Learn about the differences between night and day and the very big God who watches over everything in Niko’s Night and Day by Colleen Oaks (illustrated by Erin Chan). Unique and beautiful artistic illustrations fill the story of a small boy trying to find his lost train in the woods. As he walks, he notices all the differences from daytime and reflects that God is always with him. This would be a wonderful bedtime story for littles who love to explore. You may want to note that the premise of the story involves Niko leaving his house in the middle of the night to venture into the woods by himself, where he is mesmerized by all the beauty of nighttime. There is no mention of parents or safety, so you may want to add this discussion point into story time to discourage any little one who may be inspired by Niko’s experience. Hardcover, 32 pages.
