About the Book
What’s True? At Bedtime is a charming story of a little girl named Zorah who is afraid of the dark, but with the loving support of her Mommy, she comes to find out what’s true about her fears.
This story is for children with big imaginations who wrestle with fears of the dark. Through the story, the reader learns that fear is normal, and how by sharing their fears with a trusted caregiver and shifting focus on what’s true, they too can learn to sleep confidently at night.
“My little ones struggled at bedtime. The idea of being alone at night kept them up for hours every night. We tried: staying in the room with them until they fell asleep, leaving the bathroom and closet lights on, and purchasing a plethora of musical nightlight toys; but none of these temporary fixes helped them navigate their very real fears of the dark. That’s when I realized we needed a different approach— what would happen if we equipped them with truth and encouraged them to explore those fears? What’s True? At Bedtime is based on our family’s actual experiences and includes the very words and tools that worked wonders for our kids: it increased their confidence and reduced their anxieties at bedtime, which ultimately led to them conquering their fears of the dark! My desire is for my book to empower kids and families around the world to rest, assured.”
