Description

Stories have the power to inspire, connect, educate. More importantly, stories mold the spirit—one listening ear and one beating word at a time.

“Mimicry and recitation have no place in fables, as an entirely different story is evolving below the surface…. This ability to reach for what is hidden is the basis for everything that makes us uniquely human.” — Justin Matthews

Words writ not on paper but poured from the heart have a knack for stirring something inside us, whether that be an unanswered question, an untold truth, or an undisclosed fear.

This is what author Justin Matthews sought to accomplish when he wrote “Bedtime Stories for Cara: Volume 1”—a captivating collection of spiritually inspired fables that transcend age and religion. With themes of love, perseverance, faith, and more, these heartfelt tales offer a universal message of connection, beautifully crafted for adults, young adults, and children alike.

Through poetic storytelling and profound lessons, this collection invites readers to reflect on life’s deeper meaning and embrace their unique journey with gratitude and courage. Whether shared at bedtime or cherished quietly, the “Bedtime Stories for Cara” series creates moments of peace, inspiration, and enduring joy.
