A very cute short read. The popups are very fun.

Super cute book! This book is filled with all creatures that come to life at night. Although this book doesn’t have much of a plot, it is still a great read for younger age school children. Many students may have not heard of the creatures before, or have ever seen them. This is a great way to introduce them to these animals. I would use this book inside my pre-k or kindergarten classroom. The illustrations in this book are amazing and the animals come to life on the pages, as they pop up while reading. The perfect book to read aloud to the entire class.

Great pop-up book for kids who like animals.
