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...

A bright and colorful read-aloud, this book's charmingly expressive illustrations and engaging repetition will keep your child at full attention while the animals try to nap!
