Hi, my name is miss barbara and I'd like to welcome you to once upon a time the cable story, time of the san bruno library today we're going to have some really fun stories, some of my favorite stories about outer space, and so, let's start with a rhyme- and it goes like this- it says: do you want to go up to the moon say that with me? Okay, ready! Do you want to go up to the moon? Let's get in our rocket ship and blast off soon faster and faster. We reach to the sky.

B

Isn't it fun to be able to fly we're on the moon? Take a look now, let's sit down and I'll. Read you a book? Ok! So my first book is called baby brains by Simon James. You may remember: I've read you baby brain superstar before this is the first one about baby brains, the smartest baby in the whole world.

B

In the months before baby brains was born, mrs. brains was very busy. She read out loud every night to the baby inside her tummy. She played music and languages on headphones to her baby during the day. Mr. and mrs. brains wanted to make sure their baby was going to be very smart. They even turned up the television, and the news came on mr. and mrs. brains were very excited when their baby was born. It was a boy, our very own baby brain said, mr. brains proudly when they brought him home from the hospital. Mrs.

B

brains laid him down in the brand new crib sleep tight, baby brains, she whispered the next morning. Mrs. brains was on her way to get breakfast when she heard some strange noises in the living room, missus brains opened the door to see her baby sitting on the sofa reading. The morning paper by afternoon, baby brains was fixing. The car We certainly have a bright. One here said, mr. brains, that evening baby brain spoke, his first words I'd like to go to school tomorrow. He said the next day, baby brains visited the local school.

B

He sat down with the children and answered all the questions. The children were amazed at the end of the afternoon, the teacher thanked baby brains, I, don't think I've ever learned so much in one day. She said on the way home baby brain said he wanted to go to college and study medicine.

B

After just two weeks, baby brains began working as a doctor with the local hospital. He was very popular with all the staff and the patient's word soon spread about the extraordinary baby brains. Everyone wanted to meet him one night. Some space scientists called they asked if baby brains would like to help with their next space mission, the following day, mr. and mrs. brains and their baby traveled to the Space Center after training hard over the weekend, baby brains waved goodbye to mr. and mrs. brains and blasted off into outer space.

B

Everyone in the world held their breath as they watched baby brains. Take its first spacewalk tell us how you feel on this special occasion, radioed ground control, baby brains, looked up at the vast starlit sky. Above him he looked down at the vast starlit sky below him. He looked at the whole world in front of him and mumbled, something we can't quite hear you radioed ground control. Could you repeat that.

B

Weld baby brains, that's enough! Mrs. brains, yelled to the space controller, bring my baby home right now.

B

Baby brains was flown home as quickly as possible. He felt very embarrassed as he stepped down from the hatch, but through the crowd of photographers and cameramen, mrs. brains came running our beautiful little baby beside mrs. brains as she lifted him high into the air. Our brave little baby said mr. brains asked baby brains at home, mrs. brains, gay baby brains, a warm bath which made him feel a lot better. Mr. brains, tickled him which made him laugh and mrs. brain sang baby brains to sleep.

B

Then they gently laid him down in the brand new crib. It was good to have their baby home again, our very own baby brains, whispered, mrs. brains from that day on baby brain spent, most of his time at home. Doing the thing that most babies do, except that is on weekends when he still like to go help out at the local hospital.

B

So that's our going into outerspace story. Our next story is called company's coming by Arthur, your inks with pictures by David small, and this is when outer space comes here. Let's see how this goes here comes a flying, saucer on.

B

The day Shirley had invited all of her relatives to dinner and Moe. Her husband was pleasantly tinkering in the yard. A flying, saucer quietly landed next to their toolshed. Moe was surprised, Shirley yeah surely joined Moe on the patio. No, you had to buy that barbecue. It's too big. She complained Shirl, it's not a barbecue. Well said.

B

Suddenly, a small hatch on the saucer opened and out walked to visitors from outer space greetings. They spoke in English, we come in peace. Do you have a bathroom, stunned, Shirley, replied down the hall and to the left? The foreigners nodded graciously and walked into the house.

B

How could you let them into the house? Moe was upset. Did you see those helmets, those ray guns, they'll vaporize us? It was very upset. They're coming Shirley whispered stay calm, be polite. Maybe we can make friends with them.

B

What a lovely house you have The! Strangers commented: what do you call this place now? More, surely politely answered the visitors nodded we're from away far away and we've been travelling for years on our way to the next Galaxy. How about a sandwich? You must be hungry. Shirley nervously interrupted, would you like to stay for dinner gee? They replied, we'd love to will return at 6 o'clock, the spaceman went back to their ship and flew off Moe and Shirley ran into the house. Are you crazy?

B

The cousins are coming tonight. Why did you invite them to dinner? Moe asked they'll atomize us Balmore, the whole earth is doomed. I tell you, Moe was hysterical.

B

Take it easy. They look like nice, boys Shirley, said. Come help me make the potato salad, but Moe had other thoughts saying he had to wash his hands. He went upstairs and called the FBI. The FBI called the Pentagon and the Pentagon called the army, the Air Force and.

B

At a quarter to six, the house was surrounded.

