Hello. My name is Floella, and I've nearly finished my knitting.

0:00:070:00:14

Do you know what it is? I'll give you a clue.

0:00:140:00:18

It'll keep you warm on a cold day.

0:00:180:00:22

Have you guessed it yet?

0:00:220:00:24

Yes, it's a blanket for Teddy.

0:00:240:00:28

What do you think, Teddy?

0:00:280:00:30

Well, in tonight's Bedtime Story,

0:00:300:00:33

there's a bear who gets a lovely woolly present.

0:00:330:00:37

The story is by David Melling

0:00:370:00:40

and it's called Don't Worry, Hugless Douglas.

0:00:400:00:44

'Douglas and his dad were playing.

0:00:440:00:48

"What's behind your back?" asked Douglas.

0:00:480:00:52

"Not that hand, the other one."

0:00:520:00:55

'Dad smiled. "Something for you."

0:00:550:01:00

'It was a new woolly hat.

0:01:000:01:03

"Whoa!" said Douglas, "Thanks, Dad."

0:01:030:01:08

'Douglas had never had a woolly hat before.

0:01:080:01:11

'He couldn't wait to show it to his friends.

0:01:110:01:13

"Look after it!" said Dad, but Douglas was off already.

0:01:130:01:19

"Look at me!" shouted Douglas.

0:01:200:01:24

"Mmm, snazzy hat, Douglas," baa'ed the sheep.

0:01:240:01:29

"I can even do cartwheels in it!" he whooped. "Whoo!"

0:01:290:01:33

'And he did it again and again and again...

0:01:330:01:38

'until something didn't quite feel right.

0:01:380:01:43

'Douglas gasped.

0:01:430:01:45

'His new woolly hat had turned into

0:01:450:01:48

'one long string of...

0:01:480:01:52

'spaghetti!

0:01:520:01:54

"Ooh! That's not supposed to happen!" he gulped.

0:01:540:02:00

"Don't worry, Douglas," said the sheep. "We'll fix it."

0:02:000:02:06

'They wound it into a ball and squashed it back into shape.

0:02:060:02:13

"Any good?" they asked. "No!" said Douglas.

0:02:130:02:19

"Oh, Cow is a good thinker," said the sheep.

0:02:190:02:25

"She'll know what to do."

0:02:250:02:28

"Hmm," Cow thought. She had a very good idea.

0:02:280:02:34

"Mmm, pretty!" she said.

0:02:340:02:38

"No," said Douglas.

0:02:380:02:41

"Don't worry, Douglas," chirped a swoopy bird,

0:02:410:02:45

"I can use this for my nest."

0:02:450:02:48

"No, you can't! That's my new woolly hat!"

0:02:480:02:54

"Hmm, doesn't look like a woolly hat," said the swoopy bird.

0:02:540:02:59

"Anyway," he puffed, "it doesn't fit."

0:02:590:03:02

'And he dropped it out of the tree.

0:03:020:03:05

'Just then, it began to rain.

0:03:050:03:09

'Douglas was really worried now.

0:03:090:03:12

"What's my dad going to say?"

0:03:120:03:17

'Rabbit popped up. "Hmm, thanks, Douglas.

0:03:170:03:21

"Just what I need to plug the hole in my burrow."

0:03:210:03:25

"That's my new woolly hat!

0:03:250:03:28

"My dad gave it to me!"

0:03:280:03:32

"Sorry," said Rabbit. "I didn't know.

0:03:320:03:36

"Hmm, come here," she said.

0:03:360:03:38

'And she wiped his nose.

0:03:380:03:40

"What am I going to do?" sniffed Douglas.

0:03:420:03:46

'Rabbit looked thoughtful.

0:03:460:03:49

"Why don't you just tell your dad what happened?

0:03:490:03:52

"He's nice, your dad. He'll understand."

0:03:520:03:56

'Maybe Rabbit was right.

0:03:570:04:00

'Douglas picked up his wet spaghetti hat and trudged back home.

0:04:000:04:07

"Oh, Douglas, look at you.

0:04:070:04:12

"Where's your new hat?" asked his dad.

0:04:130:04:16

'Douglas told them everything.

0:04:160:04:19

"Hmm, don't worry, Douglas," said his dad.

0:04:190:04:23

"I've got something for you.

0:04:230:04:26

"Guess which hand." Douglas wasn't sure.

0:04:260:04:31

"Ha-ha-ha, here's my hat," laughed Dad.

0:04:320:04:37

"You'll soon grow into it."

0:04:370:04:40

That story was called Don't Worry, Hugless Douglas.

0:04:410:04:46

So, there are lots of different things you can do

0:04:460:04:50

with a ball of wool.

0:04:500:04:53

And I think I like the idea of knitting a nice woolly hat too.

0:04:530:04:58

While I start that, I think it's time for you to go off to bed

0:04:580:05:02

to be warm and cosy, and I'll see you soon for another story.

0:05:020:05:06

Night-night. Sweet dreams.
