Until now, alphabet books have introduced letters by using nouns. This book presents us with a
new way: using verbs. For each verb, humorous sketches and simple phrases are given: open a
book, open your hand, open the door to go play. When reading this book, adults and children are
invited to engage in play, creativity and discovery. In this way, as Paulo Freire said, reading
becomes an activity in which the world and words meet.

How do animals sleep? The answer to this question is constantly evolving and, although there are
no absolute certainties, in this book you will find thirty-one animals sleeping in unexpected ways.
A bird turning off half of its brain while flyi , a sleepy fly on its f vourite fl wer, and a fish lying o
its bubble bed are just a few examples. Sleep is a form of rest as varied as nature itself. A dream full
of suspense, surprises and oddities. An animal dream!

There are so many diferent kinds of kisses!
Big kisses and tiny ones. They can be kisses between lovers or the saddest ones of all – goodbye
kisses. There are also funny, tickly kisses, like those from pets.
Kisses sound diferent depending on the language: smuack, chū or mua. And you can give one,
two or three, as they do in some parts of France! Kisses from parents are comforting, and those
from grandparents are sweet. There’s a kiss for every occasion and kisses that are never forgotten.
