The Sunset Switch

By Kudlinski, Kathleen V.

Publishers Summary:
The Sunset Switch reveals the moment when daytime animals go to sleep and nighttime animals take over. The text is packed with information about animals and their habits, and it's cleverly organized into six pairs of animals that eat the same foods. Swallows hunt mosquitoes during the day, and bats chase them at night. Other animals featured include the gray squirrel and flying squirrel, snowy egret and night heron, and butterfly and moth. The ending brings readers back to morning, when the sunrise switch begins. Perfect as either a bedtime story or a 'wake-up' book, this gorgeous picture book shows how the animal world takes turns. It also gives readers an exciting glimpse into the night.
