Product Description
Product Description
When two little girls visit their grandparents, it seems like a brilliant idea to camp outside for the night. But then the dark comes and it doesn't seem such a good idea after all! Until a most unexpected visitor arrives - the King of Tiny Things. He is the shepherd of creepy crawlies, bugs and grubs and shows the girls that, in fact, the night is bright with magic.
From the creators of The Bog Baby, winner of the Booktrust Early Years Award 2008.

Used this book with my nursery and reception class. They really liked the den building and the minibeasts. The certificates at the back of the book are a nice touch
Format:Paperback
Nice story about over coming fear of creepy crawlies. Nice pics but The Bog Baby and The Beasties are better.
Format:Paperback
I have always enjoyed Jeanne Willis's books since reading "The Bog Baby" to my small Granddaughter,so I had no doubt that this one would be equally as good,and I was'nt disappointed! There is the same magic in the story as in the previous book and Jeanne Willis has the knack of seeing things through a child's eyes.My little Granddaughter loved the story. We shall certainly be buying more of her books in the future!
