Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark

Nicholas Lewis

Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark is the winner in the children’s book category at the Southeast Book Festival for 2026. In the book a young child expresses their fear of the dark as bedtime approaches and their imagination begins to run wild. Ultimately, they find comfort in their familiar surroundings and begin to calm down, ready to sleep. It’s a perfect read to help young ones prepare for bed.
