CBeebies Bedtime Story. | 0:22:03 | 0:22:05 | |
Hello, I'm Charlie. Are you almost ready for a bedtime story? | 0:22:07 | 0:22:12 | |
Well, that's good. Because tonight's story is one of my favourites. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:17 | |
It's called The Crocodile Who Didn't Like Water | 0:22:17 | 0:22:20 | |
and it's by Gemma Merino. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:22 | |
Once upon a time, there was a little crocodile. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:26 | |
And this little crocodile didn't like water. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:30 | |
He longed to play with his brothers and sisters, | 0:22:30 | 0:22:33 | |
but they were far too busy with swim club. | 0:22:33 | 0:22:35 | |
And this little crocodile didn't like swim club. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:39 | |
What he really liked was climbing trees. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:42 | |
But, nobody else did. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:46 | |
It was lonely having nobody to play with. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:50 | |
So, the little crocodile made a decision. | 0:22:50 | 0:22:54 | |
He had saved up his money from the tooth fairy | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
and he knew exactly what to buy with it. | 0:22:57 | 0:22:59 | |
The next afternoon, he took his new rubber ring over to the water. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:06 | |
Today, he would play with his brothers and sisters! | 0:23:06 | 0:23:09 | |
But, he couldn't play ball... | 0:23:09 | 0:23:11 | |
..or swim underwater. | 0:23:13 | 0:23:14 | |
And, although climbing the ladder was fun, | 0:23:16 | 0:23:19 | |
he just didn't want to jump! | 0:23:19 | 0:23:21 | |
But, he didn't want to be alone. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:24 | |
So, he decided to try one last time. | 0:23:24 | 0:23:29 | |
One... | 0:23:29 | 0:23:30 | |
two... | 0:23:30 | 0:23:32 | |
two and a half... | 0:23:32 | 0:23:34 | |
three! | 0:23:34 | 0:23:35 | |
SPLASH! | 0:23:35 | 0:23:37 | |
Glug! Help! | 0:23:38 | 0:23:40 | |
This little crocodile definitely hated water! | 0:23:41 | 0:23:45 | |
It was cold, it was wet, and it was embarrassing. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:50 | |
But then, something strange happened. | 0:23:51 | 0:23:54 | |
His nose began to tickle. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
And the tickle grew... | 0:23:58 | 0:24:00 | |
and grew... | 0:24:00 | 0:24:01 | |
and grew... | 0:24:01 | 0:24:04 | |
until... | 0:24:04 | 0:24:05 | |
AAAACH OOOO! | 0:24:05 | 0:24:07 | |
This little crocodile didn't like water | 0:24:10 | 0:24:12 | |
because he wasn't a crocodile at all. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:15 | |
He was a dragon! | 0:24:15 | 0:24:18 | |
And this little dragon wasn't born to swim. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:22 | |
He was born to breathe fire. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:24 | |
And he was born to fly. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:28 | |
That story was called The Crocodile Who Didn't Like Water. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:37 | |
I'm glad that our friend found out who he really was. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:40 | |
Dragons aren't very good at swimming. | 0:24:40 | 0:24:42 | |
But, they are excellent at flying. | 0:24:42 | 0:24:45 | |
Now, it's time for you to get tucked up in bed. | 0:24:45 | 0:24:48 | |
Perhaps you'll dream about soaring through the sky, | 0:24:48 | 0:24:51 | |
just like our dragon friend. | 0:24:51 | 0:24:53 | |
I hope you sleep well. | 0:24:53 | 0:24:54 | |
I'll see you again soon for another bedtime story. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:58 |
