Bedtime for Ella

Ella Elephant is afraid of the dark. Her friends try to assuage Ella`s fears by pointing out all the things that make nighttime special, like tree frogs and stars. Then Ella finds her " very own star" - a pretty white pebble in the river - and, feeling comforted, takes it to bed with her. When her mother bids her goodnight, Ella is already fast asleep! Part of a series of four elephant-shaped board books which deal with toddler experiences. Created by Karen Wallace, and beautifully brought to life by Rebecca Harry`s illustrations, Ella is a very special character, whom young children will love.
