What is The Bedtime Frog about?

Posy is having a wonderful sleepover at Pip’s house until bedtime arrives and she realises her favourite frog toy is missing. Pip tries to help by offering different toys, including his frog-shaped money box, but Posy knows they are all the wrong frog. When Pip gives her his treasured pig toy, Posy finally feels comforted. With kindness, understanding and a very special new bedtime companion, the friends settle down for a peaceful night’s sleep.
