George and His Nighttime Friends

For some children, bedtime is about relaxation, but others find that they are unable to turn off their brains and drift off to dreamland. When the lights turn off, George becomes fearful of the dark and what could be lurking in the shadows. In the quiet darkness of the evening, George calls out for a nighttime friend to help ease his worries. He is greeted by a sweet and hospitable mouse who shows him that nighttime can be full of enchantment and wonder. A mole helps George escape into the illustrative world of books. George then helps a hyper-focused rabbit and fearful penguin learn to let go of their fears and focus on the present by taking a relaxing bath. Next, he finds a perky panda to play a game with, and he shares a late night feast with a hungry pig.
