It's Snorey Time!

I've just received my copies of a new book that I illustrated for Templar Publishing. It was written by Meg and Catherine Pybus, a mother-daughter team. The book is designed to make little ones calm and hopefully fall asleep. It has a lovely audio CD too, guaranteed to make you ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzz.

It's Snorey Time (January 2012) Written by Meg and Catherine Pybus

Meet the Snoreys – Mummy, Daddy, Mop, Snuggle, Snuffle and Pignut. This family of dormice love to sleep, all except the youngest, Pignut. Instead, he goes on an adventure around the forest and discovers the dormouse-written 'Secret Book of Sleep'. Reading it, Pignut finally drops off. Underlying this delightful tale is a secret weapon for exhausted parents – the story is written using simple neurolinguistic techniques, designed to have a soporific effect on the listener. Also includes an audio version of the tale.

I had such fun working on the illustrations for this story. And Templar are a dream to work for. Big thanks to Mike Jolly!

​Here we have pignut trying to hang like his friend Batty. Although dormice are excellent climbers, little Pignut is rather sleepy and he falls down, down, down onto a pile of leaves. But there is someone under the the leaves, trying to sleep.

The end... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
