Hello, I'm Rosamund.

0:00:000:00:01

I love Christmas. Do you?

0:00:030:00:06

It's just a wonderful time of year, isn't it?

0:00:060:00:08

I love the tree and all the sparkly lights and the decorations

0:00:080:00:12

and all the yummy food, and the rustling,

0:00:120:00:15

and the giving and receiving of gifts.

0:00:150:00:18

And tonight's bedtime story is about a very special Christmas gift.

0:00:180:00:22

Would you like to hear about it?

0:00:220:00:25

Great.

0:00:250:00:26

This story is called Merry Christmas, Blue Kangaroo!

0:00:260:00:30

by Emma Chichester Clark.

0:00:300:00:33

Blue Kangaroo belonged to Lily.

0:00:330:00:36

He was her very own kangaroo and it was his first Christmas.

0:00:360:00:40

"Look", whispered Lily,

0:00:400:00:43

"it's snowing -

0:00:430:00:45

"just for you, Blue Kangaroo."

0:00:450:00:48

Lily made her own Christmas cards.

0:00:480:00:50

She drew robins and holly

0:00:500:00:52

and she stuck stars on them.

0:00:520:00:55

"I've made one for everyone," she said,

0:00:550:00:58

"and one just for you, Blue Kangaroo."

0:00:580:01:01

"Just for me?" thought Blue Kangaroo.

0:01:020:01:06

"I wish I could make one for Lily."

0:01:060:01:09

The next day, Lily and her mother made Christmas decorations.

0:01:090:01:13

They cut up coloured paper and stuck it with glue.

0:01:130:01:18

"It's going to be so pretty," cried Lily,

0:01:180:01:21

"and it's just for you, Blue Kangaroo!"

0:01:210:01:24

"And for you." said her mother.

0:01:240:01:27

In the afternoon, Uncle George and Lily's father

0:01:280:01:31

brought home the Christmas tree.

0:01:310:01:34

"It's Blue Kangaroo's first Christmas, Uncle George."

0:01:340:01:37

"Well, then," said Uncle George.

0:01:380:01:41

"here's a treat just for you, Blue Kangaroo."

0:01:410:01:44

"Just for me?" thought Blue Kangaroo.

0:01:440:01:48

"What will I do with a tree?"

0:01:480:01:50

The next day, Lily and her mother wrapped up presents.

0:01:550:01:59

"I hope you're not looking,

0:01:590:02:01

"because this one's just for you, Blue Kangaroo." said Lily.

0:02:010:02:05

Lily helped put the presents under the tree.

0:02:050:02:08

"Just for me?" thought Blue Kangaroo.

0:02:080:02:11

"I wish I had one for Lily."

0:02:110:02:13

Later on, Aunt Jemima and Aunt Florence came.

0:02:150:02:19

Aunt Jemima brought mince pies

0:02:190:02:21

and Aunt Florence brought gingerbread men.

0:02:210:02:24

"One for you, Lily, and one for your little brother.

0:02:240:02:27

"And this one is just for you, Blue Kangaroo," said Aunt Florence.

0:02:270:02:34

"Just for me?" thought Blue Kangaroo.

0:02:340:02:37

"It's just like me!"

0:02:370:02:39

Lily's grandparents arrived in the evening.

0:02:410:02:44

"It's Blue Kangaroo's first Christmas," said Lily.

0:02:440:02:48

Everyone sang carols around the tree

0:02:480:02:50

and then Lily sang one all by herself.

0:02:500:02:54

"Just for you, Blue Kangaroo!"

0:02:540:02:56

"Just for me?" thought Blue Kangaroo.

0:02:560:03:00

"I wish I could sing for Lily."

0:03:000:03:02

Before bed, Lily hung up her stocking.

0:03:040:03:07

"Do you think Father Christmas will come?" she asked.

0:03:070:03:12

"He'll come when you're fast asleep." said her mother.

0:03:120:03:16

"Good night, Blue Kangaroo." whispered Lily.

