0:00:06 > 0:00:08What are you doing, Big Teddy?
0:00:08 > 0:00:10Oh, hello, I'm Sophie.
0:00:10 > 0:00:11Big Teddy was telling me
0:00:11 > 0:00:15he wants to be the cleverest teddy in the whole world.
0:00:15 > 0:00:18To help him, he's decided to read all of these books.
0:00:18 > 0:00:20You better get reading, Teddy.
0:00:20 > 0:00:23There's a very clever baby in tonight's bedtime story.
0:00:23 > 0:00:28It's called Baby Brains and it's written by Simon James.
0:00:28 > 0:00:33In the months before Baby Brains was born, Mrs Brains was very busy.
0:00:33 > 0:00:37She read out loud every night to the baby inside her tummy.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40She played music and languages on headphones
0:00:40 > 0:00:41to her baby during the day.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44Mr and Mrs Brains wanted to make sure
0:00:44 > 0:00:47their baby was going to be very clever.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50They even turned up the television when the news came on.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54Mr and Mrs Brains were very excited when their baby was born.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56It was a boy.
0:00:56 > 0:01:00"Our very own Baby Brains!" said Mr Brains proudly.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02When they brought him home,
0:01:02 > 0:01:05Mrs Brains laid him down in the brand-new cot.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08"Sleep tight, Baby Brains," she whispered.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12The next morning, Mrs Brains was going to get breakfast
0:01:12 > 0:01:15when she heard strange noises in the living room.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18Mrs Brains opened the door to see her baby sitting on the sofa,
0:01:18 > 0:01:20reading the morning paper.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24By the afternoon, Baby Brains was helping to mend the car.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27"We've certainly got a bright one here," said Mr Brains.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31That evening, Baby Brains spoke his first words.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34"I'd like to go to school tomorrow," he said.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37The next day, Baby Brains visited the local school.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41He sat down with the children and answered all the questions.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43The children were amazed.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47At the end of the afternoon, the teacher thanked Baby Brains.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51"I don't think I've ever learned so much in one day," she said.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53On the way home, Baby Brains said
0:01:53 > 0:01:56he wanted to go to university and study medicine.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58After just two weeks,
0:01:58 > 0:02:01Baby Brains began working as a doctor at the local hospital.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05He was very popular with all the staff and patients.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Word soon spread about the extraordinary Baby Brains.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Everyone wanted to meet him.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13One night, some space scientists phoned.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17They asked if Baby Brains would help with their next space mission.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20The next day, Mr and Mrs Brains and their baby
0:02:20 > 0:02:22travelled to the space centre.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24After training hard over the weekend,
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Baby Brains waved goodbye to Mr and Mrs Brains
0:02:27 > 0:02:29and blasted off into outer space.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32Everyone in the world held their breath
0:02:32 > 0:02:35as they watched Baby Brains take his first spacewalk.
0:02:35 > 0:02:39"Tell us how you feel," radioed ground control.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43Baby Brains looked up at the vast starlit sky above him.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46He looked down at the vast starlit sky below him.
0:02:46 > 0:02:51He looked at the whole world in front of him and mumbled something.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54"We can't quite hear you," radioed ground control,
0:02:54 > 0:02:56"Could you repeat that?"
0:02:56 > 0:02:59"I want my mummy!" wailed Baby Brains.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03"That's enough," Mrs Brains yelled to the space controller,
0:03:03 > 0:03:05"bring my baby home right now!"
0:03:05 > 0:03:08Baby Brains was flown home as quickly as possible.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11He felt embarrassed as he stepped down from the hatch.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14Through the photographers and cameramen,
0:03:14 > 0:03:16Mrs Brains came running.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19"Our beautiful little baby," sighed Mrs Brains,
0:03:19 > 0:03:21as she lifted him into the air.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24"Our brave little baby," said Mr Brains.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27"Can we go home?" said Baby Brains.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30At home, Mrs Brains gave Baby Brains a warm bath,
0:03:30 > 0:03:32which made him feel a lot better.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35Mr Brains tickled him, which made him laugh.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38And then Mrs Brains sang Baby Brains to sleep.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42Then they gently laid him down in the brand-new cot.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45It was good to have their baby home again.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48"Our very own Baby Brains," whispered Mrs Brains.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52From that day on, Baby Brains spent most of his time at home
0:03:52 > 0:03:55doing things that most babies do.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57Except, that is, at weekends,
0:03:57 > 0:04:01when he still liked to help out at the local hospital.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04That story was called Baby Brains. I hope you enjoyed it.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06It's time to get ready for bed now,
0:04:06 > 0:04:11and I'll see you soon for another bedtime story. Night-night.
