Léo · The Night of the Pocket Dragon · knights, dragons and imagination · bedtime story · calm story to fall asleep · podcast for kids

A bedtime adventure for children about courage that has nothing to do with size. Disaster strikes Tournebois: one night, for no reason at all that anyone can see, Pistache begins to shrink. Smaller and smaller and smaller he goes, until he fits entirely inside Leo's coat pocket! A pocket-sized dragon, now that is something the whole kingdom has never, ever seen before.

What follows is a whole night packed with twists, surprises, and narrow escapes, in which this minuscule little dragon proves something very important indeed. Your size means nothing at all when you carry great big courage inside your heart. Tiny as he now is, Pistache slips through narrow gaps and squeezes into places that no one else could ever reach, and he saves the day more than once before the sun comes up. From up high in Leo's pocket, the whole world looks enormous, and yet brave little Pistache is not afraid for long.

By the time morning arrives, everyone in Tournebois sees Pistache differently, and best of all, Pistache finally sees himself differently too. He learns that being small is not the same thing as being weak, and that what truly counts is always what is on the inside. Where being big might have failed, being tiny turns out to be the very thing that saves the day.

This is a lively, encouraging adventure about believing in yourself, just right for children who sometimes feel far too small next to everyone else. It hands a little one a quiet bit of confidence to carry off into the night. It is the perfect tale for any child who has ever wished they were just a little bit bigger.

It is the kind of story that leaves a child standing a little taller on the inside, sure that their own courage matters just as much as anyone else's, whatever their size.

A screen-free audio adventure for children from age 5, lovely at bedtime or on a long drive. As always with Tilibou, the ending settles softly, without music, so your child can drift off calmly. 🐉
