Speaker 1: Hello friends, and welcome to bedtime stories with mister Jim. Oh.
Speaker 1: I was just getting ready for bed, are you as well?
Speaker 1: Oh good? I hope you brushed your teeth and found
Speaker 1: all of your comfy things like pillows and blankets and stuffies.
Speaker 1: Oh yes, oh good. Well, as long as you have
Speaker 1: all those things ready, then it's time for our story.
Speaker 1: But first we must close our eyes so that we
Speaker 1: can travel to an imaginary world. She floated around on
Speaker 1: papery wings. As soon as the sun had set, the
Speaker 1: moonlight shone through her green fairy wings and twinkled on
Speaker 1: her clothes. See every night she left her fairy kingdom
Speaker 1: with her wand and tiny bag. Her job was very important.
Speaker 1: All of the children knew her, even you, but no
Speaker 1: one has ever seen her as she slipped under pillows
Speaker 1: and exchanged teeth for little gifts. The tooth Fairy was
Speaker 1: as small as a bumblebee, but as bright and quiet
Speaker 1: as a firefly. Looking out at the night sky. You
Speaker 1: may have seen her before without even realizing it. Maybe
Speaker 1: she was dancing among the lightning bugs or chasing a
Speaker 1: shooting star. You may have mistaken her for a flash
Speaker 1: of light in the darkness, but that was all right
Speaker 1: with her. The tooth Fairy did her best work without
Speaker 1: being seen. No one even knew the tooth Fairy's name,
Speaker 1: since no one had ever even spoken to her before.
Speaker 1: On this night, just like all the others before it,
Speaker 1: the tooth Fairy left her fairy kingdom to begin her
Speaker 1: night's work. She fluttered past trees of hooting owls and
Speaker 1: waved hello to the red fox in the meadow. The
Speaker 1: animals all knew her and looked forward to her arrival.
Speaker 1: Even the bug eating bats did not mistake her for food,
Speaker 1: and along beside her for a bit. Then the tooth
Speaker 1: Fairy spotted the vibrant green of a luna moth. She
Speaker 1: swooped down onto its back and caught a ride into town.
Speaker 1: She needed to save her energy for all of the
Speaker 1: homes she would be visiting. A luna moth landed gracefully
Speaker 1: against the first window, and the tooth Fairy patted the
Speaker 1: moth in thankfulness, pointing her wand at the window. The
Speaker 1: glass at once shimmered and flowed like water within the frame.
Speaker 1: She was able to walk right through it into this
Speaker 1: little girl's bedroom. You see, Natalie was fast asleep under
Speaker 1: her cozy comforter. Her head resting on a pink, fluffy pillow,
Speaker 1: The tooth Fairy knew that under that pillow was something
Speaker 1: very special. It was the first tooth the little girl
Speaker 1: had ever lost. Soon Natalie would have a strong, new
Speaker 1: adult tooth in its place. The tooth Fairy fluttered to
Speaker 1: the pillow and waved her wand a light shone from
Speaker 1: underneath as the tooth began to wiggle its way out.
Speaker 1: It peeked out of the edge of the pillow and
Speaker 1: wiggled fast for a few seconds before popping right out
Speaker 1: and doing a little spin in the air. The tooth
Speaker 1: Fairy reached out, plucked the tooth from the air, tucked
Speaker 1: it safely into her bag. Tapping her wand on the pillow,
Speaker 1: glitter and coins appeared underneath with a silent poof. The
Speaker 1: tooth Fairy whispered, could not not al and turned to
Speaker 1: fly back through the rippling window. When she heard a small,
Speaker 1: sleepy voice respond good night, tooth Fairy. The tooth Fairy
Speaker 1: flew in place like a hummingbird. Wait. No child had
Speaker 1: ever spoken to her before. This was something new. Would
Speaker 1: the little girl remember? Would she tell her friends? Did
Speaker 1: she want to be the tooth Fairy's friend too. That
Speaker 1: sounded nice, she thought. The tooth Fairy flew over to
Speaker 1: the little girl's pillow and took a seat. Natalie smiled
Speaker 1: and her tooth. While her missing tooth was now on display,
Speaker 1: She rattled off many questions, wondering how the tooth fairy
Speaker 1: did her job and what it was like to be
Speaker 1: a fairy. The tooth Fairy just smiled and waited for
Speaker 1: her to finish. Then she said, were lurlatasu. The little
Speaker 1: girl nodded enthusiastically, and the tooth Fairy waved her wand
Speaker 1: in a circle around Natalie. Natalie became smaller and smaller
Speaker 1: until she was standing next to the tooth Fairy. The
Speaker 1: Luna moth flew in and landed beside the two of them.
Speaker 1: Natalie climbed on and the moth followed. As the tooth
Speaker 1: Fairy led the way through the shimmery window glass and
Speaker 1: out into the night air. Natalie thought the window looked
Speaker 1: like a waterfall as they flew through it. She turned
Speaker 1: around to catch a glimpse and watched it hardened to
Speaker 1: glass once more. Together they fluttered around from house to house,
Speaker 1: the tooth Fairy on her own wings and Natalie on
Speaker 1: the Luna Moth. At the last house, the tooth Fairy
Speaker 1: let Natalie borrow her wand Natalie waved it at the
Speaker 1: little boy's pillow, and the two teeth wiggled out from
Speaker 1: underneath it. They danced around the room before floating into
Speaker 1: the tooth Fairy's bag. Despite the amount of teeth that entered,
Speaker 1: the bag never grew larger. Natalie wondered if it was
Speaker 1: a direct portal to the fairy Kingdom. Once the teeth
Speaker 1: were out of s I, Natalie tapped the pillow once
Speaker 1: twice and Glitter escaped from beneath with a slight hop,
Speaker 1: but the boys slept on. After returning the wand to
Speaker 1: the Tooth Fairy, Natalie climbed up onto the moth once more.
Speaker 1: They flew back through the rippling window, the night's mission
Speaker 1: now complete. She watched the sleepy homes pass by as
Speaker 1: they flew toward her own. The darkened windows made the
Speaker 1: homes look like they had their eyes closed sleeping themselves,
Speaker 1: and soon her eyes began to do the same. Snuggled
Speaker 1: up against the fuzzy back of the moth, Natalie began
Speaker 1: to doze. She dreamed of fairy kingdoms with gleaming white castles,
Speaker 1: green wings fluttering about, and beautiful moths who came to visit.
Speaker 1: Back through the window and into the little girl's room,
Speaker 1: they flew, placing the sleeping Natalie gently down on her
Speaker 1: pillow before the tooth Fairy waved her wand once more
Speaker 1: Natalie grew to her little girl's size, still small, but
Speaker 1: much larger than the fairy. The tooth Fairy tapped the
Speaker 1: pillow twice, and under the pillow appeared a special thank
Speaker 1: you for Natalie. Then she flew out into the night,
Speaker 1: passed all the quiet homes and sleepy woods, and back
Speaker 1: to her fairy kingdom to rest. The end. Well, my friends,
Speaker 1: as we close our eyes and dripped off to sleep,
Speaker 1: may you have very sweet dreams. Good night, my friends,
