Review

When Willa can't sleep, big brother Willoughby tells her of all the happy things waiting for her to wake up to in the morning. There are her slippers waiting for her feet to slip into them, her playsuit waiting for her to jump out of bed and get dressed, her breakfast waiting to be eaten and her toys dreaming of the games she is going to play. Best of all, there's someone special who's going to be there tomorrow when she opens her eyes. Joyce Dunbar's wonderfully reassuring narrative is beautifully complemented by Debi Gliori's warm and tender illustrations, creating the perfect story to banish night-time fears and help any young child drift peacefully into sleep. --Philippa Reece

Review

"Joyce Dunbar is one of the best writers for children today, and this is a wonderful example of her sensitivity, lyrical style and gentle humour. . . . Debi Gliori's pictures take the text and warm it through with cosy, glowing night-time scenes full of the detail children love. If ever there were a perfect bedtime book, this has to be it" (Guardian)

"Will settle many night-time anxieties of three- to six-year-olds" (The Times)
