    Publisher’s Synopsis: Sometimes shadows can look a bit scary, but if you take a closer look, you will see that they are actually quite silly.

    While reading this book, your kiddo will see that shadows aren’t always what they seem. What looks to be monsters turn into little silly snakes, smart-looking sharks, and sleeping kittens. This book can be read or even sang with your littles at bedtime. There is even a diagram of how to make shadow puppets is in the back of the book for further exploration and imagination. This is a fun book that brings parents and children together at night with a fun sing-songy tune and some shadow puppets.

      I love this bedtime story, it’s perfect for my Grandson. He still gets scared at shadows and hopefully, this will resolve that. What a great idea for a book.

      Bed time stories are great because they help kids relax and get ready for bed. They can also help expand their vocabulary.

      Bed time stories are a great way to wind down before bed. My girls love being read to. It’s educational, imaginative, and very important to read or be read to. Thanks for this chance.

      I think that bedtime stories are so great because it’s a very comforting ritual. Children learn to read but also enjoy the comfort of being read to by an adult.
