The perfect book to read before bed. Kids will laugh with exotic animals trying to nap just before they do! It is very hot in the jungle and suddenly a nice breeze arrives. The jaguar wants to take a siesta. Just then he saw a coati and said, “Could you do me a big favor? Could you wake me up in exactly 10 minutes?” The coati wanted a siesta too, and asked the cockatiel to wake him up in exactly 10 minutes. Promising to wake someone up is a big responsibility... --Publisher
