'Great for settling the mind before bed' - 5* LISTENER REVIEW

Sail away in a wooden shoe on a river of crystal light; lose yourself in memories of a first love sparked by a dragonfly on a July day; and drift off on the lush grass of a giant's garden, filled with the sweet sound of birdsong and the fresh scent of blossom.

Switch off and snuggle down with writing from Leo Tolstoy and Oscar Wilde to Edith Wharton and Lewis Carroll, and find consolation and wonder in other worlds, where all is well and sleep is just a page or two away.

Sweet dreams . . .
