A wholesome picture story book about the comfort of a parent who has the power to chase away their child's fears, and about the power of positive thinking. While the world has things that may frighten and overwhelm us, Hush learns to find hope in the world's light too. In this feel good bedtime story, Hush is helped to calm down and to face his fears with the things that make him happy, so that he can at last go to sleep. This story is perfect for children who feel like 'everything is wrong', who may feel unsettled by the realities of our world, and who may also be calmed by the goodness in it. As a teacher, I liked the idea of simple, fun stories that could engage readers from babies right up to adults. As an aunty, I liked the idea of easy, short reads to create a positive bedtime tone. As a friend and daughter, I loved the idea of books with symbolic messages that could suit as gifts to express gratitude or hope and support for others. And lastly, as a person who ranges from over-the-top stressed about the state of the world, to way too daydreamy to even see all the problems ... I needed a way to highlight all of the joy that gets us through. Family time, relaxation, and a positive way to help a child to feel calm or sleepy. Or a meaningful gift with a significant message for adults too. These books explore themes of friendship, kindness, gratitude, fun and seeing the positives in the world and people around us. There is a gift inside each story, for when you need to relax and want someone else to do the reading.
