Provides comforting reassurance for a child experiencing nighttime fears and anxieties In this creative retelling of Psalm 23, a child imagines scary shadows chasing away her sleep and peace as she reaches out to God her Comforter. Gently and imaginatively written, this story about being afraid of the dark brings the psalmist's words into a new and relatable light for children. Backmatter includes background information about Psalm 23 and encouragement and practical tips for coping with fear and scary times.
