The Noisy Way To Bed - Tapa dura

Description It's bedtime, but one very sleepy little boy decides to take the long way home to bed . . . with a duck, a sheep, a horse and a pig. What a NOISY way to bed! Gentle, funny and beautifully illustrated, this is a perfect bedtime book from a highly talented author and illustrator.

Ian Whybrow is perhaps best known for his HARRY AND THE BUCKETFUL OF DINOSAURS books, and for LITTLE WOLF, although he is also a former winner of the Smarties Prize and has published several hugely successful books for Macmillan, including THE CHRISTMAS BEAR (0 333 73550 1 - to be reissued for Christmas 2003) and THE TICKLE BOOK (0 333 78151 1). Tiphanie Beeke is rapidly establishing a reputation as one of Britain's top young illustrators. She has published a number of picture books, including the successful SNOW FRIENDS, also written by Ian Whybrow. This is her first picture book for Macmillan. Currently resident in France, Tiphanie will be moving back to the UK in spring 2003.