B

Inside the cousins sat panicked at natural Shirley told her relatives be nice, so they look a little different, I'm sure they're friendly. She said as she served the appetizers. Don't worry mo at it. If those aliens make one false move, they've had it so relax mo, heard, humming and ran to the window. Yelled the doorbell rang. Everyone froze cousin, Edith fainted.

B

If you leave now you'll just miss the traffic mo, try to usher them out so guys. What's new, have you been to Venus yet I hear it's hot. In the summer cousin Sheldon, the loudmouth asked the spacemen Sat. Well we're on our way to check out a new planet.

B

He whispered to cousin Harriet in our Shirley calls. Oh please. Before dinner, we have something for you: it'll knock. You out. The visitors presented, their box hits a bomb, it's a gas, it's a laser Eddy, Eldon fainted, again soldiers burst into the house. Tanks pointed their guns.

B

So later, after a nice dinner at Shirley and Moe's, after all, the soldiers, pilots, Marines, FBI men and the cousins had said their goodbyes. The visitors from outer space, made a momentous announcement.

B

Moe and Shirley from Earth they spoke. We have traveled across the great vast sea of space past black holes through wormholes we've seen galaxies after endless galaxies, but those were the best meatballs we've ever tasted. You should taste her pot roast Moe bragged humans from Belmar, the spacemen continued. We have chosen you to cater our sister's wedding, Oh, Shirley exclaimed, but but Moe tried to speak we'd be delighted. Shirley said as she served some cold drinks and where will the happy occasion take place? She said on our new planet.

B

The spaceman said that planet next to next to most uttered where's next to low, looked upset. Next to Uranus they answered. Moe was upset, oh I, love, Uranus, said Shirley, not that we've ever been there, but I hear it's very nice. Then it's settled. The spaceman declared we'll pick you up tomorrow at 8:00, Thank, You, moe and Shirley. The two guests made their cheerful farewells and left.

B

But mo was not cheerful later. That night is surely packed his socks and underwear he fumed Shirl. Do you know where Uranus is so it's a little far said? Surely you'll take a magazine but Shirl an alien wedding? It could be dangerous, asserted mo. We survived your cousin, Harriet's wedding. Didn't we Shirley said we're going and that's that.

B

In the morning at 8:00, a flying saucer landed in MO and Shirley's backyard mo and Shirley were waiting with 27 suitcases. I took a few sweaters in case it gets chilly at night. Shirley explained.

B

Mo and Shirley boarded the saucer with and with considerable strain it lifted off towards outer space. Oh.

B

They had barely passed the moon when mo asked. Are we there? Yet? We just left said this basement Oh said mo well, um so many peanuts mo Shirley interrupted you eat too many nuts here I have tuna fish, a jar of pickles, some potato chips, coleslaw he's a chicken and some delicious herring from Murray's. They have the best fish, a meatloaf sandwich and cake.

B

Mo picked at the chicken, but he was not really hungry. He was worried very worried sure he spoke up. What, if the aliens don't like us, what if they don't like humans, what if they don't want your noodle pudding mo, is beside himself. The spaceman couldn't help but overhear mo of Earth. They said we assure you. Our people are gentle peace-loving race. We get along with everyone, don't worry you and Shirley will be welcomed with open arms at that the saucer softly landed and mo and Shirley exited the ship.

B

The crowd screamed as they spotted Moe and Shirley. It's.

B

No wait: cried the two spaceman they're, not Martians, they're caterers, but it was too late. A nervous uncle fired his ray gun at Moe and Moe and surely fell to the ground.

B

What are you, nuts, the spaceman, said to Uncle Irving they're from Bellmore so clip my nails said the uncle to me. They look like Martians.

B

Moe and Shirley were rushed to the hospital where 492 members of the spaceman's immediate family waited hoping and praying for their speedy recovery.

A

B

Caterers sobbed the bride-to-be know what I have to have a wedding. She cried suddenly Shirley woke up now food. She mumbled at a wedding Maho wake up. She gave moe a nudge. We have meatballs to make.

B

The ray from the Raygun having cured their arthritis wore off and mo and Shirley, went right to work in one day. Shirley had made so many meatballs. It seemed as if there was enough food to feed the whole planet and there was the whole planet came to the wedding. We love Shirley's. Meatballs said the happy spaceman. Yes, the wedding was beautiful, mo and Shirley and the entire population of next to ate and schmoozed and danced the night away.

B

The next morning after breakfast and a little shopping, the spaceman brought Moe and Shirley back to Belle. More so, do me a favor said: Shirley call when you get home just so I know you got there and please take a sandwich. It's not good to blast-off empty stomach. Well, miss! You said this basement tearfully, we'll miss you too said mo and Shirley, and with one last hug company was gone.

B

The end that company's going alright, so I have another book and I have a rhyme here that I want to teach you. You probably know about five little monkeys and five ducks, but we have five flying saucer men all right. So get your five fingers up. Five flying saucer men came out the spaceship door, one did a somersault and then there were how many for four flying saucer men as odd as they could be one fell backwards.

B

And then there were three three flying saucer men with skin of green and blue one rode on a space monster, and then there were two two flying saucer men having so much fun one beamed up, and then there was one one flying saucer man on earth all alone. He missed all his friends, so he went on home. That's our five flying saucer men, five, four, three, two one! None left alright!

B
