Summary

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.

Works every time

My daughter has used this every night for nearly a year , her brain just registers with book and goes to sleep now . It’s so lovely too.
She goes to sleep with positive thoughts too.
This is the new way to get a better nights sleep.
My older boys and I also use audible for the same purpose.

A surprise for me

We have been using this audio book to assist at bedtime for the last month.
Tonight was the first time I realised there is 2 chapters, both the same story but read by different narrators.
It definitely works on both me and my 3 year old son, and we are both normally fast asleep by halfway through the first chapter.

Snooze at ten

Works incredibly well. I prefer the first in the series - the rabbit one. But they both normally see me asleep before the end of the chapter.

Awesome.

This has worked for my 3 year old every night for the last 2 months. He loves it and falls asleep about 15-20 mins in. We just use a Bluetooth speaker and play it in his room from our phones. Works a dream!

Highly recommended +++++
