Description

Tom the Pirate is like no other pirate. Aboard his tiny Royal Sardine, he is not after gold: he looks for lost treasures so he can hand them back to whoever is missing them. This morning a soaking wet map floats up from the bottom of the sea, drawn in fish scales, its letters blowing little bubbles as they go.

The sail shivers, and the map sings its song: dive straight down where the sea turns blue, listen to the silence, and you will find something better. It comes from Marée, a mermaid who has lost her voice just before the great Concert of the Waves, the evening when the dolphins, the whales and the baby fish all wait for her to sing the highest, loveliest note in the world.

Tom and Moustache go down to where everything turns blue and calm. They head first to the crab pharmacist, who mixes a potion with a pinch of sea pepper. Bad idea: Marée sneezes so hard that every jar in the shop goes flying. You cannot bottle a voice, sighs the crab.

So Tom listens to the map properly. If Marée's voice is not lost but simply worn out from singing too long in the cold, then what she needs is gentleness, not effort. Moustache's eight arms bring a warm herbal tea, wrap her in a scarf of seaweed and give her a little massage, and the whole ocean goes quiet to let her rest. In that great hush, a small humming comes back. At the Concert of the Waves, Marée finds her finest note again and gives Tom a fish scale that goes ting like a tiny bell: the sixth keepsake.

A tender underwater adventure that reassures small children about something they meet every winter. When you have a cold or you are very tired, you do not force your voice: you rest, you stay warm, and it all comes back after a good night's sleep. And it is Moustache who says so out loud, because he knows better than anyone that his own voice always comes back if he gives it time.

A screen-free adventure and bedtime story for children aged 3 to 5, good to share at bedtime, in the car, or before a nap. As always with Tilibou, the ending stays soft and quiet, with no music, so the little aches and sniffles of the evening lose their sting and sleep can come. 🌙

About Tilibou: Bedtime Stories for Kids · Calm Sleep Stories for Toddlers

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.
