Edward was a six-year-old boy. He was scared of the dark. Recently his parents shifted him to a new room. It was his first night in his new room. He was trying to sleep, but he felt scared. Suddenly, he heard a scratching noise near his window. He started trembling in his bed. His mother had given him a candle to use in the dark. He lit it up and started murmuring, “Who is there?” But it was a windy night. The wind soon blew out the candle. Edward was scared but then he thought that he should face the situation bravely. He saw a creaking oak-tree branch near the window. ‘Oh! So this is the noisemaker!’ he chuckled. He felt relaxed and hopped into his bed again. He was happy, as he bravely faced the situation alone. He did not call for help and overcame his weakness.
