Summary

You can write a story about anything. It's true! This story is about a SOFA and...I really love it. ENJOY! If you LOVE this story, please share it with all talkative birds, any creatures of the night who might need a story to help them ease into their midnight naps, cats who need to be distracted from ripping apart their sofas, and...share it with your friends, too. And if you happen to have an Apple device, leave a review in Apple Podcasts! If your tiny person wants to share a story they've written, please send photos or recordings of it to rhea@littlestoriestinypeople.com. I LOVE to see their artwork, stories, and anything else they'd like to share. BIG THANKS to the listeners who provided sound effects used in the story: OLIVER, AMABELLA, CYPRESS, and AARON!
