This enchanting book gathers the favorite tales of master storytellers Terry Jones and Nanette Newman, all brought to life in the magical watercolors of Michael Foreman. A boastful herring, a flying tiger, a cat called Spider, a rather unconventional bear, and a beast with a thousand teeth—all these and more are waiting to whisk you away in this delightfully different collection of bedtime stories. Terry Jones is best known as a writer and member of Monty Python. His books for children include Fairy Tales and Fantastic Stories and The Knight and the Squire. Actress and children's writer Nanette Newman is the author of My Granny and Ben's Book. Michael Foreman is the popular author-illustrator of books like Cat and Canary, Little Albatross, and Toro! Toro! He is also the winner of the Smarties Prize and two Kate Greenaway Medals.
