Bear's Nap

Get ready for bedtime with Bear's Nap, a fantastically funny story about an adorable bear trying to get to sleep, full of animal noises that children will love to join in with. From the reliably brilliant creator of Tidy and Monkey and Me. All Bear wants is a quiet nap . . . but he can't work out who is keeping him awake with their cheep cheeping. An increasingly frustrated bear leaves his cosy cave to ask the other animals, but they none of them cheep. Maybe the culprit is closer to home? Everyone will love meeting all the animals, and joining in with their familiar noises, in this very funny, warm, and beautifully illustrated story. Multi-award-winning Emily Gravett is at the height of her powers in this wonderful rhyming tale with a surprise comic ending.
