0:00 Under Leo’s bed, something was glowing.0:03 It wasn’t a bright, scary light.0:06 It was soft.0:07 A gentle pulse of white, like a tiny heart beating in the dark.0:13 Now, Leo had seen strange things in his room before.0:18 He’d just figured out the mystery of the Wobble-Wobble Under the Bed last week, and that turned out to be MUCH less wobbly than it sounded.0:32 So he wasn't scared.0:34 Well.0:34 Maybe just a little bit.0:36 He slid out from under his warm blankets.0:40 His bare feet touched the cool wood floor.0:44 One… two… three quiet steps.0:47 He knelt down and lifted the corner of his bedspread.0:52 There it was.0:53 The glow wasn't coming from a monster, or a lost toy.0:58 It was coming from a small, perfectly smooth, grey pebble.1:04 It looked like any other pebble you might find at the park.1:09 Except, you know.1:11 It was glowing.1:12 Leo reached a hesitant finger out and poked it.1:17 It wasn’t hot.1:18 It wasn’t cold.1:20 It was just… a pebble.1:22 He scooped it up into his palm.1:25 It felt heavy and real.1:27 The light pulsed against his skin, a soft rhythm.1:32 Thump-thump… thump-thump.1:34 He held it up to his ear.1:36 Could he hear anything?1:38 Yes.1:39 A very, VERY quiet hum.1:41 So quiet, it was almost not there.1:44 Like a sleepy bumblebee dreaming of flowers.1:48 What WAS this thing?1:50 He stood up and carried it over to his desk lamp.1:55 He turned it over and over.1:58 There were no buttons.2:00 No switches.2:01 No little door for a battery.2:04 He tried tapping it.2:06 The light kept pulsing.2:08 He tried shaking it gently.2:10 The light kept pulsing.2:13 It was a mystery pebble.2:15 And Leo was a mystery investigator.2:18 This was his most important case yet.2:22 He was just about to put the pebble down when his thumb brushed against something on the side.2:31 A marking.2:32 It was so tiny he almost missed it.2:35 He squinted.2:36 It was a drawing… a little crescent moon, with a tiny, sleepy, smiling face carved into it.2:45 Awww.2:45 As he stared at the little moon face, the pebble in his hand gave one extra-BRIGHT pulse.2:54 And then, a voice, no louder than a single dry leaf skittering on the sidewalk, whispered right in his ear.3:04 "Full." Leo gasped.3:06 He looked at the pebble.3:08 Then he turned and looked out his window.3:12 And there it was.3:13 Hanging in the dark velvet sky was a giant, brilliant, perfectly round moon.3:21 A FULL moon.3:22 Ohhh.3:22 Leo understood.3:24 This wasn't a scary pebble.3:26 This wasn't a spooky ghost pebble.3:30 This was a Moon Pebble.3:32 It was a friend of the moon.3:34 And it just got a little excited and glowed whenever its biggest, bestest friend came out to shine.3:44 The tiny hum wasn't a secret code… it was the pebble purring.3:50 Leo smiled.3:51 He walked over to his windowsill and placed the Moon Pebble there, nestled between a dinosaur and a toy car.4:01 It pulsed its happy, gentle light, a perfect little beacon in the dark.4:08 It wasn't a mystery anymore.4:10 It was a nightlight.4:12 And as Leo climbed back into bed, the soft glow from the windowsill made friendly shadows dance on his wall, all of them waving goodnight.
