Sweet dreams, sleep tight, hope the Night Bear comes tonight... After dark, the Night Bear goes on the hunt for his favourite snack: delicious nightmares.

Prize-winning husband and wife team Ana and Thiago de Moraes present The Night Bear: the perfect bedtime story.

The Night Bear loves nothing more than to munch on a good nightmare or two, but what happens when he accidentally chomps down on a dream?
