However, I think this would be better suited to delivery via internet. Then you could start the story when you wished.
People who do not read do not generally fare well on the internet. Bedtime stories are best experienced from a couch or bed.

We enjoyed Living Books and the others. Great way for kids to get used to reading and computers.
