Synopsis

The very first classic Kipper book read by Dawn French, perfect for sharing together at cuddle time.

Kipper's basket is old and worn, so he decides to look for a new place to sleep! Maybe he could build a nest like the squirrels, stand on one leg like the ducks ... Or sit on a lily-pad like the frogs? But, eventually, Kipper realises that there's nowhere quite like his cosy basket, surrounded by all his favourite toys.

Kipper has been a much-loved character for over 25 years.

(P) 2003 Hodder & Stoughton
