Description

Do you ever take an afternoon nap? A polar bear does! It curls up on the cold snow, using its fur coat for a comforter and its big paw for a pillow. An iguana would rather snooze on the rocky shore, basking in the sunshine. From walruses to chimpanzees, all animals need a little shut-eye. In these pages, you'll discover who snoozes and who snores!
