Hello and welcome back to Koala Moon, a podcast of original children's bedtime stories

and meditations designed to make bedtime a dream.

Back to tonight's story.

It features two of our favourite funny and furry friends, Hector and Sonny, but it also stars

a couple of cat characters too.

The first one has been suggested by listeners Ariela and Agna who live in Sheffield with their

own little scaredy cat called Bonnie.

Their mum Abbey, great name, wrote to us asking if perhaps Coco could help Bonnie get

over her fears and our super talented writer Susanna has taken on the mission.

And just to make the challenge a little tougher for herself, she also decided to include

listener Charlie K's pet, a tuxedo cat called Taco.

As he really wanted Taco to meet Hector and Sonny and to go on an adventure with them.

So as a thank you for all your loyal listening, here it is, all wrapped up into a mega fun Halloween

special.
