Off to Bed With You, Little Marmot!

A sweet adventure story for very young children

Illustrations by Nadine Reitz

Marmie the little marmot has to go to bed soon. But before she goes, she wants to roll down the hill, bathe in the stream and go and find something to munch on. There’s so much to experience! Can you help? As the sun gradually starts to set, it really is time for the little marmot to head home and snuggle up safe and sound in her den. But this is easier said than done – because a stubborn ibex is blocking her way, and after all that playing the mountainside suddenly feels very steep indeed. Help Marmie get home safely and bring her back to her cosy den. Right at the end, give her little nose a stroke and tell her: sleep well, little marmot!
