Once upon a time, in a grand castle, there lived a little prince named Shaun. Every night, when his mommy tucked him in, Shaun struggled to fall asleep. The darkness scared him, and he couldn't help but imagine all sorts of spooky things. He wanted to be brave and sleep peacefully, but the shadows seemed too scary. Shaun whispered to himself, - I want to be brave like the knights in stories.
Tonight, Shaun tried to sleep again, but the shadows danced around his room. He clutched his blanket tightly, hoping the fear would go away. His mommy came in, seeing his worried face. - What's wrong, my little prince? she asked softly. Shaun replied, - It's the shadows, Mommy. They're too scary.
Shaun's mommy told him that shadows couldn't hurt him, but he still felt scared. That night, he tried counting sheep, but it didn't help. He even imagined being a brave knight, yet the shadows seemed even bigger. Shaun sighed, feeling like he would never be able to sleep. - I just can't do it, he thought sadly.
Feeling defeated, Shaun decided he would never be brave enough. He wanted to run to his mommy's room again, but he paused. - Maybe I'm just too little to be brave, he whispered to himself. But deep down, he wished he could find a way to not be afraid anymore.
Shaun's mommy returned, seeing her son's struggle. - Do you know, even mommies get scared sometimes? she said with a smile. Shaun looked up in surprise. - Really? he asked. His mommy nodded, explaining how she takes deep breaths and thinks of happy things when she's scared. Shaun listened intently, feeling a spark of hope.
That night, Shaun decided to try what his mommy suggested. He took deep breaths, in and out, just like she showed him. Then, he thought about his favorite stories and happy moments. Slowly, the shadows didn't seem so scary anymore. - I'm doing it! Shaun whispered excitedly. He finally drifted off to a peaceful sleep, feeling proud of his courage.
