Synopsis

Magnus loves pretending to be a brave knight. But when he's asleep, he has nightmares that the Shadowman is coming to steal his knight's hat and sword. Then Grandma gives him a toy lion. At night the lion is huge and real and fierce. Can Magnus and his Night Lion chase away his nightmares together. In this moving story about overcoming your fears, acclaimed German illustrator Sanne Dufft beautifully captures the power of a child's imagination and the comfort of a cuddly friend. This gentle story is an ideal antidote to childhood nightmares.
