Speaker 1 (00:02):
Hello friends, and welcome to bedtime stories with mister Jim. Oh.
I was just getting ready for bed, are you as well?
Oh good? I hope you brushed your teeth and found
all of your comfy things like pillows and blankets and stuffies.

(00:27):
Oh yes, oh good. Well, as long as you have
all those things ready, then it's time for our story.
But first we must close our eyes so that we
can travel to an imaginary world. She floated around on

(00:58):
papery wings. As soon as the sun had set, the
moonlight shone through her green fairy wings and twinkled on
her clothes. See every night she left her fairy kingdom
with her wand and tiny bag. Her job was very important.

(01:21):
All of the children knew her, even you, but no
one has ever seen her as she slipped under pillows
and exchanged teeth for little gifts. The tooth Fairy was
as small as a bumblebee, but as bright and quiet

(01:44):
as a firefly. Looking out at the night sky. You
may have seen her before without even realizing it. Maybe
she was dancing among the lightning bugs or chasing a
shooting star. You may have mistaken her for a flash

(02:06):
of light in the darkness, but that was all right
with her. The tooth Fairy did her best work without
being seen. No one even knew the tooth Fairy's name,
since no one had ever even spoken to her before.

(02:27):
On this night, just like all the others before it,
the tooth Fairy left her fairy kingdom to begin her
night's work. She fluttered past trees of hooting owls and
waved hello to the red fox in the meadow. The
animals all knew her and looked forward to her arrival.

(02:53):
Even the bug eating bats did not mistake her for food,
and along beside her for a bit. Then the tooth
Fairy spotted the vibrant green of a luna moth. She
swooped down onto its back and caught a ride into town.

(03:15):
She needed to save her energy for all of the
homes she would be visiting. A luna moth landed gracefully
against the first window, and the tooth Fairy patted the
moth in thankfulness, pointing her wand at the window. The

(03:37):
glass at once shimmered and flowed like water within the frame.
She was able to walk right through it into this
little girl's bedroom. You see, Natalie was fast asleep under

(04:01):
her cozy comforter. Her head resting on a pink, fluffy pillow,
The tooth Fairy knew that under that pillow was something
very special. It was the first tooth the little girl
had ever lost. Soon Natalie would have a strong, new

(04:24):
adult tooth in its place. The tooth Fairy fluttered to
the pillow and waved her wand a light shone from
underneath as the tooth began to wiggle its way out.
It peeked out of the edge of the pillow and
wiggled fast for a few seconds before popping right out

(04:49):
and doing a little spin in the air. The tooth
Fairy reached out, plucked the tooth from the air, tucked
it safely into her bag. Tapping her wand on the pillow,
glitter and coins appeared underneath with a silent poof. The

(05:12):
tooth Fairy whispered, could not not al and turned to
fly back through the rippling window. When she heard a small,
sleepy voice respond good night, tooth Fairy. The tooth Fairy

(05:33):
flew in place like a hummingbird. Wait. No child had
ever spoken to her before. This was something new. Would
the little girl remember? Would she tell her friends? Did
she want to be the tooth Fairy's friend too. That

(05:56):
sounded nice, she thought. The tooth Fairy flew over to
the little girl's pillow and took a seat. Natalie smiled
and her tooth. While her missing tooth was now on display,
She rattled off many questions, wondering how the tooth fairy

(06:17):
did her job and what it was like to be
a fairy. The tooth Fairy just smiled and waited for
her to finish. Then she said, were lurlatasu. The little
girl nodded enthusiastically, and the tooth Fairy waved her wand
in a circle around Natalie. Natalie became smaller and smaller

(06:44):
until she was standing next to the tooth Fairy. The
Luna moth flew in and landed beside the two of them.
Natalie climbed on and the moth followed. As the tooth
Fairy led the way through the shimmery window glass and
out into the night air. Natalie thought the window looked

(07:08):
like a waterfall as they flew through it. She turned
around to catch a glimpse and watched it hardened to
glass once more. Together they fluttered around from house to house,
the tooth Fairy on her own wings and Natalie on
the Luna Moth. At the last house, the tooth Fairy

(07:31):
let Natalie borrow her wand Natalie waved it at the
little boy's pillow, and the two teeth wiggled out from
underneath it. They danced around the room before floating into
the tooth Fairy's bag. Despite the amount of teeth that entered,
the bag never grew larger. Natalie wondered if it was

(07:54):
a direct portal to the fairy Kingdom. Once the teeth
were out of s I, Natalie tapped the pillow once
twice and Glitter escaped from beneath with a slight hop,
but the boys slept on. After returning the wand to
the Tooth Fairy, Natalie climbed up onto the moth once more.

(08:19):
They flew back through the rippling window, the night's mission
now complete. She watched the sleepy homes pass by as
they flew toward her own. The darkened windows made the
homes look like they had their eyes closed sleeping themselves,

(08:39):
and soon her eyes began to do the same. Snuggled
up against the fuzzy back of the moth, Natalie began
to doze. She dreamed of fairy kingdoms with gleaming white castles,
green wings fluttering about, and beautiful moths who came to visit.

(09:02):
Back through the window and into the little girl's room,
they flew, placing the sleeping Natalie gently down on her
pillow before the tooth Fairy waved her wand once more
Natalie grew to her little girl's size, still small, but
much larger than the fairy. The tooth Fairy tapped the

(09:27):
pillow twice, and under the pillow appeared a special thank
you for Natalie. Then she flew out into the night,
passed all the quiet homes and sleepy woods, and back
to her fairy kingdom to rest. The end. Well, my friends,

(09:49):
as we close our eyes and dripped off to sleep,
may you have very sweet dreams. Good night, my friends,
