Description
When Mum and Dad go away for the night, Aunt Amelia comes to look after one very cross little girl and boy. They do NOT want to be looked after and, even worse, Mum has left a list of boring instructions. But Aunt Amelia turns out to be rather different from expected . . . and a LOT more fun!
Aunt Amelia is a charmingly funny, warm and beautiful story from Rebecca Cobb, the hugely talented creator of Lunchtime.
Gorgeous illustrations accompany sweet, funny, friendly text - every child (and adult!) will wish for an aunt like Amelia!
We were in a bad mood. Aunt Amelia was coming to look after us.
About the Author
Rebecca Cobb is a fast-rising star in children's picture books. Having collaborated on three picture storybooks with Orange-Prize winner Helen Dunmore, Rebecca's solo books include the heart-breakingly beautiful Missing Mummy, the gloriously funny Aunt Amelia and Lunchtime, which won the Waterstone's Children's Picture Book Prize and was shortlisted for the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal. In addition, Rebecca has illustrated picture books written by Richard Curtis, and her stunning artwork accompanies Julia Donaldson's lyrical story The Paper Dolls - also shortlisted for the Greenaway Medal. Rebecca lives in Cornwall with her husband and young daughter.
