A Note From the Author
This was actually a nightmare I had as a child. I shared this story with my own children when they were young and had a nightmare. Occasionally, a student has shared they had a nightmare and were having a difficult day. After discussing with my students that I have also had nightmares, I told this story to my class. We talked about how powerful our mind and our thoughts are and how we can use that power to stop having the nightmare. They reported the technique worked, and they were able to sleep. A well rested student can focus better in an academic environment and optimize their learning. Now my story is in print and available to help anyone suffering from a nightmare.
Other teachers have shared The Nightmare with their students.
I just read your nightmare book to my students last week. One of my students had a bad dream so it was perfect and helped a lot. - Michelle Breitkreutz
