of the zookeeper as he puts all the animals to bed. Subtle pastels mute the scene as the polar bear cuddles up and the turtle tucks into his shell. Secrets are also told such as fish sleep with their eyes open and bats sleep with the light on. A terrific bedtime story book that will captivate children while setting the mood for sleep.
