Too Scared to Sleep! a Tale of Two Snails

From the brilliant mind of writer, television star and comedian Shaun Micallef comes this hilariously familiar story about the bedtime struggle!

'Happy slumbers, ' whispered Father​

as he left, but soon they started

hearing other sounds - like creaks,

a crack, a crunch, and then ... a SHRIEK!

Tucked up inside their tree-trunk house, two small snails are too scared to sleep - and their father is running out of patience! But is it just the wind spooking them ... or is there something lurking outside? With gorgeous, silly-spooky illustrations from award-winning illustrator Jonathan Bentley, this Halloween picture book will surprise and delight the whole family.

Perfect for pre-school-aged children aged 3+, their sleepless parents, and anyone who's ever had a pet snail.
