Hardback. Condición: Good. Key Selling Points This is a bedtime book that focuses on how wild and active nighttime can be. This story celebrates some of the scariest parts of night for young children: darkness and the sounds of wind and rain.

There is not enough food or water, and even the children are forced to do hard labor.

But then Gwen learns that Miss E. is not as full of answers as she seems, and she realizes that in order to protect a friend, she will have to do something that could never be considered a good turn.…
