Roanna loved the cotbed and said it was "a high quality buy". She also appreciated the fact that the gliding action was soft, which helped her fall to sleep.

5. Clair de Lune

The third movement in the 1890 Suite bergamasque of Claude Debussy "Clair de Lune," (French moonlight), is based on Paul verlaine's wistful poetry and gives a dreamy feeling of a sun-drenched Italian small town.
