This is a fun story for little ones from author, Hazel Knox and is the first in a new series that will capture the imagination of little imaginations.

There's a great lesson in The Night Pixie to learn to listen before you act and to trust the advice/rules of your elders. Star our little night pixie doesn't do either of these and ends up in trouble (and chocolate cake) when she breaks the cardinal rule her Mum and Grandmother have given her - Day is dangerous.

The artwork from Chris White brings so much life and humour to the trouble our fearless little pixie, Star and her new human friend, Rose get up to. I can imagine many a night before bed checking for pixies in the dim light for little ones in the hope they'll find a magical companion hunting for something to eat in the shadows of a flower pot.

Expect giggles, groans and lots of joy when you're reading this at bedtime.. but keep an eye on that chocolate cake; you don't know what may find its way onto or into it!
