EVERY night as I go to bed,

I see funny-looking things
bouncing about on their head.

All noisy and WeiRd

cRaZy and truly for sure.

Was I day-dreaming

OR

did I need some

cure?

Some were and

FAT, some

were

TALL,

and some were
really,
really,
small.

They were noisy and
rowdy,
funny-looking things.

Some with pink, hairy tails

and some with bright

purple

wings.

Oh,

Good
Golly
Gosh!

What if they spotted me?

What would I do?

And

how could I

flee ?

And if I told,

who would ever believe?

CRAZY They’d say I’m

and what would that

achieve?

One night I decided to be

brave and bold

So, I told my dad
but he began to scold.

“ There are no such things as
these creatures, my boy.”

“ Now scurry on up to bed.
Perhaps it’s your imagination,
or that old toy ! ”

I sulked and sighed,
with very teary eyes.

“I’m not making this up, and
I’m not speaking lies ! ”.

I dragged myself to bed

that night,

thinking...

Please someone

HELP
ME

before another fright.

As always, they were playing

all over my room

AGAIN,

All crazy, and weird and
most definitely
insane.
They jumped and sang and danced
all night long.
So, I hid with Teddy and
I tried to stay
strong.

But then I screamed out loud,

and mum came in.
“What’s going on my son ?

You look as though

you’ve jumped

out of

your

skin ”

“You’re paler than pale,
and you’re cold to the touch.

WHAT’S GOING ON ?

You have not
told
me
much.”

I grabbed my mum
and held her tight.

“Mum, mum !

I cannot sleep at

night ! ”

“There are noisy, weird,

funny-looking things

around my bed.

I tried to be brave,
but I got terribly

scared

instead.”

“What if they poked me,
or stung me,
or took me away?

Dad said there were no such

creatures

but they’re here

AGAIN

today.”

“ PLEASE

believe me,
I am not lying.

I just want them gone.
Please, please !
I have been
trying.”

Then mum smiled and

switched the light on.

She gave me a warm hug

and shouted,

gone ! “ Creatures, be ”

She looked at me as
though she knew,

And then softly whispered,
“I’ve seen these funny-looking things
too,

actually quite a few .”

I could not believe

what my mum was saying.

Finally, someone who ME…

BELIEVED

I was always praying.

“ Are those funny-looking things
gone now my son ? ”

YES !“Yes mummy,

Please tell me.

HOW ”
was that done ?

So, that night

mum very carefully

explained,

that I had to learn

and

practice

over and over

again.

LIFT LIGHTyour inside your body

to FORTY-SEVEN THOUSAND

watts or more,

and blast those

annoying creatures

from beneath

the

floor.

“ Do this every night

and you will see.

no more crazy, noisy,

hairy things

tickling
your
knee.”

From that night onwards
I did as she said,
And guess what ?

No more funny-looking

things playing

under my bed !
