Synopsis
This charming and reassuring bedtime story about nighttime fears and sweet dreams is now a padded board book. When little bunny Willa can't sleep, big brother Willoughby helps her think of all the happy things that await her when the sun comes up--cozy slippers, a yummy breakfast, and the morning itself, which loves to gently nudge her awake. For Willa, the happiest thing of all is knowing that Willoughby will be there in the morning, too, just like always.
With soothing text, sweet illustrations, and cuddly bunny characters, this read-aloud is a comforting way to say goodnight and sweet dreams.

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)
