Lumi The Gentle Good Night- Lumi and the Sleepy Paper Moon

A gentle bilingual bedtime story about feeling safe when the dark feels big.

When tiny Lumi sees dark little spaces in the sleepy reef, her heart feels small. Then a soft paper moon floats down with tiny cutout holes, like gentle papel picado. Lumi soon discovers that little holes are not broken places-they can let soft light in.

Through simple English and Spanish text, this calming picture book helps toddlers notice one small idea before bedtime: the dark can stay soft, and a little light can stay close.
