A funny, true-to-life bedtime story for kids about saying sorry. Cassie the cowgirl has gone and made a real mess of things, and everybody in Cactus-Ville knows it perfectly well. But getting her to actually say sorry out loud? No way, never, not in a million years! She would sooner saddle up and gallop clear to the far edge of the desert than let those two little syllables past her lips.

Over the course of one long, stubborn, dusty day, Cassie slowly comes around to a realisation. Saying sorry is not losing at all, and it most certainly is not weak. It is simply the way that you put things right and mend what has been broken between two people. And the real, true courage, it turns out in the end, is sometimes just owning up that you got it wrong. The longer she holds out, the heavier her stubbornness sits, until she can hardly stand it any longer. She huffs and she stomps and she finds a hundred reasons to put it off, but the feeling will not leave her be. All day long her friends wait patiently, hoping she will find the courage to put things right between them.

When she finally finds the bravery to say it, properly and out loud and from the heart, the tight knot of stubbornness inside her loosens all at once, and making up feels far, far better than digging her heels in ever did.

This is a funny, honest story about pride, apologies, and making up again, so a child can go to bed feeling lighter and at ease, with no grumpiness or hurt feelings left behind. It is an honest, funny little story that makes saying sorry feel brave rather than embarrassing.

It gently shows that everyone gets it wrong sometimes, and that one brave little sorry can set a whole heart at peace before sleep.

A screen-free audio story for children ages 3 to 5, lovely at bedtime or in the car. And even after a good laugh, the Tilibou ending stays soft and quiet, without music, to help everyone wind down before the night. 🤠
