What is The Little Go-to-sleep Book about?
A little baby does not want to go to sleep, so a mother gently describes how creatures everywhere settle down for the night. Frogs rest on wet lily leaves, mice curl up in warm nests, dogs snooze beside the fire and fish glow beneath the water like they have a night-light. With dreamy scenes, colourful illustrations and a calm, lyrical rhythm, this tender bedtime story guides both child and reader towards peaceful, restful sleep.
