About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is grappling with nighttime fears or feeling small in a big world. It is the perfect tool for a child who needs to transform 'scary' things into manageable play through the power of their own imagination. Mercer Mayer's classic tale follows a young boy who dreams of a medieval world where he is a brave squire facing dragons and a giant, grumpy troll. The story emphasizes that while monsters may seem big and loud, a child's creativity and wit are even more powerful. It is an excellent choice for building self-confidence and helping preschoolers navigate the transition from being a 'little kid' to a 'big kid' who can handle their own adventures.
