Welcome to once, upon a time the story, time of the San Bruno library, we have story times at the library every single week and I hope to see you there sometime, but for now I'm. So glad you're joining me on our cable storytime. So I have some fun books to read. Let's get started.

A

Just the way we do at the library we're glad you're here today we're glad you're here today, hi-ho the derry-o, we're glad you're here today, hey very good, okay. My first story is called how.

B

Chipmunk got his stripes so before I read this book, I want to show you a picture of a chipmunk. We have Chipmunks in California, but not that many here in the Bay Area. So here's a chipmunk is a little guy like a little squirrel with stripes on his back, and he makes a song chip chip chip chip chip, which is where he gets his name chipmunk.

B

All right so remember that, for what a chipmunk looks, chipmunk looks like, and let's find out this story of how some people think the chipmunk got his stripes.

B

This is by Joseph and James brew check with pictures by hosea re-weigh go and re on dewy.

B

One autumn day long ago, bear was out walking as he walked. He began to brag I.

A

Am bear, I am the biggest of all the animals. Yes, I am I am bear, I am the strongest of all the animals. Yes, I.

B

A

I am bearing the loudest of all the animals. Yes, I am I am bear I. Am there I can do anything? Yes, I can.

B

As soon as bear said, those words, a little voice spoke up from the ground. Can.

A

You really do anything bear.

B

Look down he's a little brown squirrel standing on his hind legs can.

A

You really do anything brown.

B

Squirrel asked again.

B

Bear sit up very tall I.

A

Am there I can do anything, yes, I can. Can you.

B

Tell the Sun not to rise tomorrow morning, brown squirrel last.

A

I've tried that before, but I am bear, I can do that. Yes, I can.

B

Bear turned west to face the Sun. It was the time when the Sun always goes down bear stood up to his full height and spoke in a loud voice. Son.

A

Do nod come up tomorrow at.

B

His words, the Sun, began to disappear behind the hills. You.

A

See bear said, Sun is afraid of me. He is running away, but will the Sun come up tomorrow, brown.

B

Squirrel asked no.

A

B

Answered The Sun will not come up.

B

Then bear turn to face east the direction where the Sun always used to come up. He sat down. Little brown squirrel sat down beside him. Oh that night they did not sleep. Oh that night bear kept saying these words. The.

A

Sun come up, but.

B

As the night went on, little brown squirrel began to say something too. He said these words.

A

The Sun is going to rise whoo, the Sun is going to rise, ooh.

B

All through the night, they sat there, one by one other animals gathered round them: Fox and Wolf deer and moose rabbit and porcupine, Hawk and owl otter and beaver frog and turtle, and even the little mice came they wanted to see who would be right, bear or brown squirrel. This is what the other animals heard. The.

A

Sun will not come up, the Sun is going to rise woo, the Sun will not come up. The Sun is going to rise ooh. Finally,.

B

It was just before dawn the time when the Sun always used to come up. Look said turtle. A little bit of red is starting to show yes said: owl I believe the Sun will rise today, they're only chanted louder, the Sun will not come up, but right next to him little brown squirrel piped up the.

A

Sun is going to rise, woo.

B

And the Sun came up the birds sang their welcoming songs, the bright light of the new day spread over the land. Everyone was happy, except for one animal, that animal was there. He sat there with his head down and it won't be look on his face.

B

The happiest animal of all was the little brown squirrel. The.

A

Sun came up, he chirped. The time came up, the Sun came up, the Sun came up brown.

B

Squirrel was so happy. He forgot what his wise old grandmother had told him when he was very young for how this worl, whose grandmother had said it, is good to be right about something. But when someone else is wrong, it is not a good idea to tease him now. Little brown squirrel began to tease bear bear.

A

Is foolish the Sun came up, there is silly, the Sun came up bear is stupid. The Sun.

A

B

Bears big paw came down on little brown squirrel, pinning him to the ground, bear leaned over and opened his huge mouth. Yes,.

A

Bear growl the Sun did come up. Yes, I do look foolish, but you will not live to see another sunrise. You will not ever tease anyone else again because I bear and want to eat you up. Browns girl thought best. You are right to eat me. He said I wasn't wrong to tease you I would like to say I'm. Sorry before you eat me, but you are pressing down on me so hard that I cannot say anything. I cannot say anything. I cannot even breathe.

