Category: Bird

Birds drum on trees, steal hats and settle into their nests throughout these bedtime stories. Danny the woodpecker learns what happens when his tapping goes too far, a cheeky cockatoo complicates Tilly’s Australian visit, and smaller birds join the forest at bedtime. The collection mixes animal sounds, humour and simple nature details with stories about listening, helping and finding a quiet place to rest.

The Woodpecker Who Broke His Beak

Danny's drumming wakes the whole forest until he breaks the tip of his beak. In this woodpecker bedtime story, nutshells and a wooden button lead to a noisy surprise. This is a comic animal fantasy, not advice on caring for an injured bird.

Tilly the Little Ranger in Australia

Tilly helps Auntie Kylie care for water stations in an Australian park, meeting kangaroos, koalas, wombats and other wildlife. This interactive animal bedtime story invites children to copy hops, laughs and yawns. A cheeky cockatoo adds a missing-hat mishap before Tilly heads home to bed.

The Hottest Day in Vivi’s Forest

The heat has emptied the clearing where Vivi usually plays. In this forest animal bedtime story, the little squirrel searches the woods and city park for her friends, discovers their shady hiding places, and brings them together to share water and plant more trees.
