Did you know choosing the train over your car can cut your carbon footprint by up to two thirds?

So, one family outing at a time, one little adventurer at a time, one trip to the museum, one dinner in the city, one nap on the way home at a time.

One train journey at a time can help create a greener future.

So when will you take your next trip? Find out more at nationalrail.co.uk slash greener.

Hey, my name's Otis Gray and you're listening to Sleepy.

Podcasts where I read old books to help you get to sleep and a proud member of the Airwave Podcast Network.

I have got a wonderful snoozy bedtime story for you tonight.

But before we get to tonight's reading, I just want to thank all of our patrons on patreon.com.

Kira Platinum and Laura. Thank you both so so much for donating to the show.

If any of you don't know what I'm talking about, patreon is a website where you can go on and support artists and the work that they make.

You pledge a dollar, two dollars, maybe even five dollars a month.

And five dollars a month with Sleepy gets you access to the special Patreon poetry feed.

Where I send you poetry readings twice a month every other Monday, right to you for donating.

So if the show has helped you get some sleep and it's maybe changed the way that you operate the next day, or you shared with friends and it's helped them too.

Maybe consider giving back to the show by donating a dollar two dollars a month.

It really goes a long way.

So if you'd like to, you can go to patreon.com slash Sleepy Radio and be a part of making this show.

Thank you.

And as always, the music that you're hearing is from my good friend James Lepp Kowski and the Sleepy Cover art as it'll started by Gracie Canaan.

Well, you already know what tonight's book is.

The picture of Dorian Gray, because I just freshly unwrapped it from our page one book subscription box.

And this has been probably one of the more requested books since we started the show almost exactly a year ago.
