5 Minute Really True Stories for Bedtime

Offering a nonfiction option for families who love 5-minute story collections, this one approaches nonfiction in a brand new way.

Nonfiction-loving children whose busy families only have 5 minutes for a bedtime story will now be able to chose from a wide array of bedtime-related information. From a sweet story about polar bear hibernation to what our brains do when we sleep, from weirdest places to go to bed (tethered to the wall in the International Space Station or bivouacked on a cliff face) to sleep hours in the days before electric lights, the world record for how long someone has managed to stay awake, the tallest bed in the world, and the animals that sleep the most, this book will keep kids riveted and begging for more.
