Shadows in My Room & What's That Noise?

Bedtime Stories

By: Linda Weaver Clarke

Narrated by: Heidi Allred

In each of these stories, a mother helps her little girl understand her fears at night.

"Shadows in My Room": Kayla sees shadows in her room that disturb her. Her mother answers all her questions about each shadow that she points to and helps her to calm down and go to sleep.

"What's That Noise?": Amber hears noises that disturb her, such as the wind and thunder. Her mother teaches Amber to use her imagination by turning something fearful into something fun.

Cute stories for little ones.

These short children stories were really cute and they are a fun way to explain shadows and noises. If you have little ones I think you will enjoy listening to the with your kids.

Great bedtime story

This was a wonderful audiobook for children about using their imagination to calm their fears. There were two stories. In each the parent teaches the child to use her imagination to help explain away her fears.
This audiobook was well produced. The narrator had a soothing voice and told the story in a way that would make any child relax before bedtime. The pace was perfect and unrushed. There were also sound effects to enhance the production.
As an adult I enjoyed listening to this book so I think that children will love it. In particular I think it is good for younger children who are apprehensive about shadows and noises before bed. It is definitely a book that will help to calm their fears.

I would like to thank the author/narrator/publisher for gifting me a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are unbiased and my own.

Perfect for young children

Such a lovely group of short stories for bedtime. The narrator has a soothing voice that will help calm the nightimefears of our young

Bedtime Stories

I listened to this on my iPod using the audible version.
I love the idea of audio books for children, especially for bedtime! This one is perfect. I can picture a mother and child laying on the bed together listening together. My own daughter is 28 and no grandchildren on the way... yet, so I have to imagine (hint hint).

A lot of children are afraid of the dark, afraid of noises and shadows in the dark. This book is a real nice way of dealing with it together.
These are very quick and easy to understand, so great for the very young.

Also - surprisingly, I really liked the reader! This doesn't happen often. I thought the reader did a great job, especially the children's voices!

Altogether - very enjoyable. Perfect for young kids and parents (or grandparents). I can't wait to listen to this with my own future grandchildren.

Thank you Linda Weaver Clarke for send me this audio for my honest review.

Sweet Stories for Children

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Yes, I think that my cousins with young children would enjoy and appreciate it.

If you’ve listened to books by Linda Weaver Clarke before, how does this one compare?

I actually haven't, this was my first. I liked it.

Which character – as performed by Heidi Allred – was your favorite?

My favorite character was Kayla. I loved her voice.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Sure, I think that it would be a cute children's movie.

Any additional comments?

Cute, sweet read. It fell a little bit too much into gender stereotypes and the stereotypical family unit for me but that's just my opinion. Good read for children who are afraid for one reason or another to go to sleep at night. Narration was very good.
