This delightful collection features stories concerned with sleeping and waking, dreams and night time, and around each tale is woven the theme of a familiar lullaby or bedtime song.

There are also many memorable characters - helpful crows, a malicious kelpie, Gladiolus the invisible cat and a girl who dreams of her future brother.

This is a very special collection of goodnight stories, combining real life, magic and fantasy, from acclaimed author Joan Aiken.
