Description

A beautiful new bedtime classic, which celebrates the immeasurable love between a mummy and her baby. For all the stars across the sky, big and little and bright. Here's a wish from me to you, before we say goodnight... Every evening, when the sun is fading, Luna and her mother play a game. They close their eyes, make a wish, and imagine themselves on the most incredible of adventures - swimming with the sound of whale song, flying like birds, and gazing over the tallest treetops... Glowing with lyricism, intimacy and love, this beautiful bedtime story celebrates the bond between parent and child, and is brought majestically to life by illustrator Chiaki Okada.
