Hi everyone, my name is Otis Gray and you're listening to Sleepy.

A podcast where I read old books to help you get to sleep.

Before we get to tonight's bedtime story, I just want to say that this episode is very proudly sponsored

by Purple. We have had a long, warm summer and I know that personally it can sometimes feel like

the world is working against you getting a good night's sleep during a summer like this.

Between the heat and neighbors, partying and cars passing by all times at night, it can be tough.

But my purple mattress keeps me cool and comfortable and in the deepest of sleep,

no matter what is going on in the world outside. Purple is made with this grid, a stretchy

gel material that's amazingly supportive for your back and legs while still cushioning your

shoulders, your neck and your hips. I don't know how it does it. It's just fantastic.

Even for side sleepers like me and it keeps you so cool all night long.

Purple's comfort technology has been changing the mattress game for 15 years now and it shows.

I've honestly never slept better on any mattress ever. You can ask all my friends who have had

very unsolicited advice to buy purple mattress from me all the time. I really, really love it.
