The dragon in the closet

I read a story this past week about a little girl who told her Mother that she didn't like to sleep by herself because there was a dragon in her closet.  She said that every time she went to sleep the dragon came out, so she couldn't go to sleep.

The Mother told her little girl..."oh don't worry.  I have the perfect thing to give you to kill the dragon.  Every time you wake up you just point this at the closet, turn it on, and immediately the dragon will go away!"  Then, she handed the little girl a flashlight.

The next morning, the little girl was ecstatic!  She ran into the kitchen exclaiming, "It worked, it worked!  Every time that dragon woke me up, I was able to make him go away!"

Dragons will always run away from the light.
