From the winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, comes a classic baby bedtime book with a perfect lullaby ending.

Baby, baby soft and sweet, almost good enough to eat! It’s night-night time so come with me, and hear my bedtime recipe.

An utterly charming tale. No bedtime collection should be without it.

“With its tender, gently soporific rhyming text and pictures so beautifully in tune, I can imagine this becoming a bedtime favourite with many a toddler.” – Red Reading Hub

Kirkus Reviews
A treat of a bedtime book
School Library Journal
Bently's gentle nod to the not always easy aspects of bedtime, while still appealing to a very young listener, makes this a standout among others of its ilk. The lulling rhythm of the rhyme scheme is so memorable that the words will likely be recited and woven into family routines.
