The woods are busy at night while we sleep. Who is awake? And what are they up to?
What animals forage by night and sleep by day? This children’s picture book describes the nocturnal lives of nine common animals: foxes, porcupines, raccoons, skunks, opossums, bobcats, owls, mice, and rabbits. Join the animal parents guiding their children through the forest during the dark of night. The book includes information on the common names of the animal’s offspring (for example, a young fox is called a kit).
