..And an umbrella.

0:26:060:26:08

Oh, hello!

0:26:080:26:10

I'm Fiona. I'm getting ready to go exploring.

0:26:100:26:13

I like exploring. Do you?

0:26:130:26:17

Look, I've got all sorts of things to take on my expedition.

0:26:170:26:21

A lamp, for when it gets a bit dark.

0:26:210:26:24

An umbrella, in case it rains.

0:26:240:26:27

A wooden spoon...

0:26:270:26:29

What? I don't need a wooden spoon!

0:26:290:26:33

Do I?

0:26:330:26:34

What would I use that for?

0:26:340:26:36

Oh, I know. I've got a wooden spoon. Bear suggested I needed it.

0:26:360:26:41

Bear, Wolf, Owl and Pig go on an expedition in tonight's story.

0:26:410:26:49

And they take all sorts of things with them!

0:26:490:26:52

The story is by Norbert Landa and Tim Warnes,

0:26:520:26:56

and is called The Great Monster Hunt.

0:26:560:27:01

Early one morning,

0:27:020:27:04

a funny noise woke up Duck.

0:27:040:27:07

It sounded like... "Pssh. Pssh."

0:27:070:27:12

And it came from right under her bed.

0:27:120:27:15

Duck was not quite sure what it was, and she was much too afraid to look.

0:27:170:27:23

Instead, she jumped out of bed and ran for help.

0:27:230:27:27

"Pig!" Duck yelled.

0:27:270:27:29

"There is something under my bed and it's making strange sounds.

0:27:290:27:33

"It goes, "Pssh, pssh, grrr.""

0:27:330:27:36

"Pssh, pssh, grr?" Asked Pig.

0:27:380:27:42

"Oh, my. We need someone really strong to help.

0:27:420:27:45

"Stay right where you are." And Pig ran to find Bear.

0:27:450:27:50

Pig told Bear all about the frightening noise under Duck's bed.

0:27:500:27:55

"It goes, pssh, pssh, grr, bang bang!

0:27:550:28:00

"I wanted to tell you, Bear, because you are so strong."

0:28:000:28:05

Bear lifted a huge log.

0:28:050:28:08

"It is true I'm strong enough for almost anything," he said.

0:28:100:28:15

"But I think we'd better find someone who's loud enough

0:28:150:28:20

"to chase this thing away."

0:28:200:28:23

So they ran to find Wolf, who was about to start his morning howling.

0:28:230:28:29

Bear told him the dreadful news about the terrifying thing

0:28:290:28:34

under Duck's bed. "It goes, pssh, pssh, grr, bang, bang,

0:28:340:28:40

"pam, pam all of the time!" Bear said.

0:28:400:28:45

"We thought you could help us frighten it away."

0:28:450:28:48

"Oh, yes, I can," Wolf proudly said.

0:28:480:28:53

"There is no match for what I can do. Just listen.

0:28:530:28:57

"Owoo-o-o-o-o-o-o!

0:28:570:29:02

"But maybe we also need help from someone really clever."

0:29:020:29:07

So they ran to find Owl. "Listen," Wolf said.

0:29:070:29:12

"There is a dreadful and terrifying sound under Duck's bed.

0:29:120:29:16

"It goes, pssh, pssh, grrr, bang, bang, pam, pam, grrrowl!"

0:29:160:29:24

Owl was lost for words.

0:29:250:29:27

"We thought you might know what it was," Pig said,

0:29:270:29:32

"because you are so clever."

0:29:320:29:35

Owl said, "Clever, yes. That's what I am."

0:29:350:29:43

"So I can tell you one thing. Duck is in great danger."

0:29:430:29:51

"It must be a monster!" yelled Pig.

0:29:510:29:53

"Oh, what are we going to do?"

0:29:530:29:56

"The only way to deal with a monster," Owl said,

0:29:580:30:03

"is to trap it."

0:30:030:30:05

Clever Owl! So the animals set about gathering

0:30:050:30:09

rope and nets and... useful pokey things.

0:30:090:30:13

then the four of them bravely set off towards Duck's house.

0:30:130:30:18

"Owooooooooo!" Owl led the way,

0:30:180:30:22

because trapping the monster was his clever idea.

0:30:220:30:26

Next came Wolf, howling loudly.

0:30:260:30:29

Then came Bear, with his monster-busting stick.

0:30:290:30:33

Last was Pig, clutching his great monster-catching net.

0:30:330:30:38

Finally, they arrived at Duck's house

0:30:380:30:42

and flattened their ears against the door.

0:30:420:30:45

"Duck? Are you there?" called Wolf.

0:30:450:30:49

Then the door slowly creaked open.

0:30:490:30:54

It was Duck.

0:30:540:30:57

"You're here!" she said.

0:30:580:31:01

"Duck, you are in great danger!" whispered Bear.

0:31:010:31:06

"There is a monster under your bed!" cried Pig.

0:31:060:31:11

Duck looked fit to faint.

0:31:110:31:13

"A monster?" she whimpered.

0:31:130:31:15

"How do you know?"

0:31:150:31:18

"Because it goes pssh, pssh, grrr,

0:31:180:31:22

"bang, bang, pam, pam, grrrowl!" Pig yelled.

0:31:220:31:28

"And owoooooo!" Owl added.

0:31:280:31:32

"Come on, let's get it!"

0:31:320:31:37

And the animals charged into Duck's house.

0:31:370:31:40

Up the stairs they crept.

0:31:400:31:42

Then they heard a sound.

0:31:420:31:45

"Pssh, pssh," it went.

0:31:450:31:49

It came right from under Duck's bed.

0:31:490:31:54

Owl flashed his torch.

0:31:540:31:56

The animals gasped - they could not believe what they saw!

0:31:560:32:01

There, right under Duck's bed,

0:32:010:32:06

was a tiny mouse, snoring softly in its tiny bed.

0:32:060:32:13

"Pssh, pssh."

0:32:150:32:18

"Well, I never!" Duck whispered.

0:32:190:32:22

"Do you know what we've just done?" Owl smiled.

0:32:220:32:26

All feeling rather silly,

0:32:270:32:29

the animals looked at each other and giggled.

0:32:290:32:33

"We've just made a monster out of a mouse."

0:32:330:32:39

That story was called The Great Monster Hunt.

0:32:400:32:45

I'm glad it was just a mouse underneath Duck's bed.

0:32:450:32:49

Weren't you?

0:32:490:32:51

I don't think I need all these things on my expedition.

0:32:520:32:56

I'm sure there are more useful things I can find in the house.

0:32:560:33:00

So, while I put my kit together for tomorrow,

0:33:000:33:04

it's time for you to get some sleep, ready for tomorrow's adventure.

0:33:040:33:09

I'll see you soon for another story.

0:33:090:33:11

Night-night.
