0:15:14 > 0:15:15Oh!

0:15:15 > 0:15:19Oh, my goodness! What a big NOSE you have!

0:15:19 > 0:15:23And what big eyes you have!

0:15:23 > 0:15:24Hello, I'm Sheila.

0:15:24 > 0:15:29I was just looking at Moley the Mole with my magnifying glass.

0:15:29 > 0:15:33When you look through it, it makes things look REALLY big.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35Like Moley's eyes.

0:15:35 > 0:15:40I've got a bedtime story about a mole who can't see things very well.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42The story is called Mole's In Love,

0:15:42 > 0:15:45by David Bedford and Rosalind Beardshaw.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49One bright day,

0:15:49 > 0:15:54Morris the Mole peeped out of his hole to find that it was spring.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57"Yippee!", said Morris.

0:15:57 > 0:16:03Then he hopped down from his hill and went off to find someone to love.

0:16:03 > 0:16:07Morris peered around the farmyard.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09Moles don't see very well.

0:16:09 > 0:16:13But Morris did not think it would be hard to find someone to love

0:16:13 > 0:16:16because he knew just what to look for.

0:16:16 > 0:16:22Shiny black fur, luscious shiny black fur!

0:16:22 > 0:16:27Morris hugged the luscious shiny black fur. He was in LOVE!

0:16:27 > 0:16:29Morris blew his love a kiss,

0:16:29 > 0:16:33but when the luscious shiny black fur blew him a kiss back

0:16:33 > 0:16:35Morris was blown off his feet!

0:16:35 > 0:16:38NEIGHING He landed in a pile of leaves,

0:16:38 > 0:16:41but nobody came to see if he was all right.

0:16:41 > 0:16:45"Ouch!", Morris said to himself, feeling glum.

0:16:46 > 0:16:51Then Morris smelled the first new flowers of spring.

0:16:51 > 0:16:54"Yippee!", he said and skipped out of the leaves

0:16:54 > 0:16:57and went off to find someone else to love.

0:16:58 > 0:17:02A pink nose, pretty pink nose.

0:17:03 > 0:17:08Morris hugged the pretty pink nose for he was in LOVE!

0:17:08 > 0:17:10Morris rubbed noses.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13But when the pretty pink nose rubbed back,

0:17:13 > 0:17:19Morris was sent rolling away - cold and wet and slimy from head to toes!

0:17:19 > 0:17:21SQUEALING He landed in some mud,

0:17:21 > 0:17:24but nobody came to see if he was all right.

0:17:24 > 0:17:29"Ouch!", Morris said to himself, feeling glum.

0:17:29 > 0:17:34Then he heard the happy twitter of birds singing about spring.

0:17:34 > 0:17:38"Yippee!", said Morris and he jumped out of the mud

0:17:38 > 0:17:41and he went to find someone else to love.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44Big wide feet!

0:17:44 > 0:17:47GORGEOUS big wide feet!

0:17:47 > 0:17:52Morris hugged the gorgeous big wide feet, he was in LOVE!

0:17:52 > 0:17:55Morris sat down in the meadow with his love,

0:17:55 > 0:17:58but when the gorgeous big wide feet sat down too

0:17:58 > 0:18:01Morris was choked and tickled by feathers.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04"Achoo! Achoo!", he sneezed, tumbling backwards.

0:18:04 > 0:18:07This time he landed on a sharp thistle,

0:18:07 > 0:18:10but nobody came to see if he was all right.

0:18:10 > 0:18:14"Ouch!", Morris said to himself, feeling glummer than ever.

0:18:14 > 0:18:17"Ouch, ouch, ouch!"

0:18:17 > 0:18:20And even though he knew it was still spring,

0:18:20 > 0:18:24he went back and sat on his molehill.

0:18:24 > 0:18:30Morris said to himself, "It is spring and I'm alone, without love."

0:18:30 > 0:18:35"Shiny black fur was too rough, pretty pink nose was too wet

0:18:35 > 0:18:39"and gorgeous big wide feet made me sneeze.

0:18:39 > 0:18:43"I looked for love and I didn't find it."

0:18:43 > 0:18:47Suddenly, Morris heard a tiny voice.

0:18:47 > 0:18:51It said, "You've not looked hard enough."

0:18:51 > 0:18:55And before he could blink someone gave him a present.

0:18:56 > 0:19:01The present balanced on his nose and wrapped around his ears.

0:19:01 > 0:19:07And when Morris looked through his present he saw very clearly,

0:19:07 > 0:19:12luscious shiny black fur, a pretty pink nose,

0:19:12 > 0:19:16gorgeous big wide feet and best of all -

0:19:16 > 0:19:20twinkly smart spectacles!

0:19:20 > 0:19:24"I'm called Minnie," said the tiny voice, as Morris stared at her.

0:19:24 > 0:19:28"Are you all right?", she asked.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31And Morris said, "Yes, I am!"

0:19:31 > 0:19:37Morris hopped down from his hill, but he wasn't looking for love anymore.

0:19:37 > 0:19:40Love had already found him.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45That story was called Mole's In Love.

0:19:45 > 0:19:51So, all Morris the Mole needed was a pair of spectacles.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55Well, it's time for you to close your eyes, now,

0:19:55 > 0:19:58as it's bedtime and you should be tucked up in bed!

0:19:58 > 0:20:00Night-night, sweet dreams.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04I wonder where moles sleep?
