WEBVTT - Rescuing A Whale

0:00:02.920 --> 0:00:09.600
<v Speaker 1>Hello, friends, and welcome to bedtime Stories with mister Jim. Oh.

0:00:12.080 --> 0:00:16.200
<v Speaker 1>I was just getting ready for bed, are you as well?

0:00:17.040 --> 0:00:21.119
<v Speaker 1>Oh good? I hope you brushed your teeth and found

0:00:21.160 --> 0:00:26.520
<v Speaker 1>all of your comfy things like pillows and blankets and stuffies.

0:00:27.440 --> 0:00:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh yes, oh good. Well, as long as you have

0:00:31.440 --> 0:00:35.960
<v Speaker 1>all those things ready, then it's time for our story.

0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:40.239
<v Speaker 1>But first we must close our eyes so that we

0:00:40.280 --> 0:00:56.960
<v Speaker 1>can travel to an imaginary world. Hallen and Miles were

0:00:57.000 --> 0:01:01.440
<v Speaker 1>two young friends who love nothing more and going on

0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:07.920
<v Speaker 1>adventures and exploring new places. They lived by the ocean

0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:12.080
<v Speaker 1>and spent most of their days playing in the sand

0:01:12.880 --> 0:01:17.880
<v Speaker 1>and splashing in the waves. Sometimes their sand castles would

0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:21.680
<v Speaker 1>be so big and tall that they could even crawl

0:01:21.840 --> 0:01:26.440
<v Speaker 1>inside of them. Have you ever built a sand castle

0:01:26.560 --> 0:01:32.679
<v Speaker 1>that big before? Wow? Well, one day, while they were

0:01:32.720 --> 0:01:37.279
<v Speaker 1>out playing, they heard a strange noise coming from the beach.

0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:42.119
<v Speaker 1>They ran over to see what it was, and they

0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:47.880
<v Speaker 1>were shocked to find a humongous whale stuck on the sand,

0:01:48.640 --> 0:01:54.120
<v Speaker 1>struggling to get back into the water. Hallan and Miles

0:01:54.200 --> 0:01:58.600
<v Speaker 1>knew they had to help. They had learned in school

0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:02.560
<v Speaker 1>about how whale can get beached if they get too

0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:08.840
<v Speaker 1>close to shore. They were very worried about this poor whale,

0:02:09.040 --> 0:02:13.480
<v Speaker 1>so they sprang into action, determined to save it. They

0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:17.960
<v Speaker 1>tried to push the whale back into the ocean, but

0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:21.800
<v Speaker 1>it was far too heavy for them to move on

0:02:21.880 --> 0:02:25.840
<v Speaker 1>their own, so they ran back to their houses to

0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:31.399
<v Speaker 1>get help from their neighbors. Miles ran down his street

0:02:31.440 --> 0:02:36.400
<v Speaker 1>and Halan ran down her street, knocking on every single

0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:40.880
<v Speaker 1>door to see what neighbors might be able to help.

0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:49.040
<v Speaker 1>They found many parents and kids, grandmas and grandpas, all

0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:52.600
<v Speaker 1>willing to help save the whale that was stuck on

0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:56.520
<v Speaker 1>the sand. What would you do if you found a

0:02:56.560 --> 0:03:01.000
<v Speaker 1>whale that was stuck on the sand? Would you try

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:06.240
<v Speaker 1>to help it? Oh? Good, me too. When they returned

0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:12.600
<v Speaker 1>to the beach with their parents, neighbors, and friends, they

0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:17.600
<v Speaker 1>started to pull and push with all their might. This

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:23.880
<v Speaker 1>whale was almost as long as their houses. Wow. Can

0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:29.480
<v Speaker 1>you imagine trying to push your house? Oh? I think

0:03:29.520 --> 0:03:33.959
<v Speaker 1>I would need a lot of help for that. Together

0:03:34.360 --> 0:03:39.360
<v Speaker 1>they all pushed and pulled, and finally, inch by inch,

0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:44.840
<v Speaker 1>they pushed the whale back into the ocean. It was

0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:52.200
<v Speaker 1>a huge job. Finally they succeeded. As the whales swam away,

0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:56.200
<v Speaker 1>it turned to look at Hallen and Miles, they could

0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:59.800
<v Speaker 1>see its eye poking out above the surface of the water.

0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:05.040
<v Speaker 1>It leaned to its side and waved its fin as

0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:09.840
<v Speaker 1>a way of saying thank you. Both Helen and Miles

0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:13.080
<v Speaker 1>were very happy that they were able to save this

0:04:13.240 --> 0:04:17.680
<v Speaker 1>poor whale that had been stuck. Not only had they

0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:22.640
<v Speaker 1>helped save a life, a very important life, they also

0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:27.800
<v Speaker 1>were able to pull all their friends, neighbors, and parents

0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:33.400
<v Speaker 1>together to do the job as one. From that day on,

0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:37.839
<v Speaker 1>Hallen and Miles made a promise to protect their beach.

0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Part of this job and walking up and down the

0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:47.360
<v Speaker 1>beach collecting any litter or trash that might have washed upshore,

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:51.800
<v Speaker 1>and also helping the animals that might have gotten stuck

0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:57.560
<v Speaker 1>along their journey. They knew that by working together they

0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:07.520
<v Speaker 1>could make one big difference in the world. Later that night,

0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:12.400
<v Speaker 1>as they finished their day, Helen and Miles said goodbye

0:05:12.480 --> 0:05:16.040
<v Speaker 1>to each other and went back to their houses. They

0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:20.240
<v Speaker 1>got ready for bed brushed their teeth, But as they

0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:24.120
<v Speaker 1>lay in bed that night thinking about their day's adventure,

0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:29.000
<v Speaker 1>they couldn't help but smile. They knew that they had

0:05:29.080 --> 0:05:33.400
<v Speaker 1>a very special job of protecting the beach and saving

0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:36.760
<v Speaker 1>that whale, and they couldn't have done it without each

0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:40.680
<v Speaker 1>other and all their friends. And with that thought, they

0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:45.680
<v Speaker 1>fell asleep, dreaming of all the amazing adventures that they

0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:51.119
<v Speaker 1>would have together in the future. Wow, as we fall

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:55.360
<v Speaker 1>asleep tonight, I wonder if there's something special waiting for

0:05:55.440 --> 0:06:00.760
<v Speaker 1>you tomorrow, some kind of adventure or something that needs

0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:08.159
<v Speaker 1>your help. Well, my friends, I think it's about time

0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:11.240
<v Speaker 1>that we head to bed so that we can have

0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:16.800
<v Speaker 1>our energy ready for whatever adventure waits us tomorrow. Good Night,

0:06:16.920 --> 0:07:40.000
<v Speaker 1>my friends, and sweet dreams.
