Let’s read a fun story called “Time for Bed, Pete the Kitty,” by James Dean. It’s a touch-and-feel book, which means you can feel different textures as you read!
It’s time for Pete the Kitty to get ready for bed. His mom reminds him, “Don’t forget your cozy blanket!” Pete loves his blanket because it’s so soft and warm.
Pete takes a warm bath and has lots of fun splashing in the tub. “Look at all the bubbles!” he says. “Wow, there are so many shiny bubbles!”
After his bath, Pete brushes his teeth and wipes his face with a fuzzy towel. “Wow, that towel is so fuzzy!” he says with a smile.
Next, Pete puts on his groovy pajamas. “Wow, these pajamas are very groovy!” he says, feeling happy and comfortable.
“Now it’s time for bed,” says Mom. But Pete remembers something important. “I can’t go to bed without my teddy bear,” he says.
“Here it is,” says Dad, handing Pete his soft teddy bear. “Sleep tight and good night, Pete the Kitty.”
Pete cuddles his teddy bear and feels its softness. “Wow, that teddy bear is so soft!” he says, feeling ready to sleep.
