Product Description

Review
"A picture of childhood which is beautiful and true... A lovely book and a sure winner with any child lucky enough to encounter it." The Junior Bookshelf; "Absolutely wonderful... A perfect picture book." Chris Powling, BBC Radio's Bookshelf

Product Description
A hugely endearing picture book from the makers of the Big Bear and Little Bear series. When the sun goes down and the moon comes up, the toy monkey and his friends, Loopy the elephant and Little Gee the dog, creep softly out of the bedroom, down the stairs and through the dark hall on their way to the deserted park. The park's an exciting place to be after dark, though a little bit scary - especially when the Thing (a night train) hurtles out of the darkness, seeming to chase them. Then the three friends run all the way home and jump back into bed, safe and sound once more. Now a classic story, The Park in the Dark won the 1989 Kurt Maschler Award and has now been reissued to appeal to a new generation of young children.

I bought this book after it featured in Rebus with the lovely John Hannah. He read it to his daughter in the programme. Now all I need is for him to read it to me!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The toys explore in the dark, 3 Feb 2004
By A Customer
I bought this book because I am a huge fan of the "Big Bear and Little Bear" stories by this author. This story follows some toys who head off to the park in the dark to play when they should be home in bed. I didn't think this was as good as his Bear books, (which are wonderful), but it still deserves a '5' as both my 3 and 6 year old think it's enjoyable and it's a good bedtime story as well.