A

If you would just lift your paw just a little bit, then I could take a deep breath and apologize before you eat me that.

B

Was a good idea bear.

A

Said I would like to hear you apologize before I eat. You.

B

So bear lifted up his paw, but instead of apologizing brown squirrel ran. He ran as fast as he could towards the pile of stones where he had his home. He had a tunnel under those stones and a nice warm burrow, deep underground. Little brown squirrels grandmother stood there in the doorway ting for him hurry brown squirrel. She called hurry hurry.

B

Little brown squirrel doe for the door to his home, but bear was faster than he looked. He grabbed for little brown squirrel with his big paw bears long sharp claws, scratched brown squirrels back from the top of his head to the tip of.

A

B

But brown squirrel got away deep down in his burrow, where bear couldn't get him brown squirrel curled up next to his grandmother and slept all winter while those scratches on his back healed.

B

When spring came again, little brown squirrel came out of his hole and looked at himself. They were long pale stripes all the way down his back. Where bear had scratched him, he was brown squirrel. No longer he was now chipmunk the striped one.

B

That is how chipmunk got his stripes ever since then chipmunk has been the first animal to get up every morning as the Sun rises. He scoots to the top of the tallest tree to sing his song. The.

A

Sun came up, the Sun came up, the Sun came up, the Sun came up.

B

And ever since then, there has been the last animal to get up. He does not like to hear chipmunk song. It reminds him as it reminds us all that no one not even bear can do everything, and that is the story of how chipmunk got his stripes. Let's take.

A

B

Hi my name's miss Barbara I'm, so glad you're back with me for story time. I'm gonna read another one of the great books that we have at the library we have so many fun books here for you to read and I'm gonna share this one with you. This is called the Three Little Pigs and the Fox. You probably know versions of this story about the three little pigs. This is by William hooks with pictures by SD Schindler.

B

This story happened long time ago way back when animals could still talk around these parts back, then they could say a whole lot more than baa baa, Moo, Moo, oink, wink and stuff like that they could talk just about like human folks back then there was this humongous mama pig. She built herself, a house out of rocks in a pretty green hid valley over Black Mountain way. As soon as she finished, she moved into her fine rock house with her three piglets, the oldest piglet Rooter was a fair sized shoat.

B

The middle piglet Oinky was a real mama's boy. The baby piglet was a tiny little girl, runt named Hamlet.

B

Now, ruder and Enki and Hamlet had the finest pig house in the holler. They even had a wallowing hole right in the front yard, but all Reuter and inky wanted to do was eat. Eat, eat, baby, Hamlet liked to eat too, but not all the time Hamlet liked to roll around in the delicious mud in the wallowing hole and look up at the pretty blue sky. She was a right, smart piglet with more on her mind than eating it wasn't long before. Reuter and inky got so fat. They just about filled up the whole house.

B

What a squeeze it was to fit everybody in. Finally, it got so tight that mama pig spoke to ruder ruder you're, the oldest times come for you to go out and seek your fortune. Oh no ruder, squealed, I'm. Still a piglet look in that mud hole said mama pig. What do you see? Ruder looked in the muddy water, see a great big fat pig that big fat pig is you ruder times come to go and seek your fortune well, ruder, hemmed and hawed.

B

It had an extra big helping of his mama's baked beans to settle his nerves. Okie had some just to keep ruder company. Meanwhile, mama pig gathered up some hoe, cakes and turnips, along with some dried beans and corn. She packed them in a big tow sacked for Rooter to take along now son mas, said mama pig you'll be fine.

B

If you remember these three things, that's a lot to remember, said: Rooter, stop chewing and listen careful said: mama pig, Rooter, gulped, I'm, listening one you gotta watch out for that mean old, tricky drooling mouth Fox, to build yourself, a safe, strong house out of rocks three come home to your mama, every single Sunday mama and oukie, and baby Hamlet kissed Rooter on his fat round dolls, and for good luck. They kissed him again on this pink Trembley snout, then Rooter trotted down the road dragging his tow sack behind him. He walked and he walked.

B

And what did all that walking? Do it made him hungry? He didn't think about any mean tricky old, drooly mouth Fox. He didn't think about any safe, strong rock house. He didn't think about visiting his mama come Sunday. All he could think about was the food his mama had put into the tow sack. So he set himself down on a rock and opened up the sack who cakes he squeals and started. Gobbling them up. Rooter felt a tap on the shoulder. He didn't look around and he didn't miss a chew.

