The Bedtime Chronicles

The Bedtime Chronicles is a new children’s book series written by Derek Siskin, that brings a unique and innovative spin to the traditional rhyme book genre. Inspired by the creative wordplay and style of hip-hop music, the series centers on the Rimes family: parents – Stan and Pam, their kids – Benny and Mary Lou, and Benny’s stuffed animal bunny, Hip-Hop. Each tale takes place at night as Benny requests a bedtime story – and in every book, a different family member takes him on a hilarious, rhyme-filled adventure meant to capture the imagination. What’s more, The Bedtime Chronicles isn’t just for kids. With clever illustrations and pop culture references sprinkled throughout each book, it also appeals to those often-overlooked individuals responsible for the buying and reading of said books… the parents! Imaginative, funny, cool, and musical - The Bedtimes Chronicles is truly fun for the whole family. Legend Of The Dadman is the first book to be released in The Bedtime Chronicles series, and Stan has just the bedtime tale to tell, which is about a super (average) guy known simply as “Dadman.” And whether grilling, drilling, giving piggyback rides, or teaching farts and crafts, we soon find out that the seemingly ordinary responsibilities of being a dad are way more extraordinary than they appear to be. The second installment in The Bedtime Chronicles is Girl with the Blue Hair which follows Mary Lou as she recounts the inspiring story of her showdown with the school bully, Bobby Shay. When confronted and stereotyped by Bobby during class, Mary Lou has no choice but to square off against him in a battle of wits, strength, and speed to prove why you should never judge a book by its cover. Beyond our series, we reinforce our mission to save bedtime by donating a book for every book sold through our partnership with Pajama Program, a 501c3 organization.
