Welcome to Mangrove Bay
There's a place in the Bahamas where the mangroves glow silver under the moon, the water is warm as bathwater, and twenty little animals are waiting to become your child's best friends. That place is Mangrove Bay — and it's where every Mangrove Moon story begins.
Bedtime Tales from the Bahamas
Mangrove Moon is a 20-book bedtime series for ages 3–7, written by Madison Butler. Each book follows a different Bahamian animal on an original adventure — and every story weaves in real animal science, so your little one falls asleep a little smarter.
What makes it different
- Real Bahamian wildlife — Nassau grouper, rock iguana, bonefish, flamingo. Not generic cartoon animals: the actual creatures of our islands.
- Original watercolor-style illustrations — the books feature original watercolor-style illustrations created with AI-assisted artistry, written and art-directed by Madison Butler.
- Science in every story — echolocation, migration, coral reefs. Learning disguised as adventure.
- Instant download — no shipping, no waiting. Bedtime is tonight.
- Made for kids, loved by parents — gentle pacing, cozy endings, zero scary surprises.
