Baby Bat is full of beans and he does not want to go to bed. At least not until Snail, Caterpillar, Spider and the Moon are tucked in and he thinks the whole world is sleeping. Will Mummy Bat ever manage to get Baby Bat off to sleep? -
Add to BasketHamish The Highland Cow - Paperback -

Hamish is a Highland cow and very hairy. He hates having baths and never cuts his hair. Why should he when his shaggy coat is the perfect place to keep his favourite sweets - toffees! But one day his friends get fed up with the increasingly smelly Hamish and hatch a plan.
