These are bedtime stories told by a real dad to his kids, recorded for children everywhere. The Seven Friends are Ernest the Elephant, Beatrice the Bear, Harry the Hippo, Louisa the Lion, Jerry the Giraffe, Mary the Monkey, and Jordan the Panda. They live with their families in the forest, in houses that surround a common garden. Every day the friends meet new animals and have adventures together, and then they sleep soundly all the way through the night.
