Description
Jack is scared of the dark and while trying to get to sleep, he hears odd noises. It's a group of animals who have noticed he seems scared and want to show him why they think the night is the best part of the day. They take him outside on an adventure where he learns all about nocturnal animals and show him that the dark is nothing to be scared of.
