Hiya. Are you almost ready for bed?

0:00:070:00:09

I'm Ore and I'm going to read you one of my favourite stories

0:00:090:00:12

before you snuggle up for the night.

0:00:120:00:15

It's called Footballer Fat Puss

0:00:150:00:18

and it's by Harriet Castor

0:00:180:00:20

and is illustrated by Colin West.

0:00:200:00:22

One morning, Terence Mouse visited Fat Puss.

0:00:220:00:26

Terence looked rather worried.

0:00:260:00:29

"What's the matter?" asked Fat Puss.

0:00:290:00:33

"Well," said Terence,

0:00:330:00:34

"we are supposed to be playing a football match tomorrow,

0:00:340:00:38

"with the rabbit family.

0:00:380:00:40

"But we need five players and there are only four of us.

0:00:400:00:44

"Would you play with us?"

0:00:450:00:48

"Of course," replied Fat Puss.

0:00:480:00:50

Terence looked relieved.

0:00:500:00:52

"But I've never played in a football match before."

0:00:530:00:56

"That doesn't matter," said Terence,

0:00:560:00:59

"we've got all day to teach you."

0:00:590:01:01

So, for the rest of the day,

0:01:010:01:04

the Mouse family taught Fat Puss to play football.

0:01:040:01:08

Robert and Charlotte helped him to practise

0:01:080:01:11

running as fast as he could.

0:01:110:01:12

Jessica taught him how to kick a ball.

0:01:120:01:15

And Terence explained the rules of the game to him.

0:01:170:01:20

That evening, Fat Puss felt very tired

0:01:200:01:24

and a little nervous about the match.

0:01:240:01:27

The next morning, the Mouse family went to see Fat Puss,

0:01:270:01:31

who was looking rather upset.

0:01:310:01:33

"Are you all right, Fat Puss?" asked Terence.

0:01:340:01:37

"No," sobbed Fat Puss.

0:01:380:01:41

"Because of all of that training yesterday,

0:01:410:01:44

"I feel stiff all over and I can hardly walk -

0:01:440:01:48

"let alone run!"

0:01:480:01:49

"Oh, no!" said Jessica.

0:01:500:01:53

"What shall we do?"

0:01:530:01:55

"I'm so sorry that I've let everyone down," said Fat Puss.

0:01:560:02:01

"But you haven't!" exclaimed Terence.

0:02:010:02:04

"I've had an idea! I don't know why we didn't think of it before.

0:02:050:02:10

"Why don't we let Fat Puss be the goalkeeper?

0:02:100:02:13

"He's so big that he won't have to move around very much."

0:02:130:02:18

"That's a wonderful idea," said Jessica.

0:02:180:02:22

So, the mice helped Fat Puss to get to the football match.

0:02:220:02:26

And when it started, he stood in the goal.

0:02:260:02:30

He found that he didn't need to move at all,

0:02:300:02:33

because the ball simply bounced off his tummy!

0:02:330:02:36

MATCH WHISTLE BLOWS

0:02:370:02:39

After the match, all the mice hugged Fat Puss.

0:02:390:02:42

"You were so good," said Terence,

0:02:440:02:47

"that we've decided to make you a permanent member of the team."

0:02:470:02:52

"Oh, thank you!" said Fat Puss.

0:02:520:02:56

He was proud to be in the team

0:02:560:02:59

and very happy that he hadn't let his friends down after all.

0:02:590:03:03

The Fat Puss stories were one of my favourites when I was young.

0:03:050:03:09

Me, Kitty and the mice are going to have a kickabout of our own.

0:03:090:03:13

I hope you enjoyed that tale. Night-night.

0:03:130:03:15

Right, you two go in defence...
