This popular title from the Lion Storyteller series has had worldwide sales of over 120,000 copies, has been translated into 7 different languages, and now it's available in paperback. Bob Hartman's retellings of 40 warm and reassuring bedtime stories, taken from around the world and retold especially for reading aloud, are combined with Kriszta Kallai Nagy's naive and colourful illustrations, which give a freshness to the text.
Useful storytelling tips from the author are included to help with reading the stories aloud. 'As the author says in the introduction: "Bedtime stories need to leave the listener with that safe, warm, happily-ever-after feeling." And that's what this collection does, time and time again.'
