Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Bouncey the Elf and Friends Bedtime Stories
Brian Leo Lee · 2012
65/100
👎 Skip It
Fifteen original bedtime stories rooted in years of real camping-trip storytelling with real kids is a charming origin, and parent reviewers confirm the tone hits the right calming note before sleep. The faery and elf characters are gentle fantasy, not anything concerning, but limited professional coverage and the modest production of a small-press title mean you're taking this largely on faith — which parent reviewers suggest is reasonably rewarded.
