A little look inside.

A little wind arrives in a swirl of leaves. It has never tried a bed, a pillow or a pair of slippers. Bunny invites it to stay, and a quiet evening becomes gently topsy-turvy.

Read the pictures and words together, or let the cast tell the story while you turn the pages.

From the book

Shall we turn the page?

Bunny shakes doormat at open cottage door as little Wind curls from a few leaves. One yellow leaf sticks flat to Bunny nose; Bunny peers cross-eyed at it while Wind smiles in curious greeting.
Bunny was shaking out the doormat when a little wind arrived inside a swirl of leaves. One yellow leaf stuck to Bunny’s nose. “Are you visiting?” “Could I sleep over? I’ve never tried a bed.” “I have a spare pillow.”
One spare guest pillow rises above floor with Wind curling underneath after a little puff. Bunny stands beside it, one paw lifted in mildly puzzled explanation; original bed pillow remains on bed.
Bunny laid the pillow beside the bed. The wind curled onto it, wriggled underneath it, then gave a little puff. The pillow rose into the air. “Is this how pillows work?” “Usually they stay lower.”

Good to know.

Can we read without narration?

Yes. Turn the pages and read the words together. Narration is optional and begins only when you press play.

What can we download?

Read, listen and keep the story. Find the PDF, EPUB and complete read-aloud under Downloads for grown-ups at the end of the reader.

How should we choose a story?

Try the pictures, the opening and the voices. Pointing, listening, joining a sound or talking about a picture are all ways to share it. Choose the pace and level of help that suit your child.
