PRODUCT INFORMATION

Description

There's No Such Book is a funny and heartwarming that will resonate with anyone who has experienced the frenzy of Book Week.

It's the night before the Book Week parade and Ellie announces that she needs a costume by the morning. Mum, who is taken by surprise, desperately tries to piece together a costume from what’s lying around the house …

They went into the bathroom. β€˜Hmm,’ said Mum. β€˜Don’t I remember once reading you a book about a monster whose skin looked like it was made of bright green towels?’ β€˜No,’ said Ellie. β€˜There is no such book.’

Ellie heads to bed only with Mum's promise that she’ll have a costume sorted by the morning. Mum stays true to her word, but perhaps not in the way that Ellie was hoping.
