About the Book

Billy Bunglebug is afraid to sleep at night in the dark. One night his Papa presents him with Magic Dreaming Stones, capable of holding "Boogies" at bay and clearing the mind for happy, even ridiculous thoughts instead. The polished magic rocks open Billy's mind to a series of fun adventures as he learns to embrace bedtime and set his imagination soaring. Written in perfectly metered rhyme, and just the right length for a satisfying bedtime read, children will hum along with the cadence of this joyful story, and maybe learn an important lesson along the way.

About the Author

Ken Marrs is a 40 year old husband and father of two children. He lives in Barrie, Ontario Canada. Ken wrote the Bunglebug series of stories while awaiting the birth of his first son in 1996. The decision to resurrect and publish the stories was made when two momentous events collided in 2004: The birth of his daughter and a Diagnosis of Multiple Myeloma, a terminal form of bone marrow cancer. These stories are Ken's legacy to his children, "to remember him by".
