Summary

Bedtime Stories for Stressed Out Adults: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience!

Introduced by Lucy Mangan

* * * Tales to soothe tired souls. A night time companion for frazzled adults, including calming stories and poems for a good night's sleep. * * *

This cheering book of best loved short tales, extracts and poems will calm and restore an anxious mind before sleep.

A good night's sleep is essential for our well being and our health, but in our busy lives sleep is often poor and overlooked. Now is the time to stop a while and find consolation and wonder in other worlds where all is well and sleep just a page or two away.

From classic stories by Oscar Wilde, Guy de Maupassant and Katherine Mansfield, to friendly tales of our childhoods, to poetry that reminds us of the simple joys of life, this lovingly curated book will soothe a tired mind and gently carry you to the peaceful land of sleep.

So switch off, snuggle down and allow yourself to escape into new worlds and old; magical, mysterious and tender realms that will accompany you to your own sweet dreams.


Booktrack is an immersive format that pairs traditional audiobook narration to complementary music. The tempo and rhythm of the score are in perfect harmony with the action and characters throughout the audiobook. Gently playing in the background, the music never overpowers or distracts from the narration, so listeners can enjoy every minute. When you purchase this Booktrack edition, you receive the exact narration as the traditional audiobook available, with the addition of music throughout.

Very disappointing and definitely doesn’t do what the title claims it to do.

This series of very short, old stores, read by narrators whose voices are neither soothing or likely to ‘soothe’ anyone’s mind, is not for me.
None of the few stories, or parts of the few stories I bothered to listen to, as they were not relaxing at all, nor were the voices of the various narrators. Why this audio book is called Bedtimes Stories for Stressed Out Adults is a mystery! They just did the opposite as they are, to my mind, anything but what they claim to be. Very disappointing.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
