How it works

Three steps between now and bedtime.

  1. 1

    Create their hero

    Name, age, and the little details that make them them: hair, eyes, their favourite look.

  2. 2

    Choose tonight's adventure

    A setting, a companion, a gentle lesson to weave in, or something straight from their day.

  3. 3

    Read it together

    A fully illustrated story, written and painted in about a minute, ready for tonight.

Made for bedtime

Calm stories. Gentle lessons. A happy ending, always.

Every Tale is written for the last ten minutes before sleep: no cliffhangers, nothing that'll wind them back up.

A few questions, answered

Is it okay right before bed?

Yes. Every story is written to end gently and happily, with nothing that'll overexcite them right before lights out.

Do I have to subscribe?

Nightly Tales is how you get a steady stream of new stories each month. Active subscribers can also top up with one-off Tale packs if they need a couple more before the month resets.

What languages does it support?

English, French, Arabic, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, German and Dutch: the same story, in whichever language you read together.

Where can I use Little Tales?

Right here on the web, no app download needed, or on iPhone and iPad. The Android app is coming soon.

Can I cancel any time?

Yes, straight from your account settings. No need to call or email anyone.

Tonight's story is still unwritten.

Give them the lead role.
