Short stories for children

I want to write stories to be read aloud to children aged 5 to 10 and they all fit under 10 minutes. I love being read to or reading aloud to others and I think parents should continue reading aloud to children even beyond the time when they can read themselves. This is about sharing stories and sharing special times; a bit like the idea that sharing mealtimes is about more than sharing food!
