Hello, I'm Ben. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:10 | |
Are you ready for tonight's bedtime story? | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
Great. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:14 | |
Ever since I was a little boy, | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |
I've always loved kicking a ball, | 0:00:16 | 0:00:18 | |
and that's what tonight's bedtime story is all about. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:21 | |
Kicking A Ball. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
And it's by Allan Ahlberg with pictures by Sebastien Braun. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:26 | |
What I like best, yes, most of all, | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
in my whole life, is kicking a ball. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:34 | |
Not eating an ice cream, or riding a bike. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
BICYCLE BELL RINGS | 0:00:39 | 0:00:40 | |
No, kicking a ball is what I like. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
Not reading a book, or writing a letter. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:47 | |
No! Kicking a ball is 20 times better. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:51 | |
My legs might be skinny, my feet might be small, | 0:00:53 | 0:00:57 | |
but I get a kick out of kicking a ball. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
Yes, kicking a ball! | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
Kicking a ball with Clive and Trevor, | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
Malcolm and Paul, | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
or even without them, just me and a wall. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:11 | |
DOG BARKS | 0:01:12 | 0:01:14 | |
Not punching a ball, or bashing a ball, | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
serving a ball or smashing a ball. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
Not throwing a ball, or blowing a ball. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:24 | |
Not bowling, or batting, or patting a ball. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
Not pinging or ponging, or potting or putting, | 0:01:27 | 0:01:31 | |
but booting and shooting, | 0:01:31 | 0:01:33 | |
yes, kicking, oh, kicking! | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
Just kicking a ball. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
A ball in the playground, a ball on the grass, | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
a shot on the run, a dribble, a pass, | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
a ball before breakfast, a ball before bed... | 0:01:44 | 0:01:49 | |
HE YAWNS | 0:01:49 | 0:01:50 | |
..a dream of a ball, a goal in the head. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:54 | |
CHEERING | 0:01:54 | 0:01:55 | |
Don't want a ball that's odd or screw, | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
that you hit with a mallet or a billiard cue. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
Don't want a ball that's made of meat. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
I'd really rather SCORE than eat. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
DOG BARKS | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
Not a ballcock or a ballpoint. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
Or a plastic ball-and-socket joint. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
Not a ball bearing - bit too small, | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
but putting it more or less baldly...a ball! | 0:02:19 | 0:02:22 | |
DUCKS QUACK | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
Kicking a ball, kicking a ball - | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
that's surely the purpose of life after all. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:31 | |
Not climbing a mountain in far Nepal, | 0:02:31 | 0:02:35 | |
or diving for pearls in the Bay of Bengal. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:39 | |
Not sailing a yacht on a tight haul, | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
in a sudden squall, to Donegal. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
But kicking a ball, kicking a ball. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:50 | |
Kick, kick, kick, kick... | 0:02:50 | 0:02:55 | |
kicking a ball. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:57 | |
And later on, as the years pass, | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
I'll still be running across the grass. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
Kicking a ball, kicking a ball, | 0:03:04 | 0:03:08 | |
with Clive and Malcolm, Trevor and Paul. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:12 | |
Reading the paper, having a shave, | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
forcing the goalie to make a save. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:21 | |
Kissing my wife, bathing our baby... | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
BABY LAUGHS | 0:03:24 | 0:03:26 | |
..kicking a ball and scoring, maybe. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:29 | |
Till baby toddles and tackles, | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
and then starts the ball rolling all over again. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:37 | |
TODDLER GIGGLES | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
What I like best, yes, most of all | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
in my whole life is kicking a ball. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
In freezing cold or blinding heat, | 0:03:46 | 0:03:50 | |
ever and always, a ball at my feet. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:54 | |
Caked in mud, covered in sweat, | 0:03:54 | 0:03:58 | |
scoring the goals I'll never forget. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:02 | |
CHEERING AND SHOUTING | 0:04:02 | 0:04:03 | |
Yes, life's a circle, endless and small, | 0:04:03 | 0:04:07 | |
and when all's said and done, the world's a ball. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:13 | |
Oh, I had such a ball reading that story, | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
and I hope you had a ball listening. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
Now it's time to get nice and comfortable | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
and curled up into a tiny ball as you get ready to go to sleep. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:25 | |
I'll see you again soon. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:26 | |
Night-night. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:28 | |
