About this listen

Add variety to your child's bedtime routine with this book from the author of The Rabbit Who Wants to Fall Asleep, the global bestseller that parents have been raving about! Features all-new child-tested, parent-approved techniques to reclaim bedtime and provide a sweet and tender end to each day.

Your child joins Ellen the Elephant on a journey through a magical forest that leads to sleep. Along the way, children meet different fantastical characters and have calming experiences that will help your child to relax and slip into slumber quickly. The story works perfectly for either naptime or bedtime.

Children will love switching between stories about both Roger the Rabbit (The Rabbit Who Wants to Fall Asleep) and Ellen the Elephant (The Little Elephant Who Wants to Fall Asleep), and parents will appreciate the diverse ways each character will help their loved ones fall asleep quickly and easily.

This soothing audiobook edition contains a choice of male or female narrator.

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?

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.

So hypnotic! The kids fell right to sleep!

Relaxing and calming narration to promote and induce sleep. It has desired efficacy in promoting sleep, more me a 72yo active woman with chronic insomiac 😅🤣😂, my Doc says whatever works! I highly recommend for kids and adults.

'Litte Elephant Who Wants To Fall Asleep' An excellent sleep guidance story
