Publisher's summary

As a child growing up in a family of cantadoras (keepers of the old stories) Clarissa Pinkola Estes learned first hand how a story told at bedtime can soothe away the troubles of the day and prepare the way for another night's dreams to follow.

Now a beloved cantadora herself, Estes shares this treasured family tradition with you on Bedtime Stories, her own special collection of tales to relax and ease you to sleep.

Nice for an evening

Enjoyed this for an evening, but unsure if I'd listen to the same stories over again. Nice for one night.

So far, so good. I've listened 3 times and

I've fallen asleep each time, but at different parts. Her voice is gentle, the music is soft and beautiful and the stories a little different than what I heard as a child.

Exceptional

I'm new this author, but I was impressed enough to buy her other works as well. This audio book is very soothing, and lush with visuals. The evenings when I listen to it I find I dream deeper and more vividly.

Ever awesome

I adore Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes. My only problem with this audiobook, is that the account of the C.S. Lewis's " Narnia", is incorrect. The entire " Spare Room" , in which the wardrobe resides, is corrupted.

childhood happiness

my mom first ayed this recording for me when I was 4 (19 now) and it helps me sleep when I have really bad anxiety. I'm serious, I rarely make it halfway through, and if I make it farther it's only by a few lines.
