In sincere and imaginative dialogue between a not-at-all sleepy child and understanding parents, the little girl decides “in a cocoon of sheets, a nest of blankets,” she is ready to sleep, warm and strong, just like a tiger. The Caldecott Honor artist Pamela Zagarenski’s rich, luminous mixed-media paintings effervesce with odd, charming details that nonsleepy children could examine for hours. A rare gem. Review: Earned a place in the faves! - My toddler (2, approaching 3 in a few months) has been requesting this book every night for bed, despite the 15 or so sleep-centric books to choose from for nighttime reading. Before I saw this book we had been having conversations about how EVERYTHING sleeps, even trees and germs and bugs and grownups and whatever other organic life I could think of. When I came across this book I was first just excited it mentioned tigers (he had a tiger phase a while back and still enjoys them). Then I read some preview pages and the reviews and loved that it’s exactly what I’ve been talking about with him!!! As an added bonus, he is now in a bird phase (part 3 or 4…it comes and goes) and has to make a nest before he sleeps, because every night at bedtime he undergoes a transformation into a baby bird. So I LOVED the page where the girl is in her nest bed too! After reading this book, my son literally curls up and goes right to sleep. No kicking the wall, no screaming for water or Mama or that he can’t see (because his nightlight is too dim for sleeping I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️). Bliss 😌 The story is very sweet and to the point, and I enjoy that the author crafted the story in such a way that it feels more like a “big kid” book without being too lengthy or conceptual. I will also add that the art style is very cool, and I’m glad I’m really good at memorizing text because I can have a chance to find new details in the art as I half-read, half-recite the book to him! Really amazing collage work! Highly recommend this book to anyone whose child is having sleep troubles due to an imagination in hyperdrive, who also wants to gently support that imagination in a positive manner instead of screaming “IT’S TIME FOR BABY BIRDS TO SLEEP NOW, GOODNIGHTILOVEYOU!!!” through the door. Review: Best bedtime storybook ever - I was completely captivated by this book. The illustrations by Pamela Zagarenski are beautiful and magical, the perfect accompaniment to Mary Logue's delightful tale of an imaginative little girl who doesn't want to go to sleep and the equally imaginative parents who adore her. Just as my 4-year-old self loved looking for the mouse and watching the passage of time in the hands of the clock and the shadows creeping across the room on the pages of "Goodnight, Moon", today's children should enjoy finding all of the wonderful details on the pages of "Sleep Like a Tiger". I have a slightly different take on the characters than some of the other reviewers. I do not see this as a royal family and this child is not a princess, except perhaps in her own imagination. They live in a village in a house no more or less grand than those around it. The house is simple and cozy with few furnishings and no servants. There is a dog, a cat, and a warm fireplace, not unlike what many children grow up with. The little girl wears her crown to bed; if you look carefully little crowns and wheels appear throughout the book, a part of the artist's fanciful style. However, the beauty of a children's book is that it can be whatever you imagine so perhaps they are a king, queen and princess after all. I have both the hardbound version and the Kindle version of this book. A few words about the Kindle version ... as is true of any picture book, the Kindle version cannot replace the full size book that you can hold in your hands. However, the Kindle version is wonderfully portable for waiting rooms and such, the artwork is still lovely to look at, and your hardbound copy can stay safely at home. The formatting of the book on the Kindle is a function of the Kindle app on your device. Complaints about app functionality need to be addressed to the app developers as they are the only ones who can fix them. If you think you might be bothered by the smaller size of the pages on your tablet, the Kindle version may not be for you, but this fabulous book deserves 5 stars. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #27,036 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #42 in Children's Lion, Tiger & Leopard Books (Books) #200 in Children’s Books on Sleep #558 in Children's Books on Emotions & Feelings (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 1,792 Reviews | ## Images ![Sleep Like a Tiger: A Soothing Bedtime Story About Falling Asleep for Children (Ages 4–8) (Caldecott Medal - Honors Winning Title(s)) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81l+2Do2ajL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Earned a place in the faves! *by A***A on January 7, 2024* My toddler (2, approaching 3 in a few months) has been requesting this book every night for bed, despite the 15 or so sleep-centric books to choose from for nighttime reading.

She is 3 and we have quite the collection of bedtime stories. We take sleep VERY seriously in our home so we are always renewing our collection of books which give a positive message about sleep and its importance. We were not at all disappointed with this book. The illustrations are more colorful and detailed than we usually like, my daughter and I usually prefer simple, gentle, and minimalist, but they are so inspiring and whimsical we could not help but fall in love. The illustrations themselves really tell several stories that go much deeper than the written words. Maybe not something a child can grasp right off the bat, but I love children's books with an element that enchants the adult reader as well. This is a great book for the family to enjoy. I can easily see an older sibling snuggling with a younger one while this book is read, and everyone enjoying the words and illustrations. The actual written story is short. With a slow, steady pace and maybe a bit of dramatic flair in your voice, you can easily extend the reading. If you aren't sure, check it out from the library first. I highly recommend at least giving it a try. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sleep Like a Tiger: A Caldecott Honor Award Winner (Caldecott Medal - Honors Winning Title(s)) - Hot Dog: (Winner of the 2023 Caldecott Medal) - Waiting: A Caldecott Honor Award Winner --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/495156-sleep-like-a-tiger-a-soothing-bedtime-story-about-falling](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/495156-sleep-like-a-tiger-a-soothing-bedtime-story-about-falling) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
