Big Beds and Bedtime (Let's Talk About...)

Author(s): Stella Gurney

First Experiences

A first experiences series to read together! Let's Talk About... is a new series of first experience photographic books aimed at toddlers to pre-schoolers and their parents. Informative and humourous, the series marks a departure from existing books of this kind by reflecting young children's and their parents' actual experiences: think real environments and real situations with an authentic toddler's voice, accompanied by useful and sometimes wry information and advice for parents and children. In Big Beds and Bedtime we meet Layla. She's 2 and Mum and Dad say it's time for her to move to a Big Bed! We share this important ritual in any child's life, as Layla prepares for her first night; banishes monsters; attempts some late-night wanderings, and finally wakes, jubilant (if a bit too early). From sleeping in unfamiliar places to getting up in the night; fear of the dark to waking up early, this sleep book has got it all wrapped up (in a big duvet).
