School Library Journal - 09/01/2014 PreS—It's naptime, but these animals are not taking a nap for a various reasons. "I don't have time for a nap," says the gazelle, who has already run halfway off the page. The hyena simply laughs at the idea, while the elephant claims to be too big for a nap, and the lion declares, "Kings don't take naps." The playful text perfectly matches each animal's expressive image. Grumpy toddlers protesting naptime are laughably represented by these zoo animals. The concise dialogue and uncomplicated coloring book style of art offer a simple, amusing read. Bold outlines are filled in with gray, green, or gold, while an occasional broad stripe of red brightens some pages. After sharing this book, some precocious toddlers are likely to respond with one of these animals' contrary sentiments, such as "A nap? No way!"—Gaye Hinchliff, King County Library System, WA - Copyright 2014 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
