The Last Book Before Bedtime by Nicola O'byrne

Favourite fairy tales are turned upside down in this laugh-out-loud bedtime story, where everyone wants to be the hero. Everyone knows that the very last story before bed is the best story of all, but what if ALL the fairy tale characters want part of the action?! It's chaos! Cinderella hijacks the story of The Three Little Pigs, adamant that her story is the best, then Little Red Riding Hood jumps in, insisting that her story is better because it's full of danger. And then, uh-oh, the Big Bad Wolf turns up too! But then disaster strikes - the reader is still awake and needs a story! With some much-needed teamwork, the characters make up a story together and one with enough funniness, romance, danger AND cake (obviously) to keep everyone happy. A reinvented fairy tale to make the whole family laugh, with wonderfully witty illustrations and a peep-through hole in the cover! By the bestselling picture book author, Nicola O'Byrne, winner of the Waterstone's Children's Book Prize 2014. Can't get enough?
