A lovely bouncy story book that will encourage even the most reluctant toddler to go to bed - even the words bounce around the pages! Follow an enchanting array of animals as they all make their way to the pillow-soft bed in the sky. Alliterative text flows through the story as we meet all sorts of sleepy creatures on their way to bed. Soft muted colours in the illustrations by Russell Julian, especially when the animals are finally all safely tucked in, convey a restful atmosphere. I enjoyed the fact that the animals aren't actually named, so children will have fun identifying their favourites. The ideal bedtime story as all the animals run out of bounce and succumb to sleep - just like your little one!
