The story of Sleeping Beauty but not as you know it, Very Little Sleepy Beauty is a wonderfully funny fairy tale with a toddler twist.
Teresa Heapy (Author)
Teresa swapped the office desk for the kitchen table in 2009,
having worked as a Commissioning Editor for Oxford University Press
for several years and deciding that what she really wanted to do
was write books. Since then, she has written about gorillas,
Batman, the ugly duckling and green goo (not all in the same book)
for Raintree, Pearson, OUP and HarperCollins. In her spare time,
she does comedy improvisation and plays the ukulele. She lives in
Oxford, England, with her husband and three children.

Sue Heap (Illustrator)
Sue Heap is a children's picture book illustrator and story writer.
She has worked in collaboration with a number of writers including
Sally Lloyd-Jones. Sue and Sally worked on a series of How to . . .
books with How to be a Baby being a New York Times bestseller.
Another of Sue's books is Cowboy Baby, inspired by a visit to
Arizona, which won the prestigious Gold Smarties Award for best
picture book. Sue lives in Oxfordshire.
This is another enchanting addition to the Heapy/Heap Very Little
series and the maps on the inside front and back covers suggest
more to come: I hope so. Reading these books aloud is a delight and
I can’t wait for my first opportunity to grab some suitably small
children and share this one with them.

With lovable and distinctive characters, it has a very easy-reading
and gentle style of writing and is a feel-good tale; just the right
length to send toddlers off to sleep . . . Very Little Sleeping
Beauty makes an engaging and easy read for young children that will
be clamoured for again and again at bedtime (and a brilliant thing
too!).
