The Railway Children (Chapter 1) — A Bedtime Story for Sleep

Hello sleepy listeners & welcome!

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

Starting this weekend, I am launching Drift Back Sundays! Every Sunday night, I will unlock a favorite cozy classic from my archive to help you ease into the workweek. Keep an eye on your feed this Sunday for a beloved favorite!

Tonight, we begin the timeless classic The Railway Children by E. Nesbit.

This beloved story follows three siblings whose comfortable lives are suddenly turned upside down, leading them to a quiet cottage in the countryside where unexpected friendships, small adventures, and acts of kindness begin to shape their new world. Filled with warmth, hope, and gentle moments, it's the perfect story to unwind with at the end of the day.

Now, make yourself comfortable, relax, and I hope you enjoy the story :)

Sweet dreams,

Joanne
