Good Night Huckle
"It's time to go to bed," said Huckles's mom. "Go into the bathroom to brush your teeth and wash your face. After that go into your bedroom and put on your pajamas.
"Okay," said Huckle.''
He went into the bathroom and he thought to himself: "This is boring. Every night, I do the same thing. What can I do to maek getting ready for bed more interesting?"
As Huckle got out the toothpaste, he thought of a new idea. He decided to put the toothpaste on his hair brush and to use that to brush his teeth. It was hard to stuff the whole brush into his mouth, but somehow he managed.
"Hey," he thought, "this way I can get all of my teeth brushed at the same time!"
After brushing his teeth with this silly way, Huckle reached for the soap to wash his face. Since he use that same old soap everynight, he decided to think of another thing to use to wash his face.
"Hmmm....Why don't I use the toothpaste for my face? If it cleans teeth, it should also clean skin."
So he smeared toothpaste all over his face and even behind his ears, and then he rinsed it off.
"Oh what fun! And instead of using my towel to dry myself, I'll use the window curtain."
He came out of the bathroom and said to his mom. "I am doing things wacky tonight, so instead of bringing me water to drink from a cup,could I drink some water from a big, old roasting pan?"
Huckle's mom laughed, "I suppose." She went to the kitchen and brought back the large pan with a little water inside.
Huckle drank some of the water, but most of it spilled down his shirt. He and his mom laughed. Huckle then walked backwards into his bedroom until he tripped over his shoes and fell on his behind.
This silly stuff can be dangerous!" he said. Then he go up and hopped on one foot to his dresser.
"I don't want to wear pajamas tonight. May I wear something else?"
"Like what?"
"Hmmm...How about my bathing suit?"
"Okay, just for this one night."
Huckle put on his bathing suit and some goggles. He then went onto his bed and put his feet on the pillows.
"I would like you to read me the dinosaur book, please. But read it in a crazy way!"
Huckle's mom began reading: "Dinosaur big found I day one." she continued reading the sentences backwards, and show showed Huckle the pictures by holding the book upside down.
What the story was finished, Huckle's mom kissed him good night on his toes.
Huckle said, "Night good mom."
And his mom said, "Night good, tight sleep."
Huckle smiled. This time getting ready for bed was not boring at all.
