You already made it through dinner, cleanup, bath, pajamas, and the last-minute water request. You know reading matters. You just don’t always have the energy to invent a story from scratch.
Goodnight, Little Hero gives you a fresh story before bed. Your child is the hero. You bring the voice.
“Some nights I had a story in me. A lot of nights I didn’t. I was tired, or out of ideas, and bedtime turned into a negotiation instead of a moment. So I built the thing I wished I had: a fresh story, ready and waiting, where my kid is the hero and all I have to do is read it.”
Derek · Founder & Dad
Their name, age, favorite things, and bedtime routine. Set it up once, change it anytime.
Every evening we write a brand-new adventure starring your child. Same hero, a new story, never the same night twice.
It arrives before bedtime, ready to read aloud. Save the ones they love to your Forever Bookshelf, and a new one comes tomorrow.
Set up each kid once. Each night, every child gets a story built just for them.
Update their details anytime. New interests, new routines, new obsessions, and each nightly story keeps up.
Hearing their own name pulls them right into the story. They're not just listening, they're in it.
Dinosaurs, space, sharks, trains, soccer, their stuffed animal. Whatever they love shows up in the story.
Teeth, pajamas, lights down. The bedtime routine becomes part of the adventure instead of a checklist you're nagging them through.
Try five nights of fresh stories made just for them, no card needed. Then keep the bedtime ritual going for less than the cost of a new hardcover.
Your free trial includes our starter bonuses — Tonight's Bedtime Chart, The Calm Bedtime Routine Guide, Read-Aloud Like a Pro — and membership opens the full bonus vault: all 14 printable bonuses, including the illustrated 50-story library and its matching coloring book.
One child, one brand-new story every night, made for their age and the things they love.
Four kids included, with a story for each child every night.
Every story is written fresh for your child and kept gentle, age-appropriate, and free of scary cliffhangers. It arrives in your inbox before bedtime, so you always read it yourself first — nothing reaches your kid that you haven't seen.
We only ask for your child's first name and age. Everything else, like favorite things and routines, is optional. We use these details only to write and save your family's stories, nothing else.
Your first five nights are free, and no card is needed to start. We will send a reminder on your last free day so you can choose Single Hero or Family if you want to keep nightly stories coming.
Never. You read from your phone or a printout, at the bedside. There’s no kid-facing app, and you never have to hand them a screen.
Your choice each night. Short runs about 5 minutes read aloud, medium about 10, and long is 20 or more. Pick the length that fits the night.
Use the Contact link at the bottom of any page to send us a message. A real person reads every one and will help you sort it out.
You never need a card to start. If bedtime isn’t better by night five, just walk away. You’ll never hear from us again, and every story you made is yours to keep. Worst case, you got five good nights for free.
Five free nights. No card needed.
