Can I Sleep Here? Baby Penguin

A young penguin’s life can be tiring; fishing in the sea or playing in the snow and ice. This Adélie penguin is ready for bed, but first it needs to find the perfect place to sleep! Can you help it? Follow the adorable baby penguin and its parent as they search for the ideal spot for a snooze and lift the flaps to help them decide on the right place to settle down for the night. 

This charming board book is one of a series of three, with the other books featuring a baby monkey and a baby dolphin.The illustrations are simple and clear but still have plenty of natural details in the backgrounds for young readers to spot. Children will have great fun lifting flaps on each page and guessing what might be behind them! 

Ella Bailey’s books make the natural world accessible to a young audience and encourage children to learn basic facts about habitats and the animals that live in them. If your child enjoyed this, try her One Day on Our Blue Planet series which offers slightly more detailed information about natural settings and the wildlife they support.
