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. Sweet dreams, Avery, her
Speaker 1: mom said, as she kissed her on the head and
Speaker 1: turned out the light. Avery gave a sleepy smile and
Speaker 1: closed her eyes, drifting off to the place between sleep
Speaker 1: and dreams and waited. Every night. When Avery fell asleep,
Speaker 1: she met the dream dragon, who took her to her dreams.
Speaker 1: Avery floated around sleepily until a beam of fiery light appeared,
Speaker 1: taking shape as it flew gracefully closer. The dream Dragon's
Speaker 1: scales shimmered like a dancing lantern, casting orange and yellow
Speaker 1: lights over Avery. Let's go find some dreams. The dragon
Speaker 1: beamed its toothy smile at her, and Avery nodded and
Speaker 1: climbed up onto the dragon's back like she did every night.
Speaker 1: As the dragon flew, Avery imagined she was flying beside it.
Speaker 1: She opened her eyes to see sparkling waves below her,
Speaker 1: even dolphins jumping through the water. The dream Dragon was
Speaker 1: beside her as she flew on her own wings. Avery
Speaker 1: was a water dragon, dipping her wings in the water
Speaker 1: and feeling its coolness. Dive in. Avery come play. The
Speaker 1: dolphins squealed to her as they jumped in and out
Speaker 1: of the water. Avery waved to the dream Dragon before
Speaker 1: diving in to join the dolphins. The dolphins swam around
Speaker 1: her with glee, and the dream Dragon continued on without her,
Speaker 1: as it did every night. She swam along with them
Speaker 1: a bit as a water dragon before transforming into a
Speaker 1: blue whale. Her massive size made it difficult to jump
Speaker 1: in and out of the water, so instead she dove
Speaker 1: down deep to explore. The ocean grew darker as the
Speaker 1: sun rays faded away. The only light down here came
Speaker 1: from the jellyfish, who glowed like night lights as they
Speaker 1: gently swayed wherever the water took them. Avery searched for
Speaker 1: someone else to play with along the stillness of the
Speaker 1: deep ocean and discovered a sea cave. She shrunk down
Speaker 1: into a manta ray in order to fit through the
Speaker 1: entrance She swam through a wall of water and popped
Speaker 1: out the other side as Avery. No fins or flippers,
Speaker 1: just Avery. The sun was shining and the grass and
Speaker 1: bushes were lush and green. Rumbles shook the ground around
Speaker 1: her until giant feet came into view. A t rex
Speaker 1: roared high above, and Avery at once became a t
Speaker 1: rex too. Yay a friend, the t rex said, now
Speaker 1: that Avery could understand it. Avery and the t rex
Speaker 1: stomped through the trees together, side by side, until the
Speaker 1: sun lowered the sky a deep orange. It reminded Avery
Speaker 1: of the dream Dragon, and as she looked again, she
Speaker 1: could see the orange of the sun's rays sailing toward her,
Speaker 1: forming into her dear old friend. As the dream Dragon
Speaker 1: landed beside her, Avery waved goodbye to the t rex
Speaker 1: with her tiny little t rex arms. She was much
Speaker 1: too big to climb on his back, so she shrank
Speaker 1: down and became soft and fuzzy. Avery the bunny rabbit,
Speaker 1: hopped onto the dream Dragon and they took off, flying
Speaker 1: up towards the moon. They flew a few loops around
Speaker 1: the stars, watching the comets and space rocks within is around.
Speaker 1: Avery decided she would like to catch a ride on
Speaker 1: one of them, and the dream Dragon transformed. The dream
Speaker 1: Dragon's glowing scales turned to stone, while its tail became
Speaker 1: the fiery tail of a comet. They looped around the
Speaker 1: planets a few times until Avery told the dragon, I'm
Speaker 1: ready to rest now. So the dragon comet brought her
Speaker 1: to a planet where her bunny self hopped off and
Speaker 1: headed towards the forest. She found a soft bed of
Speaker 1: grass below the trees and curled up underneath it. The
Speaker 1: fireflies blinked around her, drying shapes with their lights. She
Speaker 1: listened as the bullfrogs croaked by the lake, thought about
Speaker 1: what it would be like to rip it so deeply.
Speaker 1: She hopped over to the water's edge and jumped to
Speaker 1: a lily pad, where her legs became long and green.
Speaker 1: Avery the bullfrog smiled at the others began to croak
Speaker 1: in rhythm. She watched as fish swam below, dancing to
Speaker 1: their tune. Avery laughed as the dream Dragon returned began
Speaker 1: to dance along as well. She could tell it was
Speaker 1: almost time to go back with the dream Dragon and
Speaker 1: start her new day, But for now, she sang and
Speaker 1: danced along with the dragon and the bullfrogs. Enjoying her
Speaker 1: dreams where she could be anything she wanted to be.
Speaker 1: My friends, as it's time to close our eyes, may
Speaker 1: you have very sweet dreams where you can be anything
Speaker 1: that you want to be. Good Night, my friends,
