Audible's Bedtime Stories are designed to let you drift off with no nagging feeling that you need to listen through to the end. Their purpose is to let you slowly fall into peaceful, restful sleep.

For this story, Emmy award winning actor and creative renaissance man, Alan Cumming, brings us the tale of The Swan Prince's Lantern.

In a quiet glen hidden from time, a swan prince lights his lantern each night, casting soft golden light across the reeds and reflecting pools. As moonlight ripples on the water and gentle wings stir the mist, the prince recalls the stories of stars, wishes, and the spell that gave him his form. A magical fable told in whispers, where light and love linger on the edge of dreams.

The Audible Sleep collection is a treasure. This story is so effective that night after night I never made it awake to the ending, until I listened in the middle of the day -- and there's no explosive tagline at the end of my copy (a feature I truly appreciated!). Just the right amount of lyrical detail, voiced to perfection.

Absolutely Absorbing, Very Effective
