Click Clack Moo Cows That Type CBeebies Bedtime Stories

.

-CLICK! CLACK!

-Hello, I'm Matt.

Can you hear that sound?

I don't know where it's coming from. It's not a normal farm sound.

Course on a farm, you'd expect to hear cows that moo, sheep that baa

and dogs that woof.

But that just isn't a normal farm sound.

Well, maybe Farmer Brown in tonight's bedtime story can help.

The story is called Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type.

Farmer Brown has a problem.

His cows like to type.

All day long, he hears click, clack, moo.

Click, clack, moo. Clickety, clack, moo.

At first, he couldn't believe his ears.

"Cows that type? Impossible!"

Click, clack, moo. Click, clack, moo. Clickety, clack, moo!

Then he couldn't believe his eyes.

"Dear Farmer Brown,

"the barn is very cold at night. We'd like some electric blankets.

"Sincerely, the cows."

It was bad enough the cows found the typewriter in the barn,

but now they wanted electric blankets!

"No way!" said Farmer Brown.

"No electric blankets."

So the cows went on strike.

They left a note on the barn door.

"No milk today?!" cried Farmer Brown.

He heard the cows busy at work.

Click, clack, moo. Clickety, clack, moo.

The next day, he got another note.

"Dear Farmer Brown,

"the hens are cold, too.

"They'd like electric blankets.

"Sincerely, the cows."

The cows were growing impatient with the farmer.

They left a new note on the barn door.

"Closed. No milk. No eggs."

"No eggs?!" cried Farmer Brown.

In the background, he heard them.

Click, clack, moo. Click, clack, moo. Clickety, clack, moo.

"Cows that type!

"Hens on strike!

"Whoever heard of such a thing?

"How can I run a farm with no milk and no eggs?"

Farmer Brown was furious.

Farmer Brown got his own typewriter.

"Dear cows and hens.

"There will no electric blankets.

"You are cows and hens.

"I demand milk and eggs.

"Sincerely, Farmer Brown."

Duck was a neutral party,

so he brought the ultimatum to the cows.

The cows had an emergency meeting.

All the animals gathered around the barn to snoop.

But none of them could understand "moo".

All night long, Farmer Brown waited for an answer.

Duck knocked on the door early the next morning.

He handed Farmer Brown a note.

Farmer Brown decided this was a good deal.

He left the blankets next to the barn door

and waited for Duck to come with the typewriter.

The next morning, he got a note.

"Dear Farmer Brown,

"the pond is quite boring.

"We'd like a diving board, sincerely, the ducks."

Click, clack, quack. Click, clack, quack. Clickety, clack, quack.

Well, that story was called Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type.

Ah! So that's what that sound is.

It's somebody using a typewriter.

But who could be using a typewriter around here?

Oh, what's this?

"Dear Matt,

"the grass is very boring.

"We'd like pizza tonight. Sincerely, the sheep."

Ha! Who gave the sheep a typewriter? Goodness me!

I'll see you soon for another story. Night-night.

Now, come here with that typewriter, you lot!
