About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is hovering on the edge of a big milestone like using the bathroom at night or navigating the house without calling for help. It perfectly captures the internal monologue of a child balancing the desire to be a big kid with the very real intimidation of shadows and silence. The story follows Josie as she makes the solo trek from her bed to the bathroom, turning a mundane task into an epic journey of bravery. It is an ideal choice for preschoolers and kindergartners who are working through nighttime fears. By validating that the hallway can look different in the dark, the book helps children find their own inner strength. It celebrates the quiet pride of personal achievement and helps normalize the transition from needing a parent's hand to trusting one's own feet.
