Night Creepers

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Shennen Bersani. Bats, opossums, frogs, fireflies, and more "creep" at night. Over two spreads, rhyming couplets (red foxes "Waking up" is followed by "Noisy pup" on the next page showing wolves) are each accompanied by short paragraphs of facts about the animals. The text and realistic illustrations are serviceable, but both could have done more to demonstrate connections among the nocturnal creatures. Back matter includes educational activities.
