Moon Bear

Moon Bear is an uplifting wordless book about a little girl called Ettie who learns that bedtime isn’t so scary and that nighttime can be beautiful.Ettie is afraid of the dark. Every night without fail her Mummy calls, ‘Time for bed, Ettie!’ The curtains pull shut, her bedside light blinks out and Ettie is surrounded by the deep inky cloak of the dark…
… Until one night, the bright moon shines through a crack in her curtains. Cautiously, Ettie reaches out a hand to touch the light and is surprised to find that it leaves a glittering mark on her hands. Overcome with curiosity and joy, Ettie dances around her room, drawing with this magical beam of moonlight. She pulls open her curtains and begins to connect the stars in the sky as if they were dots. A moon bear slowly appears in the sky, and when she connects the very last dot, he bursts into life, standing in Ettie’s very own bedroom.
The bear and Ettie begin to play and explore Ettie’s room. But when Ettie switches on her torch, the bear hides away in fear. Together, Ettie and the moon bear help each other face their fears. One is afraid of the dark and the other is afraid of the light.
