Animal bedtime stories

Animal stories are the classic bedtime story for small children, and most of these themes are written for ages 3 to 6. Your child meets talking animals, rides a friendly whale, helps animals build a home and solves puzzles with a wise owl.

Several animals here have a small problem of their own: a kitten who cannot purr, a bear learning to share hugs, a bunny on its first rainy day. One real-world theme is about being gentle with a pet at home.
