a bedtime storybook you make together
Bedtime is a little boat
on a very big sea.
Little stories your child helps make. You read, they touch the page to add a star, a shell, a lantern of their own. Each story reads itself aloud in a soft voice, and you can gently change the tale as you go. On any screen, even with no signal.

The shelf
Five little stories, each one you finish together. No two readings look the same, the page keeps whatever your little one adds.
Made to be touched, not just watched.
A screen a small child can actually do something with. Nothing to win, nothing to get wrong, and it winds down instead of winding up.
Every scene is cut from paper and lit low,
drawn right in the browser so it opens in a blink and keeps working on a plane, in the car, or anywhere the signal drops. Yours to hold close at the end of the day.
You read, or it reads to you
Do the voices yourself, or tap the words and a soft, slow voice reads them aloud, with gentle little sounds you can turn off any time.
They add to every page
A small hand reaches in and touches the picture to hang a star, gather a shell, light a lantern. It always works, and it always looks lovely.
Change the story, in your voice
Record your voice once, then make it about a bunny, tuck in your little one's name, or make it shorter and sleepier. Every word still sounds like you.
Make a wish.
Draw a star for the fox to sail by. Click, or let a little one touch. This is the whole game, and it is on every single page.
Start tonight.
The first story is free, all the way through. Leave an email and the rest of the shelf opens, and you can keep any page you make together as a little picture to print. We write twice a year, when there is a new story. Never otherwise.
