Seven-year-old Leo is afraid of the dark, keeping his room brightly lit every night to chase away the shadows. But when a tiny, winged Night-Sprite named Pip tumbles into his room with an empty, broken lantern, Leo learns that the dark isn’t scary at all—it’s simply a quiet blanket for the world to rest beneath. Together, they step through a magical portal in Leo’s closet to journey across the Midnight Realm. They must gather an Ember of Courage, a drop of Moon-Dew, and a Starlight Crystal to relight Pip’s lantern before dawn. Along the way, Leo discovers the gentle magic of the night and learns how to finally fall into a brave, peaceful sleep.
