Seven animals are tucked up snug in bed, but uh-oh, Seal needs a quick trip to the bathroom. Now Crocodile is wide awake and realises she needs to clean her teeth, then Pelican is thirsty, and Fox needs her cuddly rabbit.
One by one, they all get up, tip tap or pit pat out, and into bed with their child owner. She’s pleased to see them, then not, and finds a pungent but effective way to send them back!
The payoff will catch all readers by surprise and this snowball story will captivate children and adults alike. Susanne Strasser’s illustrations are bold, simple and hugely expressive. This bedtime story is so good!
It’s bedtime. Hedgehog, Fox, Donkey, Pelican and Crocodile are so tired! But Seal needs to use the bathroom—slip slap slip, out the door. Crocodile forgot to clean those sharp teeth—shlurf shlurf, out the door. And Pelican is thirsty . . .
One by one the animals climb out of bed, until everyone is piled in the child’s bed for a last goodnight kiss. Oof, that’s a heavy pile! What happens now?
Susanne Strasser’s snowballing animal stories that children love are bestsellers in multiple languages. This funny in-and-out-of-bed story ends with a timely fart joke to start the fun all over again.
