A quiet sleep story for when you can't switch your brain off, built around the stillest habit on the coast. An old fisherman sits alone on a flat rock before dawn every morning, fishing with a mended rod that never catches anything, and Prince Freddie learns that some mornings are not about catching anything at all. Slow, hushed, and companionable: a story to help your own thoughts stop reaching for something to solve.
Prince Freddie is a small dog in a flat gold crown who lives in a sleepy village on the Spanish coast, where the days are warm, the sea is always close, and nothing is ever in a hurry. These are slow bedtime stories, written to quiet an anxious mind and carry you down into sleep. You are not meant to reach the end.
No ads, ever. How to listen: lie down, dim the light, and let the words do the walking. If you drift off before the last line, the story has done its job.

If this one ends before you do, there is a longer telling. The Settle, Night 7, is the same story told twice, slower the second time, 25 minutes over a steady sea, with an ending you are not meant to hear. Ad-free, and the first seven nights are free. settle.princefreddie.com
Every story is written by the Prince Freddie studio and read by a calm synthetic voice.
Press play, and let the day settle.
