George cannot simply calm down once he is tucked in his bed, therefore his mom Emily prepares to read him a bedtime story. Emily doesn’t like nowadays, violent stories, hence she decides to read out of the family ancestor’s fables book. These are nice, exciting and funny stories, with plenty of moral teachings beyond that old style they are written in; furthermore they set the mind free to wander with imagination.
Fortunately for George, his favorite toys - a doll, a soldier and a bear - are there to make each story an adventurous journey into the kingdom of fantasy.Mom tries several times to put her son to bed, switch off the light, and gently let him fall to sleep; however each time his Doll, Soldier and Bear become alive and bring a hilarious chaos to the bedroom.
Far from being a boring, old styled text, the family’s fables book turns into an imaginary playground where George and his friends fight, tease each other, sing and jump until finally exhausted they all fall asleep.
