Description

A bedtime story for children about the little worries that grow big at night. It is time for sleep in the tree-house, and something is terribly wrong. Calinou, Noisette's favourite cuddly rabbit, has gone missing. No soft little ear to hold, no familiar friend to tuck under her chin, no warm shape to fall asleep against. How on earth do you close your eyes without him? Noisette searches under the bed, behind the cushions, all through her round little room, and still no Calinou.

Just as the tears start to well up and the evening threatens to turn into a real drama, Papa Bear sits down beside her on the edge of the bed and shares a simple secret. A warm hug and a little bit of imagination are often enough to soothe even the biggest worries of the night. Together, they discover that you can build a backup cuddly inside your head: picture his long floppy ears, his soft grey fur, the exact way he feels in your arms, and then hold him every bit as tightly as the real one.

Little by little, the panic melts away and Noisette's breathing slows back down. She realises that what made Calinou so special was never only his soft fur. It was the comfort and the love she poured into him every single night, and that kind of comfort she can always find again, even with empty paws.

This is a reassuring sleep story, made for the bedtime routine and for those all-too-real evenings when the cuddly is nowhere to be found. It gently takes the drama out of a lost doudou and helps a little one find their smile again before the lights go out.

It is the kind of calm story that hands a child a small tool of their very own: a hug, a deep breath, and a happy picture to hold on to whenever something feels missing in the night. A soft, soothing way to settle a worried little heart.

A screen-free sleep story for toddlers from age 2, gentle to listen to at bedtime, at nap time, or in the car on the way home. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft, without music, so your child can settle down calmly. 🌙

About Tilibou: Bedtime Stories for Kids

Welcome to Tilibou, a premium audio storytelling label for children aged 2 to 5: gentle bedtime stories crafted to accompany the moment of sleep, help little ones calm down and drift off peacefully. Every episode is a small evening ritual, to listen to together, tucked up in bed.

Tilibou's promise is simple: stories to fall asleep, dream and grow. The ending is always entirely spoken, in a soft fade, with no music, so the child falling asleep is never woken at the most delicate moment. No advertising, no screens and no collection of children's data: an experience designed for families, respectful and reassuring.

Each story lasts 10 to 20 minutes and is told with a warm, gentle voice, wrapped in discreet soundscapes, such as the forest at night, rain, a stream or a crackling fire, that cradle the tale without ever covering it. The stories are about emotions, little fears to tame, courage, friendship and wonder, with simple words and poetic images suited to the very young.

The world of Tilibou unfolds across several universes, each with its own atmosphere and characters. There is Noisette, the little bear of the evening, who helps name emotions and get ready for sleep, from age 2. There are Léo and Pistache, a small knight and his slightly scaredy dragon, who set off on adventures in search of courage. There are Cassie and Tornado, an energetic cowgirl and her placid pony, for the funniest stories of the West. There are Marin and Plume, a boy and his seagull who explore nature at a child's eye level. There is Tom the Pirate and his crew, sailing from island to island with gentle, never-scary adventures. And there are the seasonal collections: Christmas stories, funny and not-at-all-scary Halloween stories, and preschool stories to support the first steps at school.

Tilibou comes in several languages, including English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German and Italian: the same gentleness and the same characters, to fall asleep anywhere in the world. A little creature of the night, Tilibou, introduces and accompanies every story with its star-shaped lantern.

Whether for the bedtime ritual, a calm moment in the afternoon or a long journey, Tilibou offers parents a precious ally: beautiful stories to listen to, ad-free and screen-free, that help children relax, dream and fall asleep with a smile. Good night and sweet dreams with Tilibou.
