About This Book
Reach for this book when your child seems to live in a world of their own making, or when you notice them performing small, mysterious acts of kindness for imaginary friends. It is the perfect choice for a sensitive child who feels misunderstood by more pragmatic siblings or adults who prioritize logic over wonder. This story validates the inner life of the dreamer by showing that belief in the unseen is a form of empathy. The story follows young Tobias, who is preparing for Christmas. While his parents and older brother are busy with traditional preparations and dismissing the existence of monsters, Tobias remains steadfast in his belief that a monster lives in a cave nearby. Instead of fearing the unknown, he spends his time finding the perfect gift for his hidden friend. It is a quiet, gentle narrative that bridges the gap between the holiday spirit of giving and the boundless imagination of early childhood.
