This book ought to cure most kids of their fear of darkness. :-)

Besides, the creative representation of darkness, the book depicts darkness quite creatively too. He comes with a glossy touch! :-)

Excerpt

And pretty soon, around the room, they danced the FUNKY TWIST!

And after all that dancing round they had a little break.

They sipped a cup of lemonade and nibbled on some cake.
