Peter's "magic" cap allows him and his father to journey together through imaginary, magical experiences. The cap enables Peter to not only be a "normal" boy for a short period of time, but an "enchanted" boy, special and without comparison. Peter discovers through his journeys and inner strength, imagination, and joy that will fuel his road to health.
Ultimately, however, the story is not about Peter alone, but is equally about his relationship with his father and their love and need for one another. So many children's books are about children who seem abandoned and left to face tough issues and circumstances all alone. "Peter and His Magic Bedtime Cap" is a story that demonstrates how vital and unique the love and support of family and friends is to one's own process towards growth, health, and life. I know that to be true in my own journey towards hope and recovery.
