Questions parents ask

Are these space stories calm enough for bedtime?

Yes. Every story ends with the hero safe and sleepy, and the last lines are quiet. Excitement lives in the middle of the story, not the end.

Can the story star my child?

Yes. Enter your child's name and age in the story maker and pick "Space"; the story is written for them in about ten seconds, with a matching illustration.

Is there narration?

Every English story here can be read aloud by a calm neural narrator, with a sleep timer that fades. Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese and Hindi stories are narrated too.
