The child in this book is not fond of the raging storm, especially as the day turns to night. Saying the Bedtime Shema is a Jewish nighttime ritual that can help children (and adults) feel safe and comforted. It includes the Shema, the classic Jewish prayer about God's oneness, along with sections from the Biblical book of Psalms that ask for God's protection and care through the night and always. What a peaceful way to drift off, whether skies are stormy or crystal clear.