B

Just said between bites, don't bother me I'm busy eating, but the tapping went on Rooter swallowed, a big chunk of HO cake and looked around there was mean tricky old drooly mouth Fox grinning at him have some hoecake said: Rooter real scared, don't like hoecake, said the Fox. Well, how about some turnips are cool and said: Rooter, don't like none of them said the Fox. Well,.

A

What can I offer? You said: Rooter I, love, barbecued,.

B

Pig cried the Fox and he grabbed the tow sack and stuff Rooter into it. Please don't eat me up. Rooter pleaded, I won't eat. You right now said me and Ricky old ruling. Mouth Fox, I'm gonna, save you up for a cold winter day, nothing like hot barbecue on a cold winter's day, so I took poor Rooter off to his dad and locked him up sunday rolled around Oh Day mama pig and baby Hamlet looked for Rooter to come visiting well.

B

Blinky spent the Sabbath eating a double share: rutabagas and corn dumplings, but the night came on without ruder ever showing up a month of Sundays past an A didn't see snout or tail of Rooter. Meanwhile, inky was growing, so big. The house was getting crowded again. They were having a hard time fitting in finally mama pig says: oink e. It's time you set out to seek your fortune. No.

A

Mama Oinky squealed and him too little to leave my mama.

B

Looking at in that hall, tell me what you see said: mama pig oinking looked in the muddy water and saw how huge he had grown. He knew his mama was right, Ricky didn't say a word, but two big tears roads rolled down his pump, towels mama pig, said no need for tears. Oinky. All you have to do is remember three things. One watch out for that mean tricky old rule, email Fox, to build yourself, a safe, strong house out of rocks three come home to your mama.

B

Every single Sunday mama packed one key, a tow sack full of his favorite food. There's the tow sacks, a big sack for all his stuff and kissed Winky on his fat round gels and for good luck. They kissed him again on his pink Trembley. Snout Winky went slowly on down the road till he was out of sight, he walked and he walked and he walked and he kept thinking how much he was gonna miss his mama. He felt so sad. He sat down on a rock to have a little nourishment and cheer himself.

B

He didn't think once about the mean Fox or building a safe house, although he did long for Sunday to visit. His mama Oinky was just ease in a tooth into a crusty golden corn dumpling when he felt the tap on the shoulder he whirled around so fast he dropped the dumpling. There was mean.

A

Tricky ol drooling a mal Fox grinning at him.

B

Would you like some of my did the dumpling stammered Winkie scared to death, never.

A

B

Set the Fox: how about some rutabagas asked Ikey can't stand the smell of them.

A

Said the Fox well! Well, what do you like a stinky pork with lima beans, ed rocks and he snatched up the tow sack and stuffed poor Twinkie inside? Please don't eat me Maggie! Please, please! Please! Oh.

B

You know Chucky Juli, old, mouth, Fox, I'm, not gonna, eat you right now. I'm gonna, save you for a rainy day, there's nothing better than for pork and beans on a rainy day. So the Fox took O&K to his den and locked him up sunday rolled around mama and baby Hamlet got up early and cooked a big mess of collard greens and wild onions.

B

They wanted to have something special in case ruder and I can't remember to come, see their mama, but the night came on without either ruder or Enki ever showing up a month of Sundays passed and they didn't see snout nor tail of ruder Oinky the leaves turned all red and gold and the night's got real nippy baby Hamlet, who didn't look so much like a little runt anymore, was getting restless one day she spoke to her mama mama. It's high time. I went out in the world to seek my fortune.

B

Oh no mama pig cried you're too young to leave your.

A

Mama, besides, none of my children ever come back to visit me on Sundays.

B

Now stop your worrying mama said: Hamlet I can take care of myself. All I've got to do is remember three things. One watch out for that mean tricky old rule, email Fox, to build myself, a safe, strong house out of rocks three come home and visit, my dear sweet mama, every Sunday, so mama pig packed a tow sack with sweet, potato pone, Hamlet's, favorite food. She kissed baby on her fat round gels and for luck, kissed her again on her pink Trembley, snout Hamlet skipped down the road she walked and she walked.

B

She looked all around to make sure no mean Fox was sneaking up on her. She got tired and set herself down on a rock to rest, I.

