Challenging or frightening strories before going to sleep do not encourage a deep, trouble free sleep. The story is intended to calm the children and make them feel safe from the time they go to bed until they are awake and are with their parents again. The repetition of Hummmmmmmmmm on each page is meant to assist parents in bringing the child to a state of drowsiness that will induce an irresistible urge to sleep. The Big Red Ball allows them to float safely above everything while interacting with friends and visiting interesting places. Prayers and Mantras have been used throughout history to calm and reassure people, and this story is intended to do the same for small children.

This is a heartwarming tale about a curious little girl and her imaginary best friend, the Man in the Moon. When it is bedtime, the little girl dreams that she and her best friend are astronauts, pirates, explorers, adventurers, swashbucklers, inventors, magic-makers, and time travelers. Their travels and adventures are inspired by history, mythology, literature, adventure, imagination, curiosity and creativity. Deep, lush, textured watercolors with warm undertones and inviting characters accompany this quaint tale for young readers to enjoy and for adults to return to their youth. The story and images are meant to inspire curiosity, invoke thought and questions about the world around them, and to allow parent and child to engage in their own quests and imaginings of far-off times and far-away places. There is no lesson preached, just the sheer joy of allowing the readers to identify with the characters, to find themselves within the story and to learn for themselves that there is no boundary for an inquisitive and imaginative mind. Ultimately, this provides an opportunity to read together at bedtime and share precious quality time together.

If you close your eyes and listen to the wind whisper in the trees or stand quietly when the snow is falling softly all around you, it is possible that you may become aware of small things that you have not noticed before. Perhaps your imagination will capture the image of a little golden-haired fairy, only two inches tall, who lives in a beautiful forest. Could it be that the flutter in a nearby tree that you thought at first was just a leaf shaking in the wind, could have been the little fairy? Her wings are gossamer clear - she would not be easy to see. Nature has many wonders and forests have secrets. The little golden-haired fairy spends her days among the trees, flowers, and creatures of a beautiful forest. Once each year, the forest fairies gather in the middle of a frozen lake for a festival that lasts for days. Each fairy builds a small house of tiny packed snow bricks as a shelter. They also build a larger ice house, called a "Rainbow Igloo" that holds a special secret. The little golden-haired fairy's friends are lightening bugs, a mouse, a bear, and eventually a shorttail weasel. Hers is the heart of hope and love that sends a message of friendship into all the world. This simply illustrated, charming little story will very likely bring brightness to your day, a smile to your face and hope into your heart.
