Is your child is afraid of the dark -- and afraid to sleep in his or her own bed? If so, Uncle Lightfoot, Flip That Switch, may be just the book to help turn nighttime fears and tears into nighttime fun!
Michael is afraid at night (e.g., darkness, monsters, noises, burglars, sleeping alone, nightmares). His friend, Jerome, calls him a “scaredy cat.” Uncle Lightfoot, a modern-day Creek Indian, is a retired teacher who knows games that can help overcome fear. Michael’s parents, his brother, Tim, a young blind neighbor, Little Otter and even the farm dog, Lady, are willing to help Michael play the games! During the process of overcoming his fear, Michael also learns to create shadow animals, ride a horse, track animals, calm a goat, and rescue the dog from a cereal box attack!
