Bedtime Stories (Storytelling Library: December, 2006)
Onion soup makes me happy
'cause
it's my favorite food.
I eat it all the time,
and my mommy likes it,
and my little sister likes it,
and my dad does not like it.
I like how it tastes.
It tastes
soft, 'cause it's in the soup
strong, 'cause it makes your cry
and like onions, 'cause it is onions.
It's hot, hot, hot.
So hot, that you'll burn your tongue if you're not careful,
so be careful…
unless your parents say don't be careful
because they don't like you
and they want you to burn your mouth.
But don't listen to them,
I like you,
and I don't want you to burn your mouth.
Have fun,
– Josie

The Crazy Candy Man
was crazy
because
he never cleaned up
his store.
It had candy all over the floor.
Clean candy
on a
clean floor.
Not sticky,
icky,
nor sicky.
His candy shop was filled
with Smarties,
and M&M's,
and chocolates,
and gummy worms,
and gummy bears,
and gummy cherries,
and bubblegum,
and caramel.
And all the schools,
and the children,
and the grown-ups
wanted to buy
The Crazy Candy Man's
candy.
Have fun,
– Josie

This great story was written by P. R. Ramachander,
a wonderful storyteller from Bangalore, India.
There was a rich man in the city of Varanasi. He had a son called Avinash.
From his birth, Avinash was not interested in learning anything, so Avinash's father decided to send him to Nalanda to learn under a great Guru.
After one year Avinash's father asked him, “What have you learned,” and Avinash replied, “I have learnt the language of the dogs.”
The rich man was very unhappy and decided to send him to study under a great Guru in Ujjain.
After one year when the rich man asked Avinash, “What he has learned?” Avinash replied, “I have learned the language of the birds.”
The rich man was terribly unhappy and decided to send him to learn under a Guru in Kanchi. This time Avinash replied, “I have learned the language of fishes.”
The rich man got very angry with Avinash and asked his people to take Avinash to the forest and leave him there.
(1st two verses of classic holiday song, "Sleigh Ride" performed by thehipcola)
Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ing
Ring ting tingle-ing too
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you
Outside the snow is falling
And friends are calling "You Hoo"
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a sleigh ride together with you
Have fun,

Do you know all the words to this popular holiday song?
Read the rest of the lyrics and prepare to sing along!
This is a special gift, written on the 23rd as a gift for the 24th.
Everyone's rushing and pushing around,
Got things to buy got to head downtown,
But I don't have money and no where to be,
And I'm happier at home having you with me.
If I had money I know what I'd do,
Well I'd pile it all up and spend time with you,
For to buy anything else it just wouldn't be wise,
I've got all I need when I'm lost in your eyes.
I've got a wish list with twelve different things,
From gadgets and gear to being able to sing,
But the only wish I know will come true,
Is to wake up as happy as I am with you.
Others may wonder and others may cry,
“What happens to me, to us, when we die!”
But I've seen all I need to run out of life,
I’ve spent a moment lost in your eyes.
I've all I could ask for on this Christmas Day,
And if I had anything more ah then what could I say?
I've got family and friends, good love on the rise,
I have you and lost in your eyes.
