Have you ever had great big tingly goosebumps? Or tossed and turned too long on a sleepless night? Have you ever seen tall shadows dance in your doorway? Or found a RELAX-let-go peace deep inside? In Night of Mysterious Blessings, you’ll share in the adventures of a boy and his beloved dog. Enter this curious, oh-so-mysterious night, and be amazed at what you see in the morning’s light. Best of all, uncover the priceless key to worrying less and smiling more.
So many books stress God is always with us. How fantastic for a book to proclaim the Scriptural truth that God is also within. It’s a lifelong gift for children to discover God makes his home inside them while their hearts are open to receive the mystery.

Night of Mysterious Blessings Review:
What I liked about this book is how anyone, whether young or old, can relate to it. We all have sleepless nights worrying about what the next day will bring. There would be situations we would worry about facing, and our mind conjures all the “what-if” scenarios. The author beautifully conveys that as long as you believe in God and trust, He will be by your side, and your mind will find peace.
I enjoyed how the author narrated the story in a rhyme that would capture the young reader’s attention. The illustrations by Courtney Smith also brighten the picture book. Considering the tale takes place at night, I enjoyed how colorful the illustrator made it. My favorite ones were when the boy meets the Sandman or plays with Old Paws. The Sandman looks adorable and would put a smile on the reader’s face.
Moreover, even though this book targets Christian families, anyone from any background would appreciate its value if they believed in a higher power. Overall, “Night of Mysterious Blessings” is a beautiful children’s fiction novel that you can read multiple times whenever you feel anxious and cannot sleep, and the story will give you peace of mind.
