Mrs Large the elephant just needs five minutes of peace and quiet away from her boisterous children! So, taking refuge in the bathroom, she fills herself a hot, foamy bubble bath and takes in a tray of her favourite breakfast and the morning paper. But there’s never a dull moment with the Larges, and it soon becomes clear that mum’s quiet time is to be very short-lived! “If you are not familiar with these stories, you really have not lived … you just couldn’t get better” Guardian. Family life is beautifully observed in this warm and funny modern classic from Jill Murphy, one of Britain’s most treasured author-illustrators – celebrate thirty years of the Large family in this stunning anniversary edition of a picture book classic.
