Michael loves puzzles! Big puzzles. Little puzzles. Red pieces, blue pieces, yellow pieces too. He puts them together all day long. Click, click, click!
But look! The moon is up. It peeks through the round window. The moon says, "Hello, Michael. It is bedtime soon." Oh no! Michael does not want to stop!
"Not yet!" says Michael. "I love my puzzles!" He holds a bright red piece tight. But his eyes feel heavy. Blink, blink, blink.
Time to help the puzzles go to sleep! Michael picks up a red piece. "Goodnight, red piece." He puts it in the box. Tap, tap, tap. Can you say goodnight too?
Michael picks up a blue piece. "Goodnight, blue piece." He puts it in the box. Tap, tap, tap. He picks up a yellow piece. "Goodnight, yellow piece." Tap, tap, tap.
All the puzzle pieces are snug in their box. "Sleep well, little puzzles," Michael whispers. Doing the same things each night helps Michael feel calm and ready. What comes next?
Brush, brush, brush! Michael brushes his teeth. Up and down. Round and round. Sparkle, sparkle! His teeth are clean and bright, just like little stars.
Now Michael climbs into his fluffy bed. He pulls up his starry blue blanket. Tuck, tuck, tuck. So soft! So warm! So cozy!
Michael closes his eyes. He takes a slow, deep breath in. Shhhhh. And a slow breath out. Shhhhh. In and out. Slow and soft. Can you breathe with Michael?
Shhh... what is that? The puzzle pieces begin to dance! They float and spin in Michael's dream. Red, blue, yellow — swirling, twirling in the sky!
The dancing pieces come together. Click, click, click! They make a magical picture — a bright, sunny garden with flowers and butterflies! What new puzzle will Michael see tomorrow?
Michael smiles in his sleep. The moon watches softly through the round window. Tomorrow is a brand new day, full of brand new puzzles to play. But right now, the night is warm, the stars are bright, and the best dreams are just beginning.
