A bedroom can be many things – a bed, a treasure chest, a world…
It certainly isn’t just a place to sleep. It can be a comfy den or a trampoline, a place for quiet reading and wild adventures. Watch a room change through night and day and become many things to its inhabitants. Jenny Bowers’ illustrations are a dynamic and colourful ode to a child’s creative space.

With so many details to pick up on, the book deserves repeat readings and is ideal for prompting discussions about what children love about their own room.
