Bookroo's summary

In a deep, dark night, Little Baby Mummy craves one last game of hide-and-shriek with Big Mama Mummy. As friendly creatures flit by, a scritchy-scratchy surprise awaits. Who will soothe Little Baby Mummy's fears? Discover a heartwarming tale of comfort and courage in this slightly spooky bedtime adventure.

From the publisher

This gently spooky read-aloud treat is also a satisfying bedtime book – sure to delight the youngest reader on many a deep, dark night. Little Baby Mummy wants just one more game of hide-and-shriek with Big Mama Mummy before bedtime. The night is deep and dark, full of friendly creatures that click their clacky teeth and whoosh past on flippy-floppy wings. But who will comfort Little Baby Mummy if a small, scritchy-scratchy someone gives him a scare? Big Mama Mummy, of course! Fresh, comical illustrations complement this everso- slightly suspenseful story with a satisfying ending.
