Format:Hardcover
This book captures perfectly the warm relationship between a young rabbit who can't sleep and her big brother. It is beautifully observed and the feelings of Willa, the baby rabbit are almost tangible as is her brother's patient and soothing conversation. As usual, Debi Gliori's pictures capture the mood exactly. This book will captivate young children, paticularly those with a younger sibling and cannot fail to touch any parent. You'll be asking your chidren if you can read it!

Quite simply this boxed set is a delight. The story of young Willa who does not want to go to bed is something to which any parent can relate. As the book progresses, Willa's loving older brother, Willoughby helps her to think happy thoughts and finally coaxes her to go to bed, where she eventually falls into peaceful slumber.
Every time I read this book to my son Josh, it makes me smile and it leaves him feeling comforted and relaxed enough to fall off to sleep. The cuddly toy, Willa, is his very favourite toy without which he cannot sleep and I am anxious to read the sequel to this story which I am convinced will be just as beautifully written and perfectly illustrated.

Lovely book! Worked very well for my boy who suffer separation difficulties as it normalise the distress before bedtime. Good way to teach about emotions. Also, very good alternative to social story for children with special needs.
