Millicent Marmalade is a little girl with a big imagination and her mum is a mum who has to put up with it. It is Millicent’s bed time but she’s having trouble actually getting into her bed.
“Mum, I can’t get into my bed,” said Millicent.
“Why not?” asked Millicent’s mum.
“It’s full of clocks.”
“Clocks?” “Yes, roundy-roundy-ringy-belly-ticky-tocky clocks!” said Millicent.
