Let’s Talk About Magic Things
Real conversations, endless adventures
Let's Talk About Magic Things is a picture book that captures the authentic bedtime ritual between a father and his son. Every night, 4-year-old Grayson says, "Let's talk about magic things," and together with his dad Lukas, they imagine fantastical scenarios—beds that time-travel to the age of dinosaurs, rocket-powered skis, monster trucks with marshmallow wheels, fart detectors, magic toasters with ‘banana mode’ and so much more.
The book features 14 magical adventures, each told across a 2-page spread in gentle verse that maintains bedtime rhythm while sparking imagination. Every scenario balances wonder with security—Grayson soars above erupting volcanoes and meets Stegosauruses but always remains safe under his rainbow-striped doona with Dadda beside him.
What sets this apart is its authenticity. Unlike manufactured bedtime stories, these verses are distilled from real nightly conversations between Lukas and Grayson—transcribed, refined, and converted into age-appropriate verse that sounds exactly like a 4-year-old's imagination, not an adult-imposed fantasy.
Soft watercolor illustrations in the tradition of classic picture books like Guess How Much I Love You create a warm, cozy atmosphere perfect for winding down.
