Product Description

Review
"A reassuring read that challenges readers to look and think beyond their initial fears." -- Achuka.com

Product Description
This title is suitable for the children of ages 5 to 7 years. A carousel of words and pictures, this touching tale puts a playful spin on the common childhood fear of the nighttime. A little girl who has always been afraid of the dark embarks upon an amazing adventure that explains why the night follows the day and begins to make friends with things she had once feared. Thoughtful and inspiring, this family fable examines the purpose of night and the dreams that accompany it. The free, downloadable booklet with suggestions for further activities is available at website named wingedchariot.

5.0 out of 5 stars A celebration of dreams, 17 Mar 2009

A Night-Time Tale (Contemporary Children's books from across the Globe)

I love this book ! It's targetted at children but could be a pleasure for someone of any age. (I am 42, for example.) The beautiful and-yes-dreamy illustrations draw the reader into wonderful and enthralling worlds and show why night-time is special and need not be frightening.

The book is written and illustrated by a young German artist Alexandra Junge, and I'm very much looking forward to her next book.
