The Dragon Who Wanted to Be a Knight

⏱ 14 min · 👶 from age 5

A bedtime adventure for kids about the freedom to be yourself. What if a dragon dreamed, more than anything else in the whole wide world, of becoming a real knight? Standing right in front of the sign-up board at Tournebois, Pistache gazes up and dreams out loud of having his very own shining suit of armour and his very own gleaming sword. With Leo right there beside him, championing him at every single step of the way, Pistache slowly comes to understand something freeing and important. You can chase even your very biggest dreams while staying exactly, completely who you already are. You never have to change your scales, hide away your wings, or turn into somebody else just to be a hero. Leo never asks his friend to be anything other than himself, and that makes all the difference in the world. The dream is a big one for a little dragon, but Pistache holds on to it with all his heart. Standing before that great board of names, he imagines his own one written proudly among the knights of Tournebois. By the end of it all, Pistache stands tall and proud, a dragon and a knight both at once, living proof that following your dreams and being true to yourself are not opposites at all. They fit together beautifully, side by side, just as they are. This is a heartfelt adventure about friendship, big dreams, and the freedom to be yourself, and it brings the adventures of Leo and Pistache to a lovely close. A warm, hopeful note to end any day on. It is a hopeful, heartfelt tale about chasing your dreams without ever losing who you are. It gently reminds a little one that they are already wonderful exactly as they are, and that the very best dreams are the ones you chase as your own true self. A screen-free audio adventure for children from age 5, lovely at bedtime or on a car trip. As always with Tilibou, the ending settles softly, without music, so your child can finish the day feeling calm. All Tilibou bedtime stories on
