THE PERFECT NIGHTTIME READ - DESIGNED TO CALM YOUR MIND FOR A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP

*Introduced by Lucy Mangan* Recommended by RED magazine *

'Dreamy' STYLIST
'Calm and restore an anxious mind before sleep... the most beautiful book that will, without a doubt, put you in the mood for some ZZZZs.' THE SUN

Tales to soothe tired souls. A nighttime companion for frazzled adults, including calming stories and poems for a good night's sleep. This cheering book of best loved short tales, extracts and poems will calm and restore an anxious mind.

Sleep is essential for our well being and our health, but in our busy lives it is often poor and overlooked. Now is the time to put down your smartphone, stop a while and find consolation and wonder in other worlds where all is well and sleep just a page or two away.

From classic stories by Oscar Wilde, Guy de Maupassant and Katherine Mansfield, to friendly tales of our childhoods and poetry that reminds us of the simple joys of life, this lovingly curated book will soothe a tired mind and gently carry you to the peaceful land of sleep.

So switch off, snuggle down and allow yourself to escape into new worlds and old; magical, mysterious and tender realms that will accompany you to your own sweet dreams.

'Hurrah for a book that draws us away from the cold blue light of the smart phone and into the soothing glow of poems, short stories and extracts' THE SIMPLE THINGS

I'm very confused as to why this says 'expected release date 2019' when I bought it in a bookshop and have finished it? Anyway, I don't really know what to say. A) it served its purpose as in I read 1 to 2 stories per night before going to sleep and definitely slept well afterwards. B) there is a wi......more

I absolutely loved the idea behind this book. It had a beautiful cover and beautiful intentions, with such a great sounding title and premise, but just didn’t quite deliver in the way I wanted it to. I really did love the time I spent reading this just before bed, tucked up with a cup of herbal tea,......more
