Mary Anne Hobbs - Doctor Molly's Medicine Case CBeebies Bedtime Stories

Perhaps Dr Molly from tonight's bedtime story can help.

Hello. My name is Mary Anne.

It's lovely to be here in the CBeebies house,

but a few of the toys have told me that they're feeling ill.

Perhaps Dr Molly from tonight's bedtime story can help.

Shall we find out?

This story is called Dr Molly's Medicine Case,

and it's by Miriam Moss and Deborah Allwright.

This is Molly. She loves dressing up.

Today she is going to be Dr Molly.

Here she is in her Doctor's outfit.

There is just one thing missing.

Her medicine case.

But this is no ordinary medicine case. Oh, no.

It's a very special, magical, medicine case.

Inside it has everything Dr Molly needs

to make her patients feel better.

"I wonder who will need my help today."

Knock, knock, knock.

Here comes Polar Bear.

He's been playing in the snow

and now he can't stop sneezing and shivering.

"I don't feel well."

"Oh, dear. Perhaps you've caught a cold," says Molly.

"Don't worry, Bear. You've come to just the right place.

"Let's take a look inside my magic medicine case."

Here's what Molly is looking for.

Dr Molly checks Polar Bear's temperature.

"And here's a nice hot water bottle for you to hug."

"Aah, now I feel much better," says Polar Bear.

Knock, knock, knock.

Crash, bang, ow!

Watch out! Here comes Crocodile.

He's fallen off his skateboard.

"Oh, ouch! I've hurt my tail!"

"Oh, dear. That does look sore," says Molly.

"But don't worry, Croc.

"You've come to just the right place.

"Let's take a look inside my magic medicine case."

Here's what Molly is looking for.

Dr Molly dabs on some soothing cream.

"There. This will take away the stinging.

"Now let's cover your poor tail with a plaster."

"Ooh, I feel much better," says Croc.

Knock, knock, knock.

Cough, splutter, cough.

Here comes Pelican!

He's been out all day and has eaten far too many bony fish.

"Oh. My throat's so sore."

"Poor Pelly. You do sound croaky," says Molly.

"Don't worry, Pelly. You've come to just the right place."

"Let's take a look inside my magic medicine case."

Here's what Molly is looking for.

Dr Molly pours a spoonful of honey.

"The perfect thing for a sore throat.

"One spoonful, two spoonfuls.

"There, that's just enough."

"Mm, thank you, Molly. I feel much better."

Dr Molly has had a very busy day making everyone feel better.

So why have all her patients come back?

"My throat feels much better," says Pelican.

"My tail doesn't hurt any more," says Croc.

"And I've stopped sneezing and shivering," adds Polar Bear.

"But now we've got a funny rumbling in our tummies."

Molly knows exactly what they need.

"Don't worry, everyone.

"You've come to just the right place.

"Let's take a look inside my magic medicine case."

"Yum. This is delicious."

That story was called Dr Molly's Medicine Case.

Clever Dr Molly knew what to do to help all the animals

with their rumbling tummies.

Didn't that picnic look delicious?

It's bedtime now.

I hope you sleep well. Night-night.
