Ooh, that's better. A nice cosy cup of tea.

0:00:060:00:10

Oh, hello!

0:00:100:00:11

My name's Jonas. I'm trying to get nice and cosy for tonight's story.

0:00:110:00:16

So I thought a warm mug of tea would help.

0:00:160:00:19

Are you nice and cosy and ready for bed?

0:00:190:00:22

It's a bit cold in tonight's bedtime story,

0:00:220:00:25

so I'm glad we're wrapped up, indoors.

0:00:250:00:28

This story is by Debi Gliori and it's called, Mr Bear To The Rescue

0:00:280:00:33

It was a wild and windy night in the forest.

0:00:350:00:38

A night where the best place to be was indoors,

0:00:380:00:41

snug and warm, with windows and doors shut to keep the weather out.

0:00:410:00:45

Mr Bear was tucked up in bed, listening to the wind howling.

0:00:450:00:50

"Did you hear that?" said Mrs Bear.

0:00:500:00:54

"It sounded like someone calling, "Help!""

0:00:540:00:57

"It's just the wind, dear," said Mr Bear.

0:00:570:01:01

"Help!" said a small voice.

0:01:010:01:04

"There!" said Mrs Bear.

0:01:040:01:06

"I did hear something. Go and see who it is, dear."

0:01:060:01:10

Mr Bear went downstairs and opened the front door.

0:01:120:01:16

"Please help!" said a very small voice,

0:01:160:01:20

from somewhere around Mr Bear's ankles

0:01:200:01:23

and clinging on to the doorstep was Mr Rabbit Bun.

0:01:230:01:26

"Our warren collapsed!" he wailed.

0:01:260:01:28

"The Hoot-Toowits' nest blew away, the Buzzies' hive is ruined,

0:01:280:01:32

"and we can't find baby Flora!"

0:01:320:01:35

Then Mr Rabbit Bun vanished into the night.

0:01:350:01:38

"Help is on its way!" said Mr Bear, grabbing tools

0:01:380:01:41

and a honey sandwich, just in case.

0:01:410:01:44

"Do be careful, dear," said Mrs Bear.

0:01:440:01:47

"Don't worry," said Mr Bear, as he blew down the garden.

0:01:470:01:51

"I'll be fine."

0:01:510:01:53

It was a long way to the Rabbit Buns' house.

0:01:530:01:56

Mr Bear tripped and stumbled over branches,

0:01:560:01:59

and several times, his lantern nearly blew out.

0:01:590:02:02

"Aaargh!" A tangle of feathers and claws blew into his face.

0:02:020:02:06

"Eek!" squawked Mr Hoot-Toowit.

0:02:060:02:09

"Oh, it's you!" they both cried in unison.

0:02:090:02:13

"I can't see your house anywhere," said Mr Bear, peering into the dark.

0:02:130:02:18

"You're standing in it," said Mr Hoot-Toowit, sadly.

0:02:180:02:22

And there lay the remains of the tree that the Hoot-Toowits

0:02:220:02:26

had shared with the Buzzies and Rabbit Buns.

0:02:260:02:29

"Oh, Mr Bear! Thank heavens you've come!" cried a voice.

0:02:290:02:34

"Please can you help us find Flora?

0:02:340:02:36

"And can you fix our hive?

0:02:360:02:38

"And mend our nest?"

0:02:380:02:40

Mr Bear found himself surrounded by rabbits, owls and bees.

0:02:400:02:44

"Help!" thought Mr Bear. "What on earth am I supposed to do?"

0:02:440:02:50

He scrabbled around in his toolkit and found his honey sandwich.

0:02:500:02:54

A brilliant idea occurred to him.

0:02:540:02:57

"What's that for?" asked one of the small Rabbit Buns.

0:02:570:03:01

"Glue," said Mr Bear, peeling the sandwich apart.

0:03:010:03:07

"Hive glue, in fact.

0:03:070:03:08

"Look, I'll spread a little here and another little dollop, there."

0:03:080:03:13

"And then there'll be a sticky mess," groaned a small Buzz.

0:03:130:03:17

"Oh, dear," said Mr Bear. "Mrs Bear will fix that.

