About This Book
Reach for Mr Moonlight when your child begins to express anxiety about the bumps, scratches, and shadows that emerge after the lights go out. This book is a perfect tool for shifting a child's perspective from fear of the unknown to scientific curiosity and empathy for the natural world. It gently validates the initial feeling of being 'spooked' while providing a roadmap for how to investigate those feelings through observation and patience. The story follows young Tom as he hears mysterious noises beneath his house. Instead of hiding under the covers, he embarks on a mission to discover the source of the sound. This short chapter book is ideal for early readers (ages 6 to 9) who are transitioning to longer narratives. It balances a light mystery with a heartwarming lesson on how humans and animals share spaces, making it an excellent choice for building confidence both in reading and in navigating nighttime fears.
