Synopsis

Build character and memories at bedtime with short modern read-aloud stories that equip parents for a good night!

If you're looking for stories that will engage your child more than the typical outdated fairy tales or the newer AI-written fluff, look no further! This book has fourteen beautifully illustrated stories that are: relevant, fun, contemporary, short, and geared toward essential virtues.

** UPDATE ** All of Savannah Bloom's 5-Minute Stories now include beautiful illustrations!

As a parent of young boys, Savannah Bloom found read-aloud stories to either be 1) antiquated fairy tales, 2) too cheesy, or 3) contemporary and fun, but without a moral lesson.

So, Mrs. Bloom set out to write 5-Minute Modern Day Bedtime Stories to fill a void for parents wanting to use the vital bedtime routine to both entertain modern children AND teach valuable character to their little ones, especially geared for ages 5-8.

She wanted to provide parents like her with read-aloud stories that…

…make sense to today’s children.
…are witty, fun, and entertaining.
…are whimsical, but not cheesy.
…build character.
…and are short, so you can go do adult things.

Her first collection promotes character traits such as: Honesty, Self-Control, Helpfulness, Kindness, Positivity, Persistence, Gratitude, Cleanliness, Hard Work, and more, all while containing several features that parents will appreciate:

- Fun and serious questions to discuss with your child to ensure the lesson hits home.
- Human protagonists only, because research shows that kids learn character best from other kids – not anthropomorphic animals (Larsen, Lee, Ganea. Developmental Science, 2017.)
- All original stories, though some parallel old favorites (example: The Boy Who Cried Drone).
- Whimsical and fantastic vibe through use of technology (drones, portals, virtual reality, etc) with just enough plausibility to spark STEM dreams.
- Beautiful illustrations to help young imagines soar (or can be ignored by the reader in order to motivate kids to lay in bed, close their eyes, and fully engage their imaginations.)
