    About this ebook

    The night is full of scary things. Nothing looks the same. Nothing sounds the same. The wind blows and the light makes shadows that come alive.
    See how one boy keeps his teddy safe from the scary things of the night.

    A picture book to read to young children. The simple repetitive nature of the text and bright colourful illustrations make it easy for beginning readers to read all by themselves.
