Product Description

While you were sleeping one deep, dark night...one tiger went hunting in the jungle, two mice made a warm, cosy nest in the hay, three bears played chase in the snow . . . In this stunningly illustrated book with its lyrical text, you are taken gently through the night to see and count all kinds of animals in their natural environments.

A Bedtime Treat5
This simple but effective bedtime story has wonderful illustrations and vibrant colours showing what animals
around the world are doing while we are in darkness. Involving
counting from one to ten and spotting the detail in the pictures,
this is ideal material for very young children.

Great bedtime story for babies&toddlers5
This book has beautiful illustrations of animals from around the world. I particulary like that the pictures are not cartoons that don't look anything like the animals that they represent, but are actual drawings. There is one sentence per page, meaning that young readers don't lose interest. It is such a lovely book for babies and toddlers to look at and enjoy.

A lovely bed time book5
this is a lovely bed time book. my three year old still loves the pics and as its not a long story it allows every parent the time to sit down to encourage a childs intrest in books and the child to remain intrested throughout.
