About this listen

When Jamie steps onto the Island of Lost Time, the noise of the outside world fades away. There are no ticking clocks, no endless deadlines—only the soft hush of waves and the wisdom of Evelyn, a guide who shows that time is not an enemy but a patient friend.

Through gentle lessons, Jamie learns to slow down, to savor details, and to discover treasures hidden in ordinary moments. From the whisper of leaves to the stillness of a starry sky, the island reveals that mindfulness transforms how we see life.

The Island of Lost Time is a reflective children’s story and timeless parable. It teaches young listeners the value of presence and offers adults a reminder that slowing down brings peace. Perfect for bedtime listening, family reflection, and classroom discussions.

Perfect for:

Listen-aloud: Ages 4–8

Independent listening: Ages 7–10

Older children & adults: A thoughtful fable about mindfulness, stillness, and the courage to live in the moment.
