My View:
This is an adorable book, beautifully illustrated with a message/lesson for all written between the covers.
Fear- of the dark – seems to be a universal challenge that most young children face at some point in their lives, in this narrative Agatha learns to face her fears by turning her fearful thoughts into a positive experience - Agatha is encouraged to draw something from her imagination… (No spoilers here) This is a very creative and positive way to tackle young children’s fears, a great example for parents and caregivers to have in their toolbox of parenting tricks. And the illustrations are gorgeous!

Quirky, cute Agatha is back and this time dealing with an age old fear of the dark. Goaded by her phobia and a not-so-kind fellow kinder member, Agatha eventually learns to harness her imagination, learning to conquer it and find solace in the unknown instead of fear. A classic tale reinvigorated by Pignataro's charming illustrations and unique pig / bear family characters.
