A day of small discoveries across three families

Awake, Asleep moves through a young child’s day, from waking to the ordinary rituals of breakfast and a trip to the park. Its brief rhyming text frames these moments as occasions for discovery, while Nadia Alam’s illustrations accompany three families with different structures, including same-sex parents, a single parent, and multigenerational households. In board-book form, the book brings together everyday family life, early childhood, and the changing light of the day in a read-aloud centered on babies and toddlers.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Families seeking a read-aloud about babies’ and toddlers’ everyday routines.
  • Those looking for a picture book featuring varied family structures.
  • Caregivers adding a board book to bedtime or shared storytime.
