A classic, magical collection from one of the UK's most notable and well-loved children's authors, Eleanor Farjeon

For every day of the year Eleanor Farjeon provides a scrap of fun or fancy, poetry or nonsense, fact or fable. Here young readers can set out with Will Kemp on his nine-day dance from London to Norwich and read the lovely tale of the Seven Sleepers of Ephesus, as well as celebrate Lincoln's birthday with a poem, and Christmas with a carol.

A wonderful, timeless and utterly unique read for the whole family.
