0:15:50 > 0:15:57.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13Oh, hello. I'm Floella and I'm having a nice cup of tea.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16Then, I can make myself comfy on the sofa
0:16:16 > 0:16:20ready to tell you tonight's bedtime story.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23The story is by Janet Bingham and Rosalind Beardshaw
0:16:23 > 0:16:27and it's called Night, Light, Sleep Tight.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31Jack was trying to fall asleep.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33He closed one eye.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Then, the other.
0:16:36 > 0:16:40He put his head under his wing and took it out again.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42Nothing worked!
0:16:42 > 0:16:46The night was dark and Jack was scared of the dark.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49"Oh, dear", he sighed.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53"Night time is so dark and scary."
0:16:53 > 0:16:56"I wish it was light time."
0:16:56 > 0:17:00"Woo-hoo," hooted a merry voice.
0:17:00 > 0:17:04Jack jumped, "Oh, who's there?" quacked Jack.
0:17:04 > 0:17:08"Ooh, it's me Olivia," said a very small owl.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11"Shouldn't you be asleep?" said Jack.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14"Ooh, not me," hooted Olivia.
0:17:14 > 0:17:19"My family sleep in the light time. Do you want to play with me?"
0:17:19 > 0:17:22"I will in the morning," said Jack.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25"But I'm trying to go to sleep now."
0:17:25 > 0:17:28"Then, I'll help you," said Olivia.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30"I'll sing you to sleep."
0:17:30 > 0:17:34She hooted a gentle lullaby.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38SHE HOOTS
0:17:42 > 0:17:46Very soon, Jack's eyes began to close.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49He fell fast asleep.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53When Jack woke up, it was starting to get light.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56"Hello," whispered Olivia.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00But she didn't sound very cheerful now.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02"What's the matter?" quacked Jack.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06"Ooh, I'm scared," said Olivia.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09"I've never been out in the light time before."
0:18:09 > 0:18:14"Everything looks different and the hot sun is coming."
0:18:14 > 0:18:18"Well, there's no need to be afraid of the sun," said Jack.
0:18:18 > 0:18:23The sky was turning pink and gold.
0:18:23 > 0:18:28"Ooh," said Olivia, "It's pretty."
0:18:28 > 0:18:33"Oh, don't look right at the sun. It might hurt your eyes."
0:18:33 > 0:18:35"But it feels nice on your feathers,"
0:18:35 > 0:18:38said Jack as the sun appeared.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42"It's not too hot after all," said Olivia.
0:18:42 > 0:18:46"Look at all the bright colours everywhere!"
0:18:46 > 0:18:52"Come on," said Jack. "There's lots to see in the light time."
0:18:52 > 0:18:56Jack lead the way up the path and Olivia followed.
0:18:56 > 0:19:02Suddenly she cried, "Ooh, ooh, there's something stuck to my feet."
0:19:02 > 0:19:05"That's your shadow shape," explained Jack.
0:19:05 > 0:19:09"Look. You can make it small like an egg"
0:19:09 > 0:19:14"or tall like a grown up," giggled Olivia.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17"See how big we are. Let's race."
0:19:17 > 0:19:23And off they ran chasing their shadows in the sunshine.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Later on, Jack went swimming.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29Olivia watched him ducking and bobbing on the pond.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31She dipped her toe in the water.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34"Ooh, I wish I could swim," she said.
0:19:34 > 0:19:38"I wish I could climb trees," laughed Jack.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Just then, a flock of geese flew overhead.
0:19:41 > 0:19:47"Well, imagine," whispered Jack
0:19:47 > 0:19:54"One day," sighed Olivia, "we'll be able to fly."
0:19:54 > 0:19:56At last, Olivia yawned.
0:19:56 > 0:20:01"Ooh, I'm ready to go to sleep now," she said.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04A blackbird was singing nearby.
0:20:04 > 0:20:11"Let's join in," said Jack and they hooted and quacked all the way home.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
0:20:14 > 0:20:18Quack quack. Quack. Quack quack.
0:20:18 > 0:20:22Back at the nest, Olivia started to hop up to bed.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26"Light, light," she murmured sleepily.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29"Light, light," replied Jack.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31"Sleep tight."
0:20:31 > 0:20:35That evening, Jack stayed awake and watched the sunset.
0:20:35 > 0:20:40Olivia came out of her nest. She scooted down through the branches.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42"Woo-hoo," she hooted.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44But Jack looked worried.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47"What's the matter?" asked Olivia.
0:20:47 > 0:20:51"I'm still a little scared," said Jack.
0:20:51 > 0:20:56"The sun has gone and it's getting cold and dark."
0:20:56 > 0:21:00"Ooh, there's no need to be afraid of the dark," said Olivia.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03"Come and see the moon."
0:21:03 > 0:21:06Olivia stayed with Jack as the moon came up.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08They watched it brighten.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10The stars began to sparkle.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14Fireflies danced over the moonlit water.
0:21:14 > 0:21:19"Ooh, I didn't know that night time was so full of lights," said Jack.
0:21:19 > 0:21:24"Ooh, look at the shapes in the stars," said Olivia.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26"There's a duck."
0:21:26 > 0:21:30"And there's an owl," laughed Jack.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33After a while, Jack started to yawn.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37"I'm ready to go to sleep now," he said.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Jack snuggled down in his nest.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44"Thank you for showing me the moon," he said.
0:21:44 > 0:21:48"I'm not frightened of night time any more."
0:21:48 > 0:21:54"And I'm not frightened of light time," hooted Olivia.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56"Thank you for being my friend."
0:21:57 > 0:22:01"Night, light," said Jack with a sleepy smile.
0:22:01 > 0:22:08"Night, light," laughed Olivia. "Sleep tight."
0:22:10 > 0:22:13That story was called Night, Light, Sleep Tight.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16It's time for me to say that to you too.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19Night, light, sleep tight.
0:22:19 > 0:22:22I'll see you another time for another story.
