Description
With beautiful illustrations by the hugely successful Migy Blanco and a rhyming text by Karl Newson that rolls off the tongue, this book follows Little Owl on a magical, shooting star-filled day (or should we say night).
As all the other animals settle down to sleep, Little Owl swoops around the sky, blowing the stars out so it's all dark, until the sun arrives and it's morning... but for one Little Owl, it's time for bed.
Little Owl's Bedtime is a delightful journey that captures the imagination with its enchanting illustrations and soothing rhythm, perfect for a bedtime read.
