Hi, how are you today, I, miss Rocky and welcome to San Bruno library presents once upon a time, and today, I'm gonna read you some fun stories about the moon and the stars and the sand and the Sun. So, let's start with our song, our greeting song, hello, my friends, ready hello, my friends, hello, my friends. How are you, how are you very well I? Thank you very well I. Thank you. How about you, how about you all right? How about we sing another song? How about the more we read together?

B

Instead of the more we get together, we could sing the more we read together. The more we read together together together, the more we read together, the happier we'll be because my friends are your friends and your friends are my friends. So the more we read together, the happier we'll be all right very good.

B

Today, I'm gonna start with the first story: how to catch a star by Oliver, Jeffers, I love this author he's great he's, got a few books here at the library.

B

Once there was a boy and the boy loved stars very much.

B

Every night the boy watched the stars from his window and wished he had one of his very own.

B

He dreamed of how the star would be his friend, they would play hide and go, seek and take long walks together.

B

The boy decided he would try to catch one, and he thought that getting up early in the morning would be the best. Because then the star would be tired from being up in the sky all night, the next day he set out at sunrise, but he could not see a star anywhere. So he sat down and waited for one to appear.

B

And he waited and he waited, and then he had some lunch and then he waited and after dinner he waited some more and finally, just before the Sun was about to go away, he saw a star.

B

The boy tried to jump up and grab it, but he could not jump high enough so very carefully. He climbed to the top of the tallest tree he could find, but the star was still way out of reach.

B

He thought he might lasso the star with the life preserver from his father's boat, but it was much too heavy for him to carry.

B

If only he did fly up in a spaceship and just grab the star, but the only spaceship he owned was made of paper and it didn't fly well at all.

B

Perhaps he could get a seagull to help him fly up into the sky to reach the star, but the only seagull he could find did not want to help him.

B

The boy worried he would never catch a star just then he noticed something floating in the water and it was the prettiest star he had ever seen just the baby star. It must have fallen from the sky.

B

He tried to fish it out with his hands, but when the boy reached out to touch the star it just rippled through his fingers.

B

Now the boy was sad, but in his heart the wish just wouldn't give up and slowly he began walking home and that's when he saw it washed up on the bright golden sand.

B

The boy had caught a star, a star of his very own, the.

B

End there he is reading to his star great story. I like that story, all right. So let's do another song. Let's do let's sing twinkle twinkle ready. Let's have your hands up like this, like the stars and we're going to sing twinkle twinkle ready, twinkle twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky, twinkle twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are very good? Okay, let's read another story, and this one is called the Sun is my favorite star by Frank Ashe.

B

Did you know the Sun is a star? That's the biggest star. There is in the universe.

B

The Sun is my favorite star in the morning it comes to my window and wakes me up.

B

While I have breakfast, it sends the mist away and dries up the morning. Dew.

B

Then it waits for me to come out and play. The Sun is my favorite star.

B

Gliding through the trees above my head.

B

It follows me everywhere: I, go it lights, its light is bright and hot and it peeks through a hole in the fence, and it casts a shadow on the wall.

B

The Sun is my favorite star. Sometimes it plays hide-and-seek with me and sometimes it goes away and brings me back a big bouquet, a rainbow.

B

The Sun is my favorite star in the evening. It paints pretty pictures in the sky. For me.

B

Even in a night, it sends some light to keep me company.

B

All stars in the sky are beautiful, but so far the Sun is my favorite star, V and alright is this on your favorite star? Maybe alright, why don't we count to ten we'll? Do our fingers, let's count to ten and we'll sing our two little hands two little fingers. Let's count, one two, three, four: five: six, seven, eight, nine, ten very good. Let's count two little hands. Ten little fingers two little hands. Ten little fingers two little hands.

B

Ten little fingers count along with me, one two: three little fingers: four: five: six little fingers, seven, eight nine little fingers and one more makes ten very good. Alright. So for now we're gonna take a break, go, get a drink of water and then come back and we'll read some more stories and sing. Some more songs, alright, see you in a little bit.

Hi and welcome back to once upon a time so we're gonna do a song before we go into reading again we're gonna do a little song about the Sun and it goes with the tune of row row row your boat, and it goes like this bright sun shining down shining on the ground. What a lovely face you have: yellow, big and round.

B

Let's do that again: ready bright sun shining down shining on the ground, what a lovely face you have: yellow, big and round. Alright, very good! We're gonna read another story: this was about the moon, bringing down the moon by Jonathan Emmett.

B

Bringing down the moon.

B

Hot-Diggity explained mole as he buried out of the ground one night. Whatever is that the moon was hanging in the sky above him like a bright silver coin and mole thought it was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen.

B

Whatever it is, I must have it mole said to himself I, know: I'll jump up and pull it down and he starts to run. Stop thump, thumpety bump mole was so busy jumping. He didn't think about the noise he was making and he woke up rabbit in her burrow.

B

Mole said rabbit: what on earth do you think you're doing? Oh hello, rabbit said mole I'm trying to pull down that shiny thing. You mean the moon ass rabbit. Oh, so that's what it's called said. The mole you'll! Never do! That said rabbit it's not as close as it looks.

