Hello friends and welcome to Sleep Tight Stories.

This story is about a cat named Lucy, who loves to read more than anything else.

Her father is worried about her and wants her to get outside and play and make friends.

But Lucy prefers to stay inside because she is not the same as all the other cats.

Lucy hides in her room until her father says she needs to go with him the next day to

the cream shop.

Lucy gets up and goes, but she's not very happy about it.

Lucy enters stubby tail.

Lucy was sitting in her library on a hot, sunny, summer day doing what she always did,

reading.

Lucy loves to read more than anything in the world.

Didn't matter what kind of story it was, mystery, science fiction, fantasy, fairy tales,

almost anything at all.

Lucy loves to read so much that she would often forget to eat or go to bed if her father

didn't remind her.

Lucy was a tabby mix and lived with her father, a great big main cat, in a large house,

in a tree-lined neighborhood, full of all kinds of other animals her age.

Her world was a magical one, where all the animals lived in almost perfect harmony.

Her father came in to check on her as he always did.

He worked just across the street in a small neighborhood, milk, and cream shop.

And in the summer, when school was out, he was able to pop over to see her frequently.

Lucy, it's a beautiful day outside, and many of the kids are outside playing games
