Product description
Review
★"Sweetly imaginative, linguistically rich, and featuring enlivening vocabulary with lots of active verbs and new and interesting nouns and adjectives, this offers a fresh entry in the familiar canon of bedtime reads. Children will be delighted by the various animals' activities and the notion that feathered, furred, and scaly sleepers like themselves enjoy nothing better than dreaming of kids. A delightful answer to the oft-asked question, do animals dream?" -Kirkus Reviews, starred review "VanDerwater's lullaby of a picture book... (has) well-crafted, undulating rhymes... a lovely bedtime sendoff for animal-loving children that will leave them with ample imaginative fodder for their own dreams. - Publishers Weekly
"Footie pajamas, a stuffy, and a bed begin this bedtime tale... (that) invites readers to imagine what animals see in their dreams. This picture book, filled with vibrant colors, is a bedtime story that will delight young animal lovers. A soothing addition." - School Library Journal

Dreaming of a beautiful bedtime book? Here it is:>)
10 May 2018 -
Published on Amazon.com
I adore Amy Ludwig VanDerwater's new book, DREAMING OF YOU. This is rhyming bedtime story imagines what all the animals are dreaming about. Wonderful details and fun language make it fresh and beautiful. Here's one of my favorite stanzas:
Chipmunks are dreaming of digging deep burrows.
Chipmunks are dreaming of fat, seedy cheeks.
Chipmunks are dreaming of racing and chasing you,
cheerfully playing at hide-and-go-seek.
And what fun for kids to chant along with the phrase, "____s are dreaming," which is repeated three times in each spread.

Cozy bedtime story about animal dreams
7 October 2018 -
Published on Amazon.com
When animals sleep, what do they see? That's the premise of this sweet book. From kittens and turtles to robins and horses, readers are lulled with passages of satisfying repetition and alliteration. Each animal dream is full of movement and sensory detail, yet still cozy and lyrical - bringing animal friends and restful sleep closer and closer.
