Illustrated by Susan Winter.
In this cosiest of winter bedtime books, a mother coaxes a child to tell her own night time story. Making up the story in response to her mother's questions, the child ties a boat to the tail of a whale and sails off to the Arctic. In gentle adventures, she meets polar bears, auks, seals and other beautifully drawn animals before returning safely home.
Smooth rhymes, a reassuring tone and traditional full-page illustrations help tell a gentle story that inspires a child's imagination and encourages them to settle down to sleep.
