A humourous and courageous journey from dusk to dawn. Opening with lulling night sounds and concluding with the next morning's conquered fears, this three-movement work includes a suspenseful ghost story full of special effects. Originally written with and for elementary school students, this three-movement musing on fear and imagination is full of delight.
