Welcome to send me to sleep.

The place to find relaxing stories for a good night's rest.

My name's Andrew. Thanks for joining me. Tonight I'll be continuing the Story Girl by

L. M. Montgomery. Chapter 17, The Proof of the Pudding and Chapter 18, How Kissing was discovered.

In the previous chapters, after Dan had only just recovered from eating the poisonous berries,

he was goaded by Felicity to eat them once again, making everyone fear he may die,

though thankfully seeming to be unaffected later

that evening.

The next day, all the children were terrified when Peter had heard a ghostly bell in the

house, which turned out only to be the old grandfather clock, much to Uncle Roger's

amusement.

Before we begin tonight's story, let's get ourselves ready for sleep.

Start by taking a deep, relaxing bread.
