While You Were SleepingBoard Books, 4 September 2001

Take a trip through the animal world in this exquisitely-illustrated counting book.

While young Daisy sleeps, animals play and swim and fly. When she wakes up, her mother tells her about each animal in turn.

John Butler's lyrical text and vivid pictures make this a special book for sharing. Children can learn to count while they discover what animals do while we're asleep, and adults will be equally enchanted by the luminous beauty of Butler's brilliant, detailed illustrations.
