Tonight, about 10 minutes

Mira and the Moon Fox

Mira pulled her blue boots on, though it was nearly night.

The moon had a fox with her, small and silver, waiting by the gate.

Walk slowly, said the fox. Nothing is in a hurry tonight.

Tonight’s story is written for one child, and shaped like a lullaby.

The last page

The lines get shorter and slower as the story goes.

The hill was quiet.

Each step was softer than the last.

The fox yawned, and Mira yawned.

And the moon pulled the dark up to Mira's chin.

Goodnight, Mira.

The end.

It slows down line by line, until the room is quiet.

What every story is

A teddy bear, a paper star and a crescent moon drawn in white line, with stars falling beneath them

Written for one child

Every story uses their name, their age and their favourite things, so the hero is the one in the bed.

Waves drawn in white line that start fast and tall, then slow and flatten out beneath a small moon

Shaped like a lullaby

Not an adventure. Each story slows as it goes, runs about 10 minutes, and ends in sleep.

How it works

Three small steps, and then the story does the settling.

A child in profile drawn in white line, the hair filled with tiny stars, a moon medallion on a necklace

Introduce your child

Tell us their name, their age and what they love most.

A story is written for tonight

A new one every night, about them and no one else.

A small bed under a crescent moon, drawn in white line, with a moon medallion beneath

It settles into sleep

About 10 minutes, shaped to end with the lights low and the room quiet.

A story, as it arrives

This is a sample, written for a made-up child: Mira, age 5, who loves foxes, the moon and her blue boots.

Tonight’s storySample

Mira and the Moon Fox

Mira pulled her blue boots on, though it was nearly night.

The moon had a fox with her, small and silver, waiting by the gate.

Walk slowly, said the fox. Nothing is in a hurry tonight.

So they walked, past the sleepy puddles, one soft step at a time.

Each step was quieter than the last.

At the top of the hill the fox yawned, and Mira yawned, and the whole sky yawned.

And the moon pulled the dark up, like a blanket, to Mira’s chin.

Goodnight, Mira.
