Hi everyone Welcome back to Stockport Libraries Storytime, Today's Storey is called A patch of Black
and it's by Deborah Rooney and deborah allwright and published by Macmillan Children's books.
Don't be afraid of the darkness, dear. Don't be afraid of the dark What can you do with a patch
of black? A moon and a silver star You can stitch
a sail for dreaming boat and catch the ocean air, here mermaids
sing on hurley rocks Well, pirates comb their hair. Don't be afraid
of the darkness dear. Don't be afraid of the dark What can you do with a patch of black?
A moon and a silver star? You can hoist
a flag on a castle pole behold Your Majesty, Let kings make toast
and queens wash up when dragons come to tea. Don't be afraid
of the darkness, dear. Don't be afraid of the dark. What can you do with the patch of black
and moon and a Silver star? You can take
a trip on a flying rug to the land where the White clouds grow and paint them bright
with rainbow stripes and wave to the world below. Don't be afraid of
the darkness dear, don't be afraid of the dark. What can you do with the patch of black, a moon
and silver star? You can make a magic
cloak of silk that will grant you wishes free, Ice cream lakes and milkshakes
streams and a chocolate money tree. Don't be afraid
of the darkness dear, don't be afraid of the dark. What can you do with a patch of black
A moon and a silver star? You can snuggle
down in a hammock bed hug a monkey by your side As crocodiles and tigers
rock a gentle jungle ride. Don't be afraid of the darkness,
dear Don't be afraid of the dark What can you do with a patch of black a moon and
a silver star You can sleep on
a pillow stuffed with dreams To sweeten your night away, And wake
to find a light blue sky A bird and a golden day.
So for our songs today I thought we'd start with twinkle Twinkle so get your stars ready. Twinkle,
twinkle little star? How I wonder what
you are, up above the world so high like
a diamond in this sky. Twinkle, twinkle little
star, How I wonder what you are.
And I thought we could finish with baa baa black sheep we will still give him some spots.
You ready? Baa Baa Black sheep have you any spots? Yes.

and some on the end of my black fluffy nose. Well, thank
