0:00.0	Hello, friends, and welcome to sleep-tight stories. This story is about a young boy named Jackie,
0:17.7	who just doesn't like to go to sleep.
0:26.8	He likes everything about bedtime, except the sleeping part.
0:31.3	One night his mom gets him to try something new.
0:34.0	Maybe this will help.
0:40.1	Jackie and the purple sheep.
0:51.4	There is that sound again, telling me that it was time for bed.
