So, you've got four paws - one, two, three, four... | 0:10:06 | 0:10:10 | |
And a furry grey coat. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:13 | |
Let's have a look in my book... | 0:10:15 | 0:10:17 | |
Oh, hello. I'm Anna. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
Do you know what kind of animal this is? | 0:10:20 | 0:10:23 | |
I'm just trying to find out. Let's have a look... | 0:10:23 | 0:10:26 | |
Hmm, it's got four paws, two ears, a tail, | 0:10:26 | 0:10:31 | |
and a very pointy nose. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:33 | |
I can't quite find anything like it in my animal book. | 0:10:33 | 0:10:37 | |
Millicent, in tonight's bedtime story finds an unusual animal. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:45 | |
The story is by Richard Byrne and it's called Millicent And Meer. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:50 | |
One Saturday, Millicent was busy making sandcastles | 0:10:50 | 0:10:54 | |
in the garden when... BUMP! | 0:10:54 | 0:10:56 | |
..a big wooden box landed beside her. | 0:10:56 | 0:11:00 | |
"Ouch!" said the big wooden box. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:02 | |
Millicent peeped under the lid. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:06 | |
A dazed looking creature sat inside. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:08 | |
"Hello in there. Are you OK?" asked Millicent. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:13 | |
"Oh, I think so," replied the creature, rubbing its head. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:19 | |
"But I've got no idea who I am or how I got here." | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
Millicent giggled. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:23 | |
"You're funny. Perhaps I can help." | 0:11:23 | 0:11:26 | |
Millicent spotted a label on the big wooden box - | 0:11:27 | 0:11:31 | |
"Me-ee-ee-rr.... | 0:11:31 | 0:11:35 | |
"kk-kat." | 0:11:35 | 0:11:37 | |
"Mystery solved," said Millicent. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:41 | |
"You're a cat and you're name is Meer. Yipee! | 0:11:41 | 0:11:44 | |
"I've always wanted a cat! | 0:11:44 | 0:11:46 | |
"You can be MY cat!" She took Meer indoors. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:50 | |
Millicent loved her new cat. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:53 | |
But he did do some very uncatty things. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:58 | |
And some very naughty things, too. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:00 | |
Millicent's dad got crosser and crosser. | 0:12:00 | 0:12:03 | |
"Right, that's it," he said. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:05 | |
"Meer will have to go outside until he can learn to behave | 0:12:05 | 0:12:09 | |
"like a proper cat!" | 0:12:09 | 0:12:11 | |
Millicent didn't like putting Meer outside | 0:12:11 | 0:12:14 | |
and Meer certainly didn't like being outside. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
Poor Meer. He'd been sitting all alone for some time when... | 0:12:17 | 0:12:22 | |
a stray cat came strolling past. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:24 | |
"Hey, why the sad face?" he asked. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
"I have to stay outside until I can learn to behave like a proper cat." | 0:12:28 | 0:12:33 | |
"Well, old chap. You don't look like much of a cat to me. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:37 | |
"But today's your lucky day! | 0:12:37 | 0:12:39 | |
"Marvin's the name and being a cat is my game. Just follow me." | 0:12:39 | 0:12:43 | |
Being a proper cat was a little tricky at first. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:47 | |
But Meer soon got the hang of it. | 0:12:47 | 0:12:49 | |
MARVIN PURRS Then... | 0:12:49 | 0:12:51 | |
Woof! | 0:12:51 | 0:12:53 | |
"Dog! Quick, run!" cried Marvin. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
Meer wasn't sure what a dog was | 0:12:55 | 0:12:57 | |
but he was sure he didn't want to find out. | 0:12:57 | 0:13:00 | |
Marvin and Meer ran and ran until... | 0:13:00 | 0:13:03 | |
something caught Meer's eye. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:06 | |
"Come and see the meerkats at Steve's safari park." | 0:13:07 | 0:13:12 | |
"Nice move, Meer," said Marvin. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:14 | |
"We've lost him. Now that was clever. | 0:13:14 | 0:13:17 | |
"Even if you're NOT a cat." | 0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | |
"I'm not a cat?" replied Meer. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:22 | |
"No. Look! | 0:13:23 | 0:13:25 | |
"You're a meer-kat!" | 0:13:25 | 0:13:27 | |
Marvin and Meer showed Millicent what they had discovered. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:33 | |
"So Meer isn't a cat doing naughty things, | 0:13:33 | 0:13:37 | |
"he's just a meerkat doing meerkat things," said Millicent. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:42 | |
"That explains everything," said Dad. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:45 | |
"But it's not fair to keep Meer here. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:49 | |
"He belongs at the safari park with the rest of his family." | 0:13:49 | 0:13:53 | |
Later that day, a van arrived to take Meer back to his family. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:57 | |
Millicent and Marvin waved goodbye. | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
They were really going to miss Meer. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
"Are you going home to your family, too, Marvin?" asked Millicent. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:08 | |
"I don't have a home. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:10 | |
"Or a family," sighed Marvin sadly. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:14 | |
"Yipee!" said Millicent. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:16 | |
"I've always wanted a cat. YOU can be MY cat!" | 0:14:16 | 0:14:21 | |
She took Marvin indoors. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:23 | |
Millicent and Marvin did lots of fun things together. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:27 | |
Millicent loved her new pet and Marvin loved his new home. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:31 | |
But best of all, every weekend, they went to the safari park | 0:14:31 | 0:14:36 | |
and did lots of meerkat things with Meer and his family. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:40 | |
And that story was called Millicent And Meer. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:44 | |
So that's what you are! | 0:14:45 | 0:14:47 | |
You're a meerkat. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:48 | |
I'm so glad I know now so we can plan lots of adventures together. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:52 | |
Just like Millicent, Marvin and Meer. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:55 | |
But now it's time for you to go to bed | 0:14:56 | 0:14:59 | |
and I'll see you soon for another bedtime story. Night-night! | 0:14:59 | 0:15:03 | |
Now, then, let's have a drink of juice | 0:15:03 | 0:15:06 | |
while I work out what we can do tomorrow... | 0:15:06 | 0:15:09 | |
Mmm! | 0:15:09 | 0:15:11 | |
