1
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: Hello friends, and welcome to sleep Tight Stories. I'd like

2
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:32,239
Speaker 1: to say hello to some friends. Hello to Evan and

3
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 1: Josephine Alvarez de par Hello to Stella from Alpharetta, Georgia.

4
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: Hello to Mae Adele from New Hampshire, and to Loo,

5
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 1: to Francis and Louise, thank you so much for supporting

Speaker 1: so much to us. I'd like to say a great,

00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 1: big happy birthday wish to Sola, who is eight years

00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 1: old on September twenty second. Happy birthday to you. I

10
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: hope you have a very special day. Do you like

11
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 1: to listen to everything people tell you to do?

12
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 2: Do you always follow the rules?

13
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 1: This story is about mister and Missus Crane who have

14
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: two baby cranes, and the cranes are tired of always

15
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: listening and always being good, so they decide to go

16
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: out one night and be naughty, but they cannot find

17
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: anything to do. They go here and there and finally

18
00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: end up just coming home. They decide they are happy

19
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:12,239
Speaker 1: just the way they are, the good little cranes who

20
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: were bad. When the sand Hill Cranes were married, they

21
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: began to work for a home of their own, to

22
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:28,239
Speaker 1: be sure they had chosen a place for it beforehand.

23
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 1: Yet there were other things to think about, and some

24
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: of their friends told them it would be very foolish

25
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: to build on the ground. There are so many accidents

26
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: with ground nests. These friends said. There are snakes, you know,

27
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: and rats, and a great many other people whom you

28
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: would not want to have looking in on your children. Besides,

29
00:02:54,840 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: something might fall on it. The young couple talked this

30
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: all over and decided to build in a tree. We

31
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: are not afraid of snakes and rats, they said, but

32
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: we would fear something falling on the nest. They were

33
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: talking to quite an old crane when they said this,

34
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: Do you mean to build in a tree?

35
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 2: He said, my.

36
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: Dear friends, don't do that. Just think a high wind

37
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 1: might blow the nest down and spoil everything. Do whatever

38
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: you wish, but don't build in a tree. Then he

39
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: flew away. Dear me, exclaimed young missus.

40
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 2: Crane.

41
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: One tells me to do this and never to do that.

42
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: Another tells me to do that and never to do this.

43
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 1: I shall just please myself, since I cannot please my friends.

44
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 2: In which place do you choose?

45
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: Asked her husband, who always liked whatever she did. I

46
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 1: shall build on the ground, she said, decidedly. If the

47
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: tree falls, it may hit the nest, and it may not.

48
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,919
Speaker 1: But if we build in the tree and it falls,

49
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 1: we are sure to hit the ground. How wise you are,

50
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: exclaimed her husband. I believe people get in a way

51
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: of building just so and come to think that no

52
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: other way can be right, which shows that mister sand

53
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: Hill Crane was also wise.

54
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 2: Both worked on the nest.

55
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: Bringing roots and dried grasses with which to build it up.

56
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: Sometimes they went to dance with their friends, and when

57
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: they did they bowed most of the time to each other.

58
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: They did not really care very much about going because

59
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 1: they were so interested in the nest. This they had

60
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: to build quite high from the ground on account of

61
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 1: their long legs. If I were a duck, said missus

62
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: Sandhill Crane, it would do very well for me to

63
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: sit on the nest. But with my legs never, I

64
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 1: would as soon sit on two bare branches as to

65
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: have them doubled under me. So she tried the nest

66
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: until it was just as high as her legs were long.

67
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: When it was high enough, she laid in it two

68
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: gray eggs with brown spots.

69
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 2: After that, she.

70
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: Did no more dancing, but stood with a leg on

71
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 1: either side of the nest and her soft body just over.

72
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 2: The eggs to keep them warm.

73
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 1: It was very tiresome work, and sometimes miss mister Crane

74
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: covered the eggs while she was fishing. The cranes were

75
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: always very kind to their wives. This, you know, was

76
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: the first time that either had had a nest, and

77
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: it was all new and wonderful to them. They thought

78
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: that there never had been such a beautiful home. They

79
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 1: often stood on the ground beside it and poked it

80
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 1: this way and that way with their bills, and said

81
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 1: to each other, just look at this fine root that

82
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: I wove in, Or have you noticed how well that

83
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: tuft of dried grass looks where I put it. As

84
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 1: it came near the time for their eggs to hatch,

85
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 1: they could hardly bear to be away long enough to

86
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 1: find food. One day, young mister Sandhill Crane came home

87
00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: very excited. Our neighbors, the cranes who live across the pond.

