Handas Noisy Night ISBN: 9781406320015

Eileen Brownes hotly anticipated sequel to Handas Surprise is a warm, funny story about night time fears with a cast of nocturnal animals When Handa has a sleepover with her friend Akeyo, the girls are allowed to spend the night in a little hut near the house. Theyre excited to be on their own, but as they get ready for bed, Handa feels more and more nervous. She keeps hearing things - strange snorts, chitter chattering, a big thud. Akeyo says its only her noisy family, but on the opposite page the reader sees the nocturnal animals who are really making the noise - and while some of them are familiar, others are very peculiar-looking indeed! With rich, night-time illustrations, sound effects, and plenty of curious animals, Handas Noisy Night demands to be read aloud and shared - whether in the classroom or tucked up in bed at home.
