Sleep Like a Tiger: A Caldecott Honor Award Winner by Mary Logue

A magical bedtime story, honored as a Caldecott Honor Book. In sincere and imaginative dialogue between a child and her kind and understanding parents, the little girl decides ""in a cocoon of sheets, a nest of blankets,"" she is ready to sleep, warm and strong, just like a tiger. The lyrical narrative echoes a Runaway Bunny–like cadence: ""Does everything in the world go to sleep?"" the little girl asks. Artist Pamela Zagarenski's rich, luminous mixed-media paintings effervesce with charming details that non-yet-sleepy children can examine for hours. A rare gem.
