Hardback cover under dustjacket

Luna is afraid of the inky night that creeps under her door and around her bed — until Mama suggests it might make Luna feel better if she says her fears out loud. The last thing Luna expects is for the Night to reply…

Night wants to show Luna there is nothing to be afraid of, so together they play in the darkness. Luna paints the twilight sky in shimmering shades of blue and purple and dances among the stars in a sparkling dress that gleams like moonbeams. As Luna gets to know the Night, she realises that her fear has become her friend.