B

But Maul would not give up. I know he thought I'll get a stick and poke it down and he found a long stick and poked it up at the moon and swish swish swish swish mole was so busy poking that he tripped over hedgehog in his bed of leaves.

B

Mul grunted hedgehog. What level are you up to hello? Hedgehog, said Maul I'm, trying to poke down the moon. hmm You'll. Never do that said hedgehog. It's not as close as it looks.

B

But mole would not give up. I know he thought I'll throw something at it and knock it down and he found some acorns and threw them at the moon. Plink plink plink any plink ouch said squirrel whoa. Have you gone nuts? Oh hello squirrel said mole I'm trying to knock down the moon. You'll. Never do that said squirrel. It's not as close as you think.

B

But ou wanted the moon so badly. He would not give up. I know he thought I'll climb a tree and carry it down well. Maul had never climbed the tree before it was hard work and he was scared to be so far from the ground, but he kept on going until he saw the moon resting in the leaves above him.

B

Mole stretched out his paws, but just when he thought he had the moon. Oh no, he's slipped! Oh! Oh! Oh mole, tumbled down and landed and splash in the middle of a puddle.

B

Hot-Diggity drat thought mole I almost had at that time, but then he noticed something floating in the puddle beside him. It was pale and wrinkled and mole recognized it at once. The moon whispered mole. He must have fallen down with me and he reached out to pick up the moon, but as soon as he touched it, it broke into pieces and vanished.

B

Mole sat in the puddle and was crying Oh rabbit, Hedgehog and squirrel came running up. Are you all right, mole ass, rabbit, I'm, all right stopped mole, but the moon isn't I pulled it down a minute broke and it was so beautiful and now I'll never see it again. Oh.

B

Mole said rabbit, you couldn't have pulled down the moon and you couldn't have broken it either said Hedgehog and you'll certainly see it again said squirrel look high up in the sky. Above them the moon was coming out from behind a cloud, Oh whispered mole and it's just as beautiful as ever mole rabbit, Hedgehog and squirrel stood and stared up at the moon together, it is beautiful, said rabbit. Oh yes, very beautiful, said Hedgehog.

B

Oh yes, beautiful indeed said squirrel yes said mole, but it's not as close as it looks the end bringing down the moon all right.

B

So let's do another song! I love this song. It's just gonna be a short version of the long song from the Lory BRR nner band. We have her CDs here at the library, she's, a wonderful artist and we're gonna sing. One line is really nice. It's about the moon and it goes like this. You could put your hands around like this, like the moon, moon, moon, moon, shining, bright moon, moon, moon, my night light moon, moon, moon I can see moon, moon, moon, you're, taking care of me.

B

Let's do it again: ready moon moon, moon shining, bright moon, moon moon, my night light moon, moon, moon I can see moon, moon, moon, you're, taking care of me all right, very good, she's, a great artist, Laurie Berkner band, it's great seating! Okay! So let's do another story, and this time we're gonna go to space green Wilma frog in space.

B

Can you imagine a frog in space.

B

One morning, Wilma woke to hear a buzzing and the sky.

B

She hopped into the air to catch a tasty. Little fly, Oh who's coming, an alien family landed needing water for their ship. An alien child came out to play and he took a little dip.

B

Finally, greenwall Maz breakfast landed on the ground carefully. She crept up trying not to make a sound.

B

Suddenly the spaceship plucked her up into the air and pulled her in and then it rose and flew away from there Oh No. They took the wrong the wrong frog. Child poor Wilma at the window watched her little pond retreat. But then she heard her favorite words time to eat.

B

I fixed our favorite Martian, bugs the alien mother said, but you can't eat until I. Take this helmet off your head and the mom says: eat.

B

It must have been the pond water that turned our blue car green just get the rest just get some rest. While we turn on the health of mount machine.

B

Robot doctors tried to find out what the problem was and only Wilma noticed a familiar little buzz.

B

She chased it all around the room and out into the ship she hopped across the flight controls and things began to tip the spaceship, went from warp speed into boogie-woogie drive. It bounced off planet circled stars and fell into a dive.

B

Green Wilma grabbed the nearest thing and held on to it. Tight the ship flew back the way it came, her home rose into sight.

B

Back at Miller's pond poor blue gir hid inside a tree, but when he heard a sound, he knew he hopped out out to sea he's very excited his family's back overhead. The aliens booted Wilma out the door. They picked up the little blue ger and departed with a roar.

B

Green Wilma felt quite certain. It had all had been a dream. No way had she gone up in space as real as it might seem. hmm Was that right there she's wondering. But what exactly was this thing that shot a pretty being.

B

The and and that's green Wilma in space, all right, okay, so let's do one more song: let's do open shut them ready. Can you open your hands and shut them? Oh Finn, shut them open, shut them, give a little clap, clap, clap, open, shut them, open, shut them put them on your lap, flap flap, very good. This is it again, Oh been shot them open, shut them, give a little clap, clap, clap, open, shut them open shut then put them on your lap lap lap all right, very good.

B

Okay, we have time for one more quick story: the last one good night, moon all right good night in the Great Green Room there was a telephone and a red balloon and a picture of the cow jumping over the moon, and there were three little bears sitting on chairs and two little kittens and a pair of mittens and a little toy house and a young mouse squeak and a comb and a brush and a bowl full of mush and a quiet old lady whispering, hush good night room.

B
