While You Were Sleeping

Praise

“Luxuriantly illustrated. . . . Butler’s soothing, restrained text reads like a lullaby, but his full-bleed, double-spread animals portraits are the stuff of wide-eyed wonder, especially when he renders his subjects in close-up.”—Publishers Weekly

“This delightful board book takes prereaders and beginning readers on a midnight adventure from their own backyards to an exotic jungle and places in between as animals leap, jump, and cavort across the sturdy pages. . . . The realistic, softly colored illustrations give an accurate portrayal of animals in their natural habitats as they show kids some of the amazing things that go on in the animal world when they are sleeping.”—Booklist
