Rolling Into Bed

For those of us who are afraid we don't have what it takes to face our fears on our own, this story reminds us we have the skills and power to do so no matter how big and scary the problem, or monster, is.

Most people think martial arts are for self-defense. While this is true, the art of Jiu-Jitsu also teaches us to have respect for ourselves and others. With this mutual respect, we can, through our actions, learn from one another.

"Rolling into Bed" is a charming children's book that transforms bedtime fears into a delightful adventure with Dad. When a child hears strange noises and fears monsters under the bed, Dad comes to the rescue, revealing that these monsters are harmless and can be easily subdued. The twist? Dad uses Jiu-Jitsu moves to help his child conquer each imaginary monster, from werewolves and vampires to yetis and aliens.

Through playful rhymes and engaging illustrations, the book not only provides a whimsical way to address bedtime fears but also introduces basic Jiu-Jitsu concepts to young readers. Each monster encounter becomes an opportunity for the child to learn a different Jiu-Jitsu move, turning fear into empowerment. The heartwarming conclusion emphasizes the importance of respect and sharing bedtime routines, creating a sense of teamwork between the child and the imaginary monsters.

"Rolling into Bed" is not just a bedtime story; it's a delightful exploration of courage, creativity, and the power of imagination, making it a perfect addition to any child's bookshelf.
