A little monster has had a terribly bad dream. He is scared it will come true the next day. He tells his mother all about it. She listens empathetically, and then tells the little monster a new story about all the lovely things that could happen instead.
In the end, the little monster joins in with his mother’s story. He goes to bed looking forward to the next day.
This book has lovely illustrations and a soothing tone. It could be used to open up discussions about worries and how we can calm ourselves by thinking positively.
