Stories for the quietest part of the day.
A bedtime world built from moonlight, kindness, comfort and tiny magical jobs.
Welcome to the world behind the Department.
Olivia Blackwood writes gentle, imaginative stories designed for the final quiet moments before sleep. The Little Night Department follows tiny magical workers whose small nighttime jobs lead to warm discoveries about kindness, patience, comfort, courage and rest.
The collection was created as a world children can return to again and again. Every new story introduces a different worker, while the same sleepy town, glowing skies and sense of bedtime wonder make the Department feel familiar from the very first page.
“While the world sleeps, The Little Night Department gets to work.”
The goal is simple: make bedtime feel a little softer, a little cosier and a little more magical.
