Who's Awake in Springtime?

(4) PS Illustrated by Emilie Chollat. Spring-toned illustrations portray various animals (ducks, cats, etc.) in their natural habitats, with all but one young critter (duckling, kitten, etc.) fast asleep. Each spread also shows a little boy wearing a sheep's costume. The joke, which may require a few readings to get, is that he's another sleep shirker: at book's end, his mother spots him hiding behind a tree.
