Fearless Fairy Tales: Card for Yoto Player / Mini - Yoto

Your favourite classic bedtime stories utterly turned on their heads! You'll never look at a fairytale the same way again.

Fearless Fairy Tales is a hilarious and anarchic collection of classic bedtime stories for young listeners, all utterly updated for a new generation.

Meet Trumplestiltskin, a vain and gold-obsessed little man who will stop at nothing to become richer and richer. There's Sleeping Brainy, the princess whose only dream is to become Chancellor of the Exchequer, and the Gingerbread Kid, who escapes persecution in his home country but struggles to fit in in his new one. You won't forget the lingering stench of Mouldysocks - a boy obsessed with staring at his iPad but rather less obsessed with personal hygiene - and you'll be rooting for Rap-Unzel when she gets the chance of fame by appearing on Kingdom's Got Talent...but at what cost?

Packed with stories about boys who aren't afraid to cry and rhymes about girls who refuse to kiss frogs, Fearless Fairy Tales shakes up dusty, old-fashioned (and, to be honest, rather sexist) bedtime stories and totally reinvents them for the 21st century. From fake news to female footballers, environmental pollution to equal pay, nothing is off limits in this anthology of laugh-out-loud fairy tales with thoroughly modern morals.

Told in the fresh, vibrant and unique voice of Blue Peter favourite Konnie Huq and writing with James Kay, Fearless Fairy Tales is the perfect gift for young listeners (and older listeners fed up with serving their kids the same old boring bedtime stories).

Read by Konnie Huq.

Yoto Cards let kids choose which audio content they’d like to listen to on their Yoto Player. Just pop a Yoto Card into the top of your Yoto Player to start the audio and take it out to pause. When you reinsert your card, the audio starts from the moment you paused it.

Yoto Cards are sturdily built to resist the destructive powers of tiny hands, and the NFC chip in each allows the Player to read the content. Parents can also trigger playback on compatible smartphones by tapping the card on the back of your phone.

Requires Yoto Player.  Yoto Player is a carefully-connected smart speaker for kids, which lets children listen to audiobooks, music, podcasts, sound effects and more using physical cards. Yoto Player is built for kids from the ground up and plays only the audio that you want.
