Hopefully this works over and over again. Tonight (1st run through) my manic son was passed out in 12 mins. Great result. PS anyone want to adopt a 3, almost 4 year old?

So hypnotic! The kids fell right to sleep!

We have an 8yr old, 6yr old and 3yr old.
It takes a long time to get our older children settled. We played this book tonight over the Bluetooth speaker and by the end of it, they were ALL in a DEEP SLEEP!

Amazing! Highly recommend it! We’ll be buying all the other stories in this series.
