Hello friends! Tonight’s bedtime story is a preview of Kind Little Edmund by Edith Nesbit—an imaginative tale about a kind-hearted boy who discovers a troublesome dragon deep within a mountain. With the help of a wise cockatrice, Edmund’s compassion is put to the test in the most unexpected way. 

This calming story is perfect for winding down, easing into stillness, and drifting off to sleep. 

Enjoy this short preview—and if you’d like to hear the full story, consider subscribing to Drift Off Premium for weekly bonus episodes and ad-free listening. 

So snuggle in, take a deep breath… and let the story carry you peacefully into dreamland. 

PLEASE NOTE: This story includes a brief mention of an old-fashioned school punishment that some might find a little uncomfortable. It’s a small part of the story and simply reflects the time it was written.
