About this listen

Film and TV star Keke Palmer tenderly shares the Ojibwe folk tale of the first dreamcatcher and shows how its message of our connection to the natural world persists to this day.

Bedtime stories are narrated by the world’s most celebrated voices and written with no beginning, middle, or end so you don’t stay up to hear what happens next. They're interesting enough to give your mind something to focus on, but delivered in a way that encourages sleep.

This title is part of The Audible Sleep Collection, exclusive audio experiences created to help you fall asleep, stay asleep, and wake up in the right morning mindset. New and free for members.

Origin of the "Dream Catcher"

Loved hearing how this native American legend may have begun. The story was very detailed, to help the reader imagine it. The super quiet whispering voice of the narrator, was hard to hear. Not all parts of this story needed whispering.
