Shhh!
If you’re looking for an enchanting bedtime story, then look no further; the highly talented, unfailingly original Barroux has created the ideal snuggle under the duvet book for parents and carers to share with their little ones.
Beautifully restful, we share a small child’s bedtime routine where, inspired by his toys, his flights of fancy take him to a beautiful sequence of dreamy landscapes as the world slows down, the moon climbs quietly into the sky, and animals prepare for sleep. Shhh! You might even hear the snow falling on the polar bear, the whale sing its soft song, the elephant whispering sweet nothings, the hippo’s yawn or even, the toucan counting sheep. Shhh!
Simple, lyrical and captivatingly illustrated, this bedtime tale from Barroux will likely become a part of the pre-sleep routine and a beautifully calming way to bid goodnight to pre-schoolers, even the more reluctant among them.
