When the World is Ready for Bed by Gillian Shields
A family of rabbits go through their end-of-day routine, from having their tea to brushing their teeth, sharing a story and being tucked up in bed, until they peek out of the window and see something that's a change from their usual routine in this classic picture book. With delectable art and warm, lyrical text, this is a thoroughly modern picture book with strong echoes of books such as The Velveteen Rabbit and the works of Beatrix Potter.
'Charm and simplicity.. this stands out among the ranks of going-to-bed books' The Bookseller '[A] bedtime story with masses of charm' Nursery Industry