0:03:160:03:20

And she closed her eyes tight.

0:03:200:03:22

But Blue Kangaroo lay wide-eyed through the night.

0:03:230:03:27

-Suddenly, there was a funny noise.

-BELLS JINGLE

0:03:280:03:32

Blue Kangaroo's whiskers bristled.

0:03:320:03:35

His ears tingled.

0:03:350:03:37

"Is it Father Christmas?" he wondered.

0:03:380:03:42

A big, yellow moon was shining through the house

0:03:420:03:45

and everything was quiet.

0:03:450:03:48

-Then he heard it again.

-BELLS JINGLE

0:03:480:03:50

"It must be Father Christmas." thought Blue Kangaroo.

0:03:500:03:54

"Perhaps he can help me?"

0:03:540:03:56

Blue Kangaroo waited.

0:03:570:03:59

The noises got louder,

0:03:590:04:02

then crashing,

0:04:020:04:03

and bomp!

0:04:030:04:04

"Father Christmas?" he whispered.

0:04:060:04:09

"What can I do for you,

0:04:090:04:11

"little Blue Kangaroo?" asked Father Christmas.

0:04:110:04:15

"Well, Lily says everything is just for me,

0:04:150:04:20

"but I want something just for her

0:04:200:04:23

"and I haven't got anything." said Blue Kangaroo, sadly.

0:04:230:04:27

"Has she been good?" asked Father Christmas.

0:04:270:04:31

"Oh, yes!" said Blue Kangaroo.

0:04:310:04:35

"Then you might just find something in my sack." said Father Christmas.

0:04:350:04:41

"Have a look."

0:04:410:04:43

Blue Kangaroo looked and he found something

0:04:430:04:47

just exactly right.

0:04:470:04:50

Father Christmas wrote a label for Blue Kangaroo,

0:04:500:04:53

so that he could hang his present on the tree.

0:04:530:04:56

Then they had some milk and cookies.

0:04:560:04:58

"Good night, Blue Kangaroo." said Father Christmas.

0:04:580:05:03

"Lily is a lucky girl,

0:05:030:05:05

"to have such a good kangaroo as you."

0:05:050:05:09

In the morning, Lily ran downstairs with Blue Kangaroo.

0:05:090:05:13

She found that there were three stockings

0:05:130:05:16

hanging on the mantelpiece.

0:05:160:05:19

"Look!" said Lily.

0:05:190:05:21

"It says, just for you,

0:05:210:05:23

"my good friend, Blue Kangaroo,

0:05:230:05:26

"from Father Christmas.

0:05:260:05:27

"How did that happen?" she asked.

0:05:270:05:30

Then Lily noticed something else.

0:05:300:05:34

"Look!" she said.

0:05:340:05:36

"A little blue heart on the Christmas tree.

0:05:360:05:38

"That wasn't there yesterday.

0:05:380:05:40

"Who can it be for?"

0:05:400:05:43

The little blue heart had a ribbon,

0:05:430:05:45

with a tiny Christmas card tied onto it.

0:05:450:05:48

Lily read the message out loud.

0:05:480:05:51

It said, "Just for you, Lily.

0:05:510:05:54

"With love from Blue Kangaroo.

0:05:540:05:58

"Oh, Blue Kangaroo!" whispered Lily,

0:05:580:06:02

hugging him tight.

0:06:020:06:04

"Just for me, from you!"

0:06:040:06:07

"Yes," thought Blue Kangaroo, happily.

0:06:070:06:10

"Just for you, Lily.

0:06:100:06:12

"Merry Christmas."

0:06:120:06:14

That story was called Merry Christmas, Blue Kangaroo!

0:06:150:06:19

I felt really happy when Lily got her present from Blue Kangaroo.

0:06:190:06:24

Did you?

0:06:240:06:25

Now it's time for you to snuggle down under your cosy bed covers

0:06:250:06:29

and have sweet, Christmassy dreams.

0:06:290:06:33

Night, night.