88
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 1: He said, had two children hatched this morning. Oh, how

89
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: glad I am, cried his wife, How glad I am.

90
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: Those eggs were laid just before hours, which means ours

91
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: must hatch very soon. Now that is what I thought,

92
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: he said. I feel so sorry for them, though, for

93
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: I saw their children and they are dreadfully homely, not

94
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 1: at all like their parents, who are quite good looking.

95
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: I must see them myself, said his wife. And if

96
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: you will cover the eggs while I go for food,

97
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: I will just peep in on them.

98
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 2: I will hurry back.

99
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: She flew steadily across the pond, which was not very wide,

100
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 1: and asked to see the babies. She had never seen

101
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 1: any Crane children, you know, since she herself was little.

102
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: She thought them very ugly to look at, and wondered

103
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: how their mother could seem bright and cheerful with two

104
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: such disappointing children. She said all the polite things that

105
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: she honestly could, then got something to eat and flew home.

106
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: They are very, very homely, she said to her husband.

107
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: And I think it's strange all their older children are

108
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: good looking. She had hardly said this when she heard

109
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 1: a faint tapping sound in the nest. She looked, and

110
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 1: there was the tip of a tiny beak showing through

111
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: the shell of one egg. She stood on one side

112
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: of the nest, watching, and her husband stood on the other,

113
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: while their oldest child slowly made.

114
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 2: His way out.

115
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,439
Speaker 1: They dared not help for fear of hurting him, and besides,

116
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: all the other cranes had told them that they must not.

117
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:03,079
Speaker 2: Oh.

118
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: Look, cried the young mother. What a dear little bill, ah,

119
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 1: said the young father. Did you ever see such a neck?

120
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: Look at those legs, she cried. What a beautiful child

121
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: he is. He looks just like you, said the father,

122
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 1: and I am glad of it. Ugh, no, she said,

123
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 1: he is exactly like you, and she began to clear

124
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: away the broken eggshell. Soon the other crane baby poked

125
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: her bill out, and again the young parents stood around

126
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 1: and admired their child. They could not decide which was

127
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: more handsome, but they were sure that both were remarkable babies.

128
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: They felt more sorry than ever for their neighbors across

129
00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 1: the pond who had such homely children. They took turns

130
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 1: in covering their own damp little cranes and were very,

131
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 1: very happy. Before this, it had been easy to get

132
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: what food they wanted, or there had been two to

133
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: work or two. Now there were two to work for four,

134
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: and that made it much harder. There was no time

135
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 1: for dancing, and both father and mother worked steadily. Yet

136
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 1: they were happier than ever, and neither would have gone

137
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,839
Speaker 1: back to the careless old days. For all the food

138
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 1: in the pond or all the dances on the beach,

139
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: the little cranes grew finely. They changed their down for

140
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: pin feathers, and then these grew into fine brownish gray feathers,

141
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:03,680
Speaker 1: like those which they're paid parents wore. They were good children, too,

142
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 1: and very well brought up. They ate whatever food was

143
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 1: given to them and never found fault with it. When

144
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,479
Speaker 1: they left the nest for the first time, they fluttered

145
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 1: and tumbled and had trouble learning to walk. A mud

146
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: turtle father who was near, told them that this was

147
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:25,959
Speaker 1: because their legs were too.

148
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 2: Long and too few.

149
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 1: Well said the brother, as he picked himself up and

150
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,680
Speaker 1: tried to stand on one leg while he drew the

151
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: other foot out of the tangled grass.

152
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 2: They may be too long, but I'm sure there are

153
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 2: enough of them.

154
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: When I'm thinking about one, I never can tell what.

155
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 2: The other will do.

156
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: Still, it was not long before they could walk and

157
00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: wade and even fly. Then they met the other pond

158
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 1: people and learned to tell a stickleback from a Minnow

159
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 1: they did not have many playmates. The saucy little kingfishers

160
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 1: sat on branches over their heads, The wild ducks waddled

161
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 1: or swam under their very bills. The fishawks floated in

162
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: air above them, and the gulls screamed hoarsely to them

163
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 1: as they circled over the pond. Yet none of them

164
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: were long legged and stately. The things that the other

165
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:39,719
Speaker 1: birds enjoyed most they could not do, and sometimes they

166
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 1: did not like it very well. One night they were

167
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: talking about the gulls when they should have been asleep,

168
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: and their father told them to tuck their heads right

169
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 1: under their wings and not let him hear another word

170
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 1: from them. They tucked their heads under their wings, but

171
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 1: they peeped out between the feathers, and when they were

172
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: sure their father and mother were asleep, they walked softly

173
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: away and planned to do something naughty. I'm tired of

174
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,199
Speaker 1: being good, said the brother. The gulls are never good.

