God loves you even in the dark Racquel cannot get to sleep. Bad thoughts are waiting in the dark--and the Ugly Buglies, who sneak out at night to nibble on bare toes! Grandma Kathy doesn't know how to help, until an angel tells her in a dream, "Sometimes when people put their hands together to pray, they need something between them to hold onto." Inspired by this message, Grandma Kathy makes Racquel a very special gift, an angel doll that reminds her she's never truly alone. This gentle story of love is for every child who needs a bit of comfort in the night and every adult who wants to help. The soothing, perfect-for-bedtime text is accompanied by magical illustrations --strikingly detailed pen-and-ink drawings colored with lush pastel hues. Sleepy Angel's First Bedtime Story-- --embraces children of all faiths, ages 2 to 7 --is based on an inspiring true story, included in the book --comes in both hardcover and softcover editions --can stand alone, with or without a Sleepy Angel Doll
