When Rudy goes to Femi's house for a sleepover, he discovers that his friend has been keeping a secret: Femi sleepwalks. And when Rudy accidentally leaves the bedroom window open he learns that not only does Femi walk in his sleep, he also skateboards in his sleep. At great speed. Can he guide Femi back to safety without waking him up?

With boundless energy and an impulsive nature, Rudy is always ready to follow the scent of adventure! And with his loyal pack of friends by his side there's nothing he can't achieve. When Rudy and Edie go to Femi's house for a sleepover, they discover that their friend has been keeping a secret: Femi sleepwalks. They're under strict instructions that if he sleepwalks while they're there they must not, under any circumstances, wake him up, but should just gently guide him back to bed. Which sounds fine, but when Rudy accidentally leaves the bedroom window open and Femi gets outside and starts zooming down the street on his skateboard, all the time being fast asleep, gently guiding him back to bed starts to feel a little more complicated. Can they catch up with the snoring skateboarding mummy before he wakes up?

Howlingly cool illustrations and an irresistible character finding his way in the world make Rudy and the Secret Sleepskater the ideal choice for those looking to bridge the gap between picture books and independent reading.
