Bedtime stories for kids, read aloud by Ollie the owl — your child is the star.
Petite Tales is a cozy bedtime-story app for children: gentle tales from around the world, painted and read aloud by Ollie the story owl, with new stories that star your child. Every story winds down as it goes, so the last page lands softly. When it ends, Ollie yawns, puts on his nightcap, and the screen fades to dark. Goodnight, little one. A LIBRARY FROM AROUND THE WORLD More than 100 gentle retellings of well-loved tales: Aesop's fables, the Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Andersen, the Jataka tales, the Panchatantra, Anansi, and folk stories from many lands. Each one is a few minutes long, painted like a storybook, and written for children of about 3 to 7 — no villains who stay mean, no peril, no scary endings. ONE FREE STORY EVERY WEEK Every family gets a library tale each week, picked at random and yours to replay every night that week. Read aloud, fully illustrated, no account needed. YOUR CHILD, THE STAR OF THE STORY With Petite Tales Plus, make brand-new stories where your child is the hero: their name, their look, their cuddly companion, the things they love, and the gentle lesson you choose for tonight. Their pictures are painted from choices you make — never from a photo. The app has no camera or photo access at all. READ ALOUD, READ TOGETHER, OR JUST LISTEN • Ollie reads aloud and the pages turn by themselves, even with the phone locked • "Read together" shows big words and full-screen pictures for a grown-up to read • "Just listen" hides the words so the phone can be put down • 6 gentle voices and 4 reading styles, from a hushed whisper to a fireside storyteller • Personal stories in 24 languages; the library is in English, and some tales are also in Spanish MADE FOR BEDTIME Dusk colours keep the room dim, and the goodnight screen fades almost to black. Turn on "One story a night" and, after "The end", starting another story needs a grown-up until morning. Purchases, settings, reports and links out of the app sit behind a grown-ups' check: tap three numbers spelled out in words. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No ads of any kind. No analytics and no advertising ID. No account, email or sign-up. No photos of your child, ever. A library tale is saved on the phone the first time it opens and plays offline after that — ready for bedtime anywhere. You can delete all your family's data with one button in Settings. FAIR AND CLEAR The weekly story is free for everyone. Petite Tales Plus opens the whole library and adds 10 new personal stories a month, for $7.99/month or $79.99/year (US prices; your local price is shown before you buy), with a 7-day free trial that includes 3 personal stories. Once a month's stories are used, an extra story is $1.99, and extra stories never expire. Personal stories are kept safely with your subscription and come back on a new phone — no login needed. MADE CAREFULLY, CHECKED BY PEOPLE Stories, pictures and narration are created with AI in our own storybook style, then read, looked at and listened to before they are published. Every narrated page is checked word-for-word against its text, and every book has a "Report this story" button for grown-ups. COMMON QUESTIONS Does it work offline? A library tale needs the internet the first time it opens; after that it plays from the phone. Personal stories replay offline too; making a new one needs a connection. Do you need a photo of my child? No, never. You choose how they look from a few options, and the pictures are painted from that. Are there ads? No. There are no ads of any kind, and the app doesn't use an advertising ID. Petite Tales is made by a small indie studio. Sweet dreams.
