- Snooze-o-rama : the strange ways that animals sleep / by Birmingham, Maria.; Reed, Kyle.;
Includes bibliographical references."Just like people, animals have their own sleep routines-but in the wild, these bedtime habits are a little wackier than the teeth brushing and pj-donning that you're used to. Aimed at the same early-nonfiction category as Do Frogs Drink Hot Chocolate, Maria Birmingham's latest book project, Snooze-O-Rama, draws playful comparisons between the ways humans and animals sleep, bringing a new angle of interest to an aspect of children's daily routines that they might otherwise take for granted. Each animal snooze fact is prompted by something that kids do in their own bedtime routine, making the STEM content relatable and hilarious to kids! Kyle Reed's vibrant collage style illustrations bring the animals to life with colour and personality, cleverly connecting the bridge between the animal and human comparison. Examples from the book: "While you cover yourself with a blanket ... an otter wraps itself in seaweed" "While you doze off on a long trip ... a frigate bird nods off as it soar." "While you pull on your pj's ... a parrotfish snuggles up in slime.""--Provided by publisher.Ages 4-8Grades 2-3LSC- Subjects: Sleep behavior in animals; Bedtime;

- Being a beast : adventures across the species divide / by Foster, Charles,1962-;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Becoming a beast -- Earth 1 : badger -- Water : otter -- Fire : fox -- Earth 2 : red deer -- Air : swift.To test the limits of our ability to inhabit lives that are not our own, Charles Foster set out to know the ultimate other: the nonhumans. To do that, he chose five animals and lived alongside them, sleeping as they slept, eating what they ate, learning to sense the landscape through the senses they used. In this lyrical, intimate, and completely radical look at the lives of animals, Charles Foster mingles neuroscience and psychology, nature writing and memoir, and ultimately presents an inquiry into the human experience in our world, carried out by exploring the full range of the life around us.LSC- Subjects: Foster, Charles, 1962-; Animal behavior.; Animals; Animals; Animals; Human-animal relationships.; Nature writers;

- The best bed for me / by Cornwall, Gaia.;
Mama and Mommy would like Sweet Pea to settle into bed, but it's not quite time. Even though the bed is fluffy, it's not as snuggly as curling up like a pig in the mud, or as spacious as sleeping in the wide ocean like a blue whale. It's not as fun as sleeping high up in a tree like a koala, or hanging upside down like a bat. And it's definitely not as relaxing as sleeping standing up, like an emperor penguin. But after mimicking all the ways different animals rest, this little one concedes that a comfy bed, a soft pillow, and a good-night wish offer the best way to fall asleep after all.LSC- Subjects: Bedtime; Sleep; Lesbian-parent families; Animal behavior;

- Total cat mojo : the ultimate guide to life with your cat / by Galaxy, Jackson,author.; Delgado, Mikel,author.; Rock, Bobby,author.;
"This comprehensive cat care guide from the star of the hit Animal Planet show "My Cat from Hell," Jackson Galaxy, shows us how to eliminate feline behavioral problems by understanding cats' instinctive behavior. Cat Mojo is the confidence that cats exhibit when they are at ease in their environment and in touch with their natural instincts--to hunt, catch, kill, eat, groom, and sleep. Problems such as litter box avoidance and aggression arise when cats lack this confidence. Jackson Galaxy's number one piece of advice to his clients is to help their cats harness their mojo. This book is his most comprehensive guide yet to cat behavior and basic cat care, rooted in understanding cats better. From getting kittens off to the right start socially, to taking care of cats in their senior years, and everything in between, this book addresses the head-to-toe physical and emotional needs of cats--whether related to grooming, nutrition, play, or stress-free trips to the vet"--- Subjects: Cats.; Cats;
