Ning and the Night Spirits
Age 3+
Picture Books
A beautifully illustrated tale that shows no matter how small you feel, your actions can make help make big changes.
Ning has always heard tales of the night spirits that used to terrorise the little village where he lives. So, each night, he helps his parents light bright orange lanterns to frighten them away. Secretly, he wonders if they’re really as bad as everyone says – but is much too shy to ask anyone. But when Ning finds himself in the forest by night, he meets a creature who introduces him to the spirits’ secret world and he discovers that all is not as it seems.
A beautiful and magical story about confronting fears, confidence and a little boy who finds his voice.
