Stories and Songs for Bedtime is a dreamy collection from award-winning artist, Ian Beck. He has chosen a selection of soothing lullabies, sleepy rhymes, and lyrical poems to complement his own spirited retellings of such fairytale favourites as 'Beauty and the Beast', 'The Frog Prince', and 'Cinderella'. Each story and every verse is beautifully illustrated in its own distinct style. Taking inspiration from some of the great movements in the history of fine and applied arts, Ian Beck has created a lovely book for adults and children to share at bedtime. This is a book that is destined to become a children's classic.