A

B

I'll just have a nibble on this sweet potato pone. She said. Suddenly she felt a tap on the shoulder. It was mean: tricky old, drooly, mouth Fox grinning at her. What a surprise exclaimed Hamlet she was thinking fast and stalling for time. I've got a real big surprise, for you said the Fox I mentioned. Surprise first said Hamlet. This tow sack is full of surprises, Fox reached inside the sack and pulled out some sweet potato pone. Oh he mumbled chew anyway. Only one thing: I like better than sweet potato pone.

B

What's that asked Hamlet pork chops to go with it cried the Fox grabbing for baby Hamlet, but Hamlet was too sharp for him. She slapped the tow sack over the Fox and tied it tight with a hard knot. Then she left that old, Fox, rolling and squirming around on the ground inside.

B

Hamlet skipped on down the road til. She found a place with a bunch of fine rocks. She made herself a safe little rock house with a nice fireplace to keep warm by no sooner had Hamlet settled in, and that mean tricky old drooly mouth Fox came knocking at her door. Please.

A

Let me in a little peg, he.

B

A

Do you're freezing to death.

B

Not on the fuzz of your bushy tail, well, I! Let you in cried Hamlet! Please.

A

Have mercy on the poor old Fox? My nose is about frozen.

B

Off just open the door crack to. Let me warn my nose. He pleaded Hamlet cracked, the door. Might the Fox shoved in his nose in the crack slam, Hamlet bang the door shut, the Fox thought his nose would really drop off. It hurts oh, but he.

A

Was thinking of what nice pork chops Hamlet will make? My nose is warmer now he crawled.

B

But my ears are freezing, please open the door a little wider, so I could warm my ears. Hamlet opened the door a little more. The Fox tried to push all the way in lamb, Hamlet bang the door shut, pretty near, knocking the breath out of mean tricky old, drooly mouth fox, but the fox still had his mind set on pork chops. Oh, that was much better little piggy gasped. Now, if you would open the door a little bit more and let me get my hind feet, warmed I'll be on my way.

B

Hamlet opened the door wide the Fox sprang inside, but that smart little pig was too fast for him slam. She shut the door in his tail and stopped him in his tracks. Oh, my tail cried the mean tricky old rouille mouth Fox, you be quiet, said Hamlet you're, making so much racket. I can't hear. What's going on outside the Fox lowered his voice to a moan.

A

Please my tail my tail just what I thought I heard said: Hamlet dogs, barking dogs, what kind of dogs that's the fox hunting dogs, I'm, sure, they're fox hunting dogs from the way they're barking. Please hard to me, cried the Fox, don't let the hounds catch me.

B

Pamela was thinking fast, sharp I'll hide you. If you tell me what you've done with Reuter and linky they're locked up in my.

A

Den please hurry those dogs will be here any minute. First.

B

Tell me where I can find your dad mean tricky old, really mouth Fox hated to give that away, but his tail was killing him and the dogs are hot on his trail and so did the big rusty coloured rock over on rattlesnake hall, or he groaned here jump into this churn said Hamlet. She pushed the door door off, mean tricky old, drooly, mouse fox and tail and lifted the lid from the big wooden churn. The Fox squeezed inside Hamlet slammed the lid down on the churn and.

A

Latch it tight for the dogs getting closer. The Fox mumbled.

B

From inside the churn, what dogs asked, maybe Hamlet I don't hear no dogs, the old Fox knew he'd, been tricked, he gnashed his teeth and rattled and raved and shook the turn, but he couldn't get out baby Hamlet rolled to turn down to the creek and right in the water downstream. It floated like an ark, and that was the last mean tricky old rule.

B

Email fox was seen around the hollers of black mountain baby, hamlet, hurried on down to rattlesnake holler and searched all around until she found the fox den with her brother's Rooter and Anki.

B

It just happened to be on a Sunday when she found them and set them free, so they all trotted right over to momma pig's house and there was snorting and eating and kissing and eating wowing in the mud, hole and more eating the likes of which you've never seen, and that is the story of the three little pigs and the Fox, and that brings us to the end of Once Upon, a Time and, let's say a goodbye song.

A

Well, it's time to say goodbye to our friends. Well, it's time to say goodbye to our friends. Well, it's time to say goodbye, give a wave and say goodbye! Well, it's time to say goodbye to our friends, so send me down and let the smell be.

A

I'll hide myself in storytime again you.
