Woofie and His Boy: Brave in the Night

By J. d. Hills

Woofie and His Boy: Brave in the Night is a gentle bedtime story for children ages 3-5 about facing fears of the dark, calming nighttime worries, and learning what it truly means to be brave.

Woofie may be a small, cuddly black-and-tan toy puppy, but when his boy feels scared at bedtime, Woofie is ready to help. Strange shadows stretch across the wall, the hallway creaks, and worries about bad dreams begin to grow.

With Woofie by his side, the boy learns to look closely, take slow breaths, talk about what scares him, and discover that bravery does not mean never feeling afraid. It means finding the courage to keep going, even when fear is near.

Written in warm, easy-to-follow rhymes and paired with soft watercolor-style illustrations, this comforting picture book is perfect for bedtime reading, preschool classrooms, and families helping young children with fear of the dark, nightmares, anxiety at bedtime, and emotional growth.
