    Eleanor Farjeon (1881-1965) was an English author of children's stories and plays, poetry, biography, history and satire. This is one of her charming story about naughty children who turn into animals, as a consequence of their refusal to go to sleep.

    Colourfully illustrated throughout by the artist Kathleen Burrell, who also illustrated several of the Mr Popplecorn books by Margaret Musson.

    Condition
