AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'One night a little boy dreams .... In a not-so-faraway land filled with fairies and pixies, goblins and ogres everyone sleeps with him. Everyone, that is, except the busy elves who sew with all their might - sewing a quilt of moon and stars to wrap around him.

'A dreamy, magical bedtime story filled with fairytale characters that children know and love.' (Publisher's blurb)
