Need a fear of the dark and/or shadows book

My 3.5 yr old DD has had sleep disturbances for a few months now and just started telling us she's afraid of the shadows in her room. The shadows are caused by the nightlights we need to keep on because of her original fear of the dark. Anyone find a helpful book for this age? Thanks!

    I don't know about a book but my son also has darkness fears (robots come when it's dark, apparently) and when I asked him what would help he told me to leave his light on all night.  So we do.  It does help.  He used to come in our room every night but since we started that he still comes in but much later (I don't mind him coming in at all but he was acting like it was a big PITA for him to leave his bed lol).

  • I bought DD a doll called Night Guardian. It lights up and has two colored night lights. The doll (it's actually a fox) has sayings like "w e're safe!" DD loves it and after sleeping with it about a month, she tells me she's not afraid of the dark.
