This book is a real joy. It is charming, delightfully absurd and just perfect for bedtime. The idea is deceptively simple, a counting book in which a little boy imagines creatures in the most bizarre situations as he procrastinates his way to bed. The book climaxes in a monster with ten heads who, as one of my children said gleefully, would take 'ages and ages and ages to kiss goodnight'.
