Tóth Krisztina meséi fontos dolgokra hívják fel a figyelmünket egy-egy kedves történetbe csomagolva. Megtudhatjuk, hogy mi lett a kis denevérrel, aki madár akart lenni, hogyan gyógyult meg a kis hal, akinek megsérült az uszonya, hogyan élnek a szappanbuborékok, vagy hogy mi történik éjszaka az óvodában. A mesék a gyerekkor sűrűjét idézik, a nyári vakációk izgalmas hangulatát, az óvoda zsivaját. De valójában kortalanok, gondolatokat ébresztenek kortól függetlenül, egyszerre szórakoztatnak és tanítanak.
