Time for Bed, Fred!

Meet Fred, a boisterous, fun-loving dog who is full of energy and mischief. Fred will do anything to avoid bedtime - from hiding up trees to splashing in muddy puddles. He buys time by heading for the bath, having a bedtime story read to him and trying out everyone else's bed but his own. But could all that running around have finally tired him out?
This is fresh and original both in its text and style of illustration. Adults and children alike will surely smile at some of its familiar phrases such as: 'OK, you can have a story first. But just one!'
