Sleepyhead Bear by Lisa Westberg Peters, pictures by Ian Schoenherr.

Bear is so sleepy on a hot summer day, but he keeps getting bothered by bugs!  The bugs aren't scared when he growls at them, they just follow him when he goes into the lake, and then he disturbs a bee hive.  It isn't until he is thrown down a hill and lands in a meadow that he discovered insects that he can enjoy.

This book is a great read-aloud with rollicking rhymes, filled with action, plenty of places for giggling, and then concludes with the magic of butterflies filling the air.  Read this one to classes or storytime crowds.  It is just right for preschoolers through kindergarteners and will easily fit into units on insects, butterflies, and bears.
