Kit and the Wide, Wide Night

A Calming Bedtime Picture Book for Toddlers and Preschoolers

by Arthur Moon

Is your little one too restless to settle down at bedtime?

Kit and the Wide, Wide Night is a soothing, beautifully illustrated bedtime picture book designed to calm busy minds and make the night feel warm and safe.

Kit, a tiny meadow mouse, wants to sleep in his grass hollow, but the night sky feels much too big and open. With the help of his gentle cloud friend, Pip, Kit tries to build a cozy roof to shield himself from the stars. Through quiet discovery, soft rhyming rhythm, and peaceful meadow scenes, Kit learns that the vast night isn't scary—it's just a wide, gentle blanket holding sweet dreams.

Perfect for:
• Toddlers and preschoolers (Ages 3-6) who struggle with bedtime restlessness or fear of the dark
• Soothing nighttime anxiety and creating a calm evening routine
• Parents seeking a quiet, peaceful read-aloud story before sleep
• Building a collection with Book #1 (Pip’s Meadow Goodnights) in The Sleepytime Meadow Tales series
