Stephen have you considered doing a series with aesops fables? Relatively short, mostly animal characters, no violence, seems to lend itself well to a story compilation video

My 7 yo twin girls ask for you by name now. I've been listening to you for over a year now. Mediation was how I found you. I've used a similar version of your count down to help them sleep for about 5 years now. It's part of why I started listening. I would love to hear some more sleep mediations if you ever get the chance.❤❤

Beautiful story! Would it be possible to also do another traditional, well-known fairy tale with your unique touch-up writing skills to make it "sleep friendly"? I love the longer ones! Thank you for your wonderful work and beautiful voice. You are helping many people get to sleep and stay there longer. God Bless!❤😊
