He can't get tosleep; he's scared of the darkness that makes his imagination run wild, and he suspects the shadows concealterrifying creatures who are sneaking up on his bed, or hiding behind the drapes in his room. Every sound in thedark is a new peril. But what is actually making the noises in the night

The Night of the Noises and TheNoises of the Night are two versions of the same story, brought together in an original, entertaining book that willhelp children to overcome their fear of the dark, relax and drift off to sleep.

Reviews
