Voici l'histoire de Mme Large l'éléphant, qui a juste besoin de cinq minutes de paix et de tranquillité loin de ses enfants turbulents ! Elle se réfugie donc dans la salle de bains, se remplit un bain moussant et chaud et prend un plateau de son petit-déjeuner préféré et le journal du matin. Mais on ne s'ennuie jamais avec les Larges, et il devient vite évident que le moment de tranquillité de maman sera de très courte durée !

Celebrate thirty years of the Large family in this stunning anniversary edition of a modern picture book classic. "If you are not familiar with these stories, you really have not lived ... you just couldn't get better" Guardian A stunning 30th anniversary edition of a family picture book favourite, this is the story of Mrs Large the elephant - who 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! Family life is beautifully observed in this warm and funny modern classic from Jill Murphy, one of Britain's most treasured author-illustrators.
