Your child's name is in it
Instead of “a little boy” or “a little girl”, the story uses your child's own name.
“…and Emma set off for home along the short road, the one that crosses the old bridge.”
Narrated versions coming soon
Bedtime stories for Emma
These are bedtime stories with your child's name in them. Your child also picks what happens next. We're working on narrated versions now. Until then, there's one you can read yourself, for free.
It works with any name: Emma, Noah, Mia, Leo and every other one.
How our stories work
Your child decides what happens
Every so often the story stops and asks what to do next. There are four endings, depending on the choices.
What happens next?
A narrated version is on the way
We're working on a version that's read aloud. Until it's ready, you do the reading.
“One more. Last one.”
It's half past nine. You've read the same book twice and they still want another story. You can barely keep your eyes open.
That's what the narrated stories are for. You press play, turn off the light and listen together.
We're not trying to replace reading together. This is just some help for the nights when you're worn out.

Questions
When will the narrated stories be out?
We don't have an exact date yet. If you join the list, we'll email you.
How much will it cost?
We haven't set a price yet. “The Bridge Toll” is free.
What age is it for?
Ages 3 to 7. “The Bridge Toll” has longer sentences, so it works better from about 5.
What happens to my child's name?
It stays on your phone. We don't save it or send it anywhere.
Is the story the same for every child?
Yes. The text is written in advance and is the same for everyone. Only the name changes. You can read it yourself first to see if it suits your child.
Do I need to install an app?
No. The story opens right here on the page.
