Chris Evans - Goodnight World CBeebies Bedtime Stories

Hello, I'm Chris.

Are you all snuggled up, ready for tonight's Bedtime Story?

Well, that's great because we need to wish everything

in the world around us a good night before we drift off to sleep.

Tonight's Bedtime Story is called Goodnight World,

and it was written and illustrated by Debi Gliori.

Goodnight, planet. Goodnight, world. Peaceful clouds around Earth curled.

Goodnight, ice. Goodnight, snow. Goodnight, lights above aglow.

Goodnight, oceans deep and wide, rocking ships upon the tide.

Goodnight, trucks and cars and planes. Goodnight, rockets.

Goodnight, trains.

Goodnight, birds. Goodnight, bees.

Goodnight, fishes in the seas.

Goodnight, flowers.

Goodnight, grasses curled up tight while darkness passes.

Goodnight, lions, tigers too, and all the animals in the zoo.

Goodnight, shadows in the park. Goodnight, dog that doesn't bark.

Goodnight, houses, nests and burrows.

Goodnight, daylight until tomorrow's.

Goodnight, teddies.

Goodnight, books. Goodnight, sparrows, starlings, rooks.

Goodnight, sounds of distant cars. And in the sky, a million stars.

Goodnight, moon. Goodnight, sun. Goodnight, goodnight to everyone.

All is well in my small world. Around my mother's heart I'm curled.

What a beautiful story.

Now it's time for you to curl up with your loved ones

and drift off to sleep as the world sleeps with you.

I'll see you soon for another Bedtime Story. Sweet dreams.
