Summary/Back cover:

Ed loves going to bed, but STAYING in bed is another matter!  How will Mum and Dad help him overcome his night fears so that everyone can have a good night's sleep?

Review:

Having trouble getting your little one to stay in bed each night?  So do Ed's Mum and Dad and this lovely book will at the very least be something you can relate to and at it's most, might help with your childs bedtime issues.

The bold and bright illustrations are instantly attractive to little childrens eyes and the injection of onomatopoeia helps hold their attention. There is the opportunity to ham it up as well, with crying, snoring, raised and then quiet voices, all adding interest to the story.  And the story itself will appeal to older children, whether they have trouble staying in bed or not.

4/5
