A Garden of Goodnight: A Bedtime Journey with Luna the Firefly

When the garden grows quiet and the moon rises, Luna the Firefly begins her gentle bedtime journey. With her warm, steady glow, she comforts friends who are almost ready for sleep but need a little help letting go of the day. Snail curls in his cabbage nest, Mouse settles in the strawberry patch, Caterpillar rests on the sunflower, Frog lingers by the lily pond, Kitten paces in the hayloft, and even the meadow itself waits for Luna’s song. Each one learns soft, repeatable steps that turn busy thoughts into peaceful dreams.

With patient, lullaby-like language and soothing imagery—dew resting on clover, lily pads still beneath the moon’s reflection, hay shaping itself into a nest—Luna guides her friends through bedtime games: slow breathing, naming gentle moments from the day, listening for safe night sounds, and choosing kind “guards” like the moon or crickets to watch through the night.

Every visit ends with Luna’s tender refrain: “Blink, blink, goodnight. Soft and small, and just right.”

Designed for repeat listening, A Garden of Goodnight blends mindfulness, nature imagery, and gentle storytelling into a dependable bedtime ritual. The audiobook edition makes the experience even more soothing, with calm narration and lyrical pacing that helps children feel safe, relaxed, and ready to sleep.

Perfect for ages three through eight, this story is ideal for families who want a peaceful bedtime routine. With comforting repetition, soft rhythm, and Luna’s steady glow, A Garden of Goodnight becomes more than a story—it is a bedtime companion children will return to night after night.
