I really love the way it was narrated, the narrator definitely captured the fun loving feel that the short stories were supposed to carry. I also love with the stories have helpful morals snuck in here and there to learn for little kids. I feel like that’s really important for kids. So grateful for this book definitely one that I get to share with my son every night before bed. And very impressed With the quality of writing!

Short, innocent, fun, SWEET!

I didn’t expect my son to love it as much as he does. Every evening he picks one story, climbs into bed, and asks for the “magic voices.” It’s helped us shift from TV before bed to something calmer and much more enriching. The stories are just the right length—not too long, not too short. Some even have fun little lessons that get him thinking. It’s been a win for both of us—less screen time and better sleep. Highly recommend if your bedtime routine needs a little love.

Listened to this during bedtime with my little cousin and it was a total hit. The stories are the perfect length—not too long, not too short—and each one has a fun little twist or gentle lesson. Some made us giggle, others were sweet and relaxing, which really helped settle things down for the night. The narrator’s voice is soft and comforting, which sets the perfect sleepytime mood. If you’ve got kiddos in that 4-8 age range, this one’s a great pick for winding down together

This audiobook has quickly become our favorite part of bedtime! I listened to it with my 7-year-old son, and he’s completely hooked. Every night, he actually looks forward to getting into bed so we can hear the next magical adventure — and let me tell you, that’s a big win in our house! Bedtime is always a chore - not anymore!! The stories are the perfect length for winding down, and I love that as an audiobook he can fully use his imagination (he's been acting out the dragon stories during the day!). It’s been such a sweet bonding moment for us, and I even find myself getting drawn into the tales. Whether it’s unicorns, dinosaurs, or brave little heroes, there’s something for every kid to love. Highly recommend for any parent who wants a smoother, more magical bedtime routine!

After weeks of my five and seven-year-old's elaborate bedtime delay tactics, I downloaded this audiobook in desperation. The transformation was immediate and almost magical!
They now race to brush their teeth to listen to "just one more story." The story's perfect length keeps them engaged without dragging on too long. What I appreciate most is how the stories spark their imagination—they often whisper their own versions to each other the next morning.
The narrator's soothing voice has them completely relaxed within minutes. This is the best purchase for our evening routine in years!

From the very start of listening, I fell in love with the narrator. Joanne did an amazing job bringing each story to life using sounds, different voices, and even a bit of singing. It got me into each story and I couldn't stop listening. Each story is short enough for a bedtime story and each one is full of imagination, heroism, adventure, entertainment, and important lessons. If you are looking for new unique bedtime stories for your children, this is a book you don't want to miss!

Don't miss this!
