|summary=Julia Donaldson is probably best known for her collaborations with [[:Category:Axel Scheffler|Axel Scheffler]] on creations such as [[The Gruffalo by Julia Donaldson|The Gruffalo]] and [[Stick Man by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler|Stick Man]]. In this book she has teamed up with illustrator, [[:Category:Karen George|Karen George]], in order to present a charming yet sleepy character, Lydia Lou. Throughout this delightful picture book, we see Lydia Lou, with her sweep of curly brown locks, sleeping soundly and contentedly in her bed with her teddy. She is sleeping so soundly that it appears that nothing will wake her; not even the sly ghost that creeps into her room with the sole intention of making her scream.
