In KidSlumber stories no-one dies, no
child is abandoned by its parents, nor are the stories saccharine or babyish.
The stories are intended to be enjoyable for both the child and the reader and certainly not a chore for the reader.
Each story takes about 10-12 minutes to read and has humor, rhyme and
usually a moral. The stories are written for the children of today, not
past centuries.
For children 5-10+ years.
Approximately 40,000 words.
Being a busy parent (who happens to be a writer), Pat needed bedtime stories that were short, suitable, available instantly and without the old stereotypes or scary themes. When such stories could not be found it was time to reach for some fresh parchment and start writing. There are now two volumes of KidSlumber Bedtime Stories that are popular all over the world.
