Does your little one hide under the covers when the sun goes down? Join Luna, a star who is afraid of the Great Dark, on a magical journey to find her own inner glow.
While all the other stars are busy sleeping during the day, Luna stays wide awake. She loves her friend the Sun because he is bright and warm-but to Luna, the night is just too dark. When the moon rises, instead of twinkling for the world below, Luna hides behind a thick, grey cloud blanket.
But everything changes when she meets Ollie, the Great Horned Owl.
With gentle wisdom, Ollie shows Luna that the dark isn't something to fear. He explains that the night is actually a quiet blanket where flowers dream and rivers rest. Most importantly, he teaches Luna a secret: Without the dark, no one would ever see how brightly she can shine.
Why parents and children will love this book:
Conquers Nighttime Fears: Helps children reframe the scary dark as a cozy, peaceful time for rest.
Encourages Bravery: Kids will cheer for Luna as she finally takes a deep breath and steps out from behind her cloud.
