A warm, inviting bedtime book from a Caldecott winning illustrator. "Bear sniffed once. She sniffed twice. 'I smell winter in the air. . . .'" A chill is in the air and Bear knows it is time for her winter nap. But first, she must tell Snail. And Snail must tell Skunk. And Skunk must tell Turtle. Each animal who tries to put off going to sleep just a little longer sees, smells, hears, or tastes the signs of the impending season. Finally, Ladybug rushes off to tell Bear--already asleep in her cave--the exciting news. Denise Fleming presents a warm-hearted story about animals of the forest settling down for their winter nap. But, like children who must go to bed for the night, they each find a way to put it off just a little bit longer. Richly illustrated in fall colors, Denise Fleming's Time to Sleep world is right on target for preschoolers. Review: Perfect book for 0-5! - Iโm a childcare provider and use this book when weโre learning about hibernation. The kids all love it, and I love the simple storyline that can be built upon as the littles get older. The pictures are great, easy for little ones to see how they relate to the story. Review: โค๏ธโค๏ธ - Great book for teaching preschoolers specific topics in the classroom. Book is sturdy and good quality.

A solid 4 1/2 stars!
This book is a sweet story about how all the animals dont' want to start hibernating until they tell their other animal friends. The illustrations are nice and not the exact illustrations we are use to. I was also pleased my 6 year old son was able to extrapulate which animals hibernate. At the end he said, "I didn't know skunks hibernated like bears."
