Publisher's Synopsis
It is Mr Large's birthday and Mrs Large has prepared him a meal, as they are going to celebrate with a quiet night in. Mrs Large gets the children ready for bed before her husband arrives, intending to get them out of sight soon afterwards. But, as usual in the Large household, things do not go to plan. Mr Large arrives home tired and falls asleep while reading the children their bedtime story and then Mrs Large does the same. So the little Larges put themselves to bed - and take the food with them!;Jill Murphy has written and illustrated four "Worst Witch" titles, "Geoffrey Strangeways", "Worlds Apart", "Five Minutes' Peace" (winner of the 1987 Best Book For Babies Award), "All in one Piece" (commended for the Kate Greenaway Medal) and "A Piece of Cake".
