A Nighttime Journey Poor little Platypup is frightened of the dark. What is that shadow? Who made that noise?

But there's nothing to fear. With his mother by his side, the little platypus ventures out of his burrow to explore. The moonlight dances on the water. Leaves whisper and gumnuts knock in the wind.

Platypup discovers that his home by the river is just as lovely in the dark of night as it is during the day! And that's not scary at all.

Growing with Platypup Featuring author-illustrator Renee Treml's comforting storytelling and delicate illustrations of Australian native animals, this book is a significant stepping stone in your child's reading journey. For young readers who have relished Renee's board books,

Sleep Tight, Platypup offers a natural progression into picture books and delves into deeper themes like confronting fears and exploring senses

What Your Child Will Discover
* Courage & Bravery- Overcome the common fear of the dark.
* Sensory Awareness- Explore the world through different senses.
* Emotional Intelligence- Talk through anxieties in a constructive way.
