«Five Minutes' Peace» is Jill Murphy's children's picture book, published by WordUnited in paperback (32 pages, in English).
Tired of the domestic hustle and bustle, Mrs Large tries to win a moment for herself: she gets into the bath with foam, her breakfast and the newspaper. The calm lasts very little, because the little ones in the family soon find her hiding place. An everyday episode of family life told with affection and humour.
It belongs to Jill Murphy's «Large Family» series, starring the elephant family.
Aimed at children and at shared family reading.
