0:00 Luna slid down a long, silver thread.0:03 It shimmered all the way from the moon.0:07 Just last night, that same moon watched over Leo the Little Leaf on his big adventure.0:16 Tonight, it was Luna’s turn.0:18 She was a tiny moonbeam, full of curiosity.0:23 The big, round moon gave her a gentle nudge.0:27 "Go on, little one," it seemed to whisper.0:31 "The world is sleeping." Luna landed as softly as a bit of fluff.0:38 She found herself in a wide, quiet meadow.0:42 The grass was cool and damp with dew.0:46 Each blade wore a tiny droplet like a diamond.0:50 Luna danced from one to the next.0:54 She made them all sparkle, just for a moment.0:58 In the tall grass, something stirred.1:02 A little field mouse was curled in a tight ball, dreaming.1:07 Its tiny whiskers twitched.1:10 Luna tiptoed closer.1:12 She didn't want to wake the little creature.1:17 She just wanted to see.1:19 So she softened her light, making it warm and gentle, like a tiny blanket.1:26 She painted a soft glow around the mouse's nest of grass.1:32 The mouse sighed a happy, sleepy sigh.1:36 Luna giggled a silent, shimmery giggle.1:40 Next, she floated over to a still, dark pond.1:44 The water was like a piece of fallen night sky.1:49 A family of ducks slept near the edge.1:53 Their heads were tucked under their wings.1:57 Luna dipped her toes in the water.2:00 Ripples of soft light spread out in perfect circles.2:05 They washed over the sleeping ducks.2:09 One little duckling quacked softly in its sleep.2:14 It must have been dreaming of a sunny day.2:18 Luna saw a lily pad floating all by itself.2:22 A big green frog was asleep on top.2:26 He looked very serious, even in his dreams.2:30 Luna decided he needed a little light.2:34 She spun around him, leaving a trail of silver dust.2:39 It settled on his bumpy green back.2:42 For a moment, he looked like a royal frog, covered in jewels.2:48 Luna felt a warmth inside her.2:51 This was a wonderful job.2:54 The air began to change.2:56 A soft, rosy color touched the edge of the sky.3:01 The moon was calling her home.3:04 Her light was needed back in the sky.3:08 It was time for the sun to have its turn.3:12 Luna felt a gentle pull, a quiet tug on that silver thread.3:18 Her adventure was almost over for the night.3:22 She took one last look around.3:25 The meadow was still quiet.3:28 The pond was still dark.3:30 But now, they held little pockets of her light.3:35 Little reminders of her visit.3:38 She had shared her glow with the sleeping world.3:43 And the world had shared its quiet peace with her.3:48 It was a fair trade.3:50 She climbed back up her silver thread.3:53 Higher and higher she went.3:56 The world grew smaller below.3:59 The sleeping mouse, the quiet ducks, the jeweled frog...4:04 they all became tiny specks.4:07 Soon, she was back home, nestled in the curve of the big, round moon.4:14 She was tired now.4:16 A happy, peaceful kind of tired.4:19 She had traveled so far.4:21 She had seen so much.4:24 Now, tucked in safe and sound, Luna closed her eyes.4:29 The moon held her close, just as you are held close in your warm bed.4:36 And just like Luna, it is time for you to rest, too.4:41 The whole world is dreaming.4:44 And now, my dear, so can you.
