One mischievous little lion cub is keen to show how he can act just like his mum. But when it comes to bedtime, there’s no one as good as her!

From the bestselling creator of Hugless Douglas, this humorous, touching tale is a celebration of mums everywhere.

David Melling is one of the UK’s best-loved author-illustrators and his stories combine brilliantly imaginative illustrations with an endearing sense of what it is like to be a small child learning about the world.
