Each tale is 15 minutes long, so you can put your audiobook sleep timer on with no need to return to the screen.

fabulous book

I am often babysitting my four year old twin granddaughters and have never managed to listen to the end of one of the short stories before they are both asleep.

Amazing, I cannot recommend it enough.

My little one never makes it to the end of a story, he’s out for the count before then - every time!
Whatever the magic is, this audible book works so well at calming and helping my little one sleep, even when overtired.

I don’t want to jinx it because it works. It really does. Soothing and relaxing for my children, even sleeping straight through, my 4 yr old and 6 year old cannot fight it!!!

Absolutely fantastic!!

This is perfect for my 1 year old daughter even though I read to her she takes time to settle down but this really calms her enough to send her to sleep without a fuss. Totally in love with the narrators voice it’s even relaxing for me too!

Amazing!!!

This is like a miracle, my kids sleeps in few minutes. The stories are great but mainly the voice and tone of the reader.

Delightful

The stories are delightful for children, but they will not be annoying to adults either. The sound effects are great, the narration is soothing, and I really enjoy listening to these with my child.

so good I don't remember it 😂

I always fall asleep before the story ends. I especially like Sky Magic, the third story.
