The Quickest Bedtime Story Ever! The Sunday Times "Best Children's Book 2023"

Like all good bedtime stories, The Quickest Bedtime Story Ever, ends with everyone tucked up in bed. But, unlike other bedtime stories, there are all manner of silly checks and ridiculous rituals for everyone to complete along the way before it's time to properly settle down. Kate Hindley's fun illustrations complement Louise Fitzgerald's text beautifully to create the perfect picture book to share.

A bedtime story with a difference - I love the interactive element! Can't wait to give this to my niece!

This is one of the best picture book stories I’ve read in a long long time. Refreshingly different, captivating and bound to be read again and again at betimes in houses everywhere. The illustrations are gorgeous and the writing is fab. Can’t wait to see what this author comes out with next.

Bought this as a present for our 3yo’s birthday and she’s asked for it every night since. It’s helped with bedtime battles/ getting pyjamas on with the promise of reading this book after! What more could a parent want …

My toddler (2) loves this book! It’s not your usual story book but an interactive & fun way to get the littles ready for bed. Great concept and lovely to have something a bit different on the bookshelf.

My two children both found this interactive bedtime story hilarious!They loved joining in by warming up their voices, tucking in and arranging their toys and performing a gentle fanfare before starting the 10 word story! We also loved the hilarious illustrations throughout!A funny and entertaining read!

My children love this book and it’s their first choice to read at bedtime. Well written with a fun sense of humour and really well illustrated. Creates lots of interaction and cleverly prepares the children for sleep time.

It is quick, not so sure it works, but we all laughed