0:03:190:03:23

"She's very good at that sort of thing."

0:03:230:03:26

"And what about my nest?" said Mr Hoot-Toowit?

0:03:260:03:29

"Well, let's see," said Mr Bear, picking it up.

0:03:290:03:33

And then the nest fell apart in his paws.

0:03:330:03:37

"Oh!" Mrs Hoot-Toowit sighed.

0:03:370:03:40

"Er, yes," said Mr Bear. "Mrs Bear will knit you another in no time."

0:03:400:03:46

The animals put the sticky hive and broken nest into Mr Bear's toolkit,

0:03:460:03:51

just as the heavens opened.

0:03:510:03:55

Rain poured down through the trees and the animals ran for shelter.

0:03:550:04:00

Mr Bear's lantern hissed, and then fizzled, and then went out.

0:04:000:04:04

"How will we ever find Flora now?" wailed Mrs Rabbit Bun.

0:04:040:04:09

And Mr Bear anxiously looked up to the sky.

0:04:090:04:12

"Good grief!" he cried. "I've found her!"

0:04:120:04:17

And there, high in the branches of the sheltering tree

0:04:170:04:21

was a tiny rabbit, wrapped in a blanket and fast asleep.

0:04:210:04:25

"I'll just climb up and get her," said Mr Bear.

0:04:250:04:28

"What a hero you are!" sighed Mrs Rabbit Bun.

0:04:280:04:31

But Mr Bear did not feel heroic as he inched up the slippery tree,

0:04:310:04:36

which creaked and groaned with every move.

0:04:360:04:39

At last, he disentangled the blanket, cradled Flora in his arms,

0:04:390:04:44

and "Aaargh!" yelled Mr Bear. "Wee-ee!" said Flora, waking up.

0:04:440:04:50

"Gosh, what a good idea!" said Mr Rabbit Bun,

0:04:500:04:55

as Flora's blanket fanned out into a perfect parachute.

0:04:550:04:59

Mr Bear and the bunny floated safely down to the ground.

0:04:590:05:03

"What a brilliant Mr Bear!" said Mrs Rabbit Bun, hugging his knees.

0:05:030:05:08

Mr Bear re-lit his lantern and loaded his friends into his toolkit.

0:05:080:05:13

"Hold tight!" he said. "I'm taking you home."

0:05:130:05:16

Back through the storm they went until reaching the top of the hill

0:05:160:05:21

and could see Mr Bear's house with lights on.

0:05:210:05:24

"Not far now," he said. "We're nearly there.

0:05:240:05:27

Mrs Bear had been busy organising beds for everyone

0:05:270:05:31

and, when her nettle soup had warmed every tummy, large and small,

0:05:310:05:35

the Bear house filled with snores.

0:05:350:05:38

And then Mr Bear sank into a chair with a groan,

0:05:380:05:41

and Baby Bear clambered onto his tummy.

0:05:410:05:44

"What a brilliant Mr Bear your Daddy is," said Mrs Bear.

0:05:440:05:49

"So good at fixing things."

0:05:490:05:51

HE YAWNS

0:05:510:05:54

Mr Bear gave a huge yawn.

0:05:540:05:57

"In fact," continued Mrs Bear, "I have more things for Daddy to fix.

0:05:570:06:04

"There's the squeaky bathroom door, the blocked sink,

0:06:040:06:08

"and the smokey chimney."

0:06:080:06:10

HE SNORES Mr Bear gave a loud snore.

0:06:100:06:14

"But they can all wait until tomorrow," said Mrs Bear.

0:06:140:06:20

"Even brilliant Mr Bears need a bit of rescuing at times," she said,

0:06:200:06:25

tucking a blanket around Mr Bear and the baby and heading up to bed.

0:06:250:06:29

And that story was called, Mr Bear To The Rescue.

0:06:290:06:33

Mmm, I like the idea of a honey sandwich.

0:06:330:06:38

It'd be just right with my mug of tea.

0:06:380:06:40

In fact, I think I'll just go and find one while you go off to bed.

0:06:400:06:45

And I'll see you soon for another story. Goodnight!
