When dusk comes, gray squirrel needs to find somewhere safe to sleep. He finds a cozy den, but a big black bear is already sleeping there. On his way up a tree, he sees a family of bats, but sleeping upside makes his head ache. Everywhere he looks, he finds another animal has already had the same idea!
Rebekah Raye's wonderful watercolor paintings take us along on the gray squirrel's search for the very best bed as the moon rises higher in the night sky. This charming tale of persistence is now augmented with four new pages of back matter about the animals that squirrel encounters.
First time in paperback for this Tilbury House Classic.
A charming read-aloud for bedtime or anytime.
Includes additional information about each animal in the story.
For animal lovers of all ages.