175
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 1: They scream and snatch and contradict and have lots of fun.

176
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 1: Let's be bad just for fun, all right, said his sister.

177
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 2: What shall we do?

178
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: That's the trouble? He said, I can't think of anything

179
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: naughty that I really care for each stood on one

180
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 1: leg and thought for a while we might run away.

181
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: She said, where would we go? He asked, We might

182
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 1: go to the meadow, she said. So they started off

183
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,439
Speaker 1: in the moonlight and went to the meadow. But all

184
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 1: the people there were asleep except the tree frog, and

185
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: he scrambled out of the way as soon as he

186
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: saw them coming, because he thought they might want a

187
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 1: late supper. This isn't any fun, said the brother. Let's

188
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 1: go to the forest. They went to the forest and

189
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: saw the bats flitting in and out among the trees,

190
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: and the bats flew close to the cranes and scared them.

191
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 1: The great horned owl stood on a branch near them

192
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: and stared at them with his big round eyes and

193
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: said ooooooo. Then the brother and sister stood closer together

194
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 1: and answered, if you please, sir, we are the crane children.

195
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 1: But the great horned owl kept on staring at them

196
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 1: and saying oOoOO, until they were sure he was deaf,

197
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 1: and answered louder and louder still. The screech owls came

198
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 1: also and looked at them and bent their bodies over

199
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 1: as if they were laughing, and nodded their heads and

200
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 1: shook themselves The Crane children were sure that they were

201
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: being made fun of, so they stalked away very stiffly,

202
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: and when they were out of sight of the owls,

203
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 1: they flew over toward the farmhouse. They were not having

204
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: any fun at all yet, and they meant to keep

205
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: on trying, for what was the good of being naughty

206
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: if they didn't. They passed horses and cows asleep in

207
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: the fields, and saw the brown hog lying in the

208
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 1: pen with a great many little brown pigs and one

209
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: white pig sleeping beside her. Nobody was awake except Collie,

210
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: the shepherd dog, who was sitting in the farmyard with

211
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 1: his nose in the air, barking at the moon.

212
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 2: Go away.

213
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: He said to the Crane children, who were walking around

214
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: the yard, go away, I must bark at the moon,

215
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 1: and I don't want anybody around. They did not start

216
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: quite soon enough to please him, so he dashed at

217
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 1: them and ran around them and barked at them instead

218
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: of the moon, until they were glad enough to fly

219
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 1: straight home to the place where their father and mother

220
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 1: were sleeping with their heads.

221
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 2: Under their wings.

222
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 1: Are you going to tell them, asked the brother. I

223
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: don't know, answered the sister. When morning came, they looked tired,

224
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: and their father and mother seemed so worried about them

225
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: that they told the whole story. We didn't care so

226
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 1: very much about what we did, they said, but we

227
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 1: thought it would be fun to be naughty. The father

228
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 1: and mother looked at each other in a very knowing way.

229
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: A great many people think that, said the mother gently.

230
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 1: They are mistaken, after all, it is really more fun

231
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:25,639
Speaker 1: to be good. Well, I wish the gulls wouldn't scream

232
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: goody goody at us, said the brother. What difference does

233
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 1: that make, asked his father. Why should a crane care

234
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 1: what a gull says?

235
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 2: Why?

236
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 1: I don't know, stammered the brother. I guess it doesn't

237
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 1: make any difference after all. The next day, when the

238
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 1: Crane children were standing on the edge of the pond,

239
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,879
Speaker 1: a pair of young gulls flew down near them and

240
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: screamed out goody goody.

241
00:17:57,880 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 2: Than the Crane brother.

242
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,360
Speaker 1: And sister lived, did their heads and necks, and opened

243
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:09,199
Speaker 1: their long bills and trumpeted back batty baddie. There, they

244
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: said to each other. Now we are even, and that

245
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:33,719
Speaker 1: is the end of our story. Good Night, sleep tight
