I'm Tony Hale and today I'm gonna be reading No More Noisy Nights written by Holly L. Niner and illustrated by Guy Wolek. Alright. Let's get started. Jackson worked hard all day moving into his new house. After dinner, he relaxed. And at nine o'clock, he climbed into bed. That's when he heard... OOOEEEeeeOOOEEEeee OOOOOOOOOO "Oh dear," Jackson said. "There must be a ghost in the attic. I hope this noise stops soon." But it didn't. So Jackson stuffed his ears with cotton balls and tried to sleep. The next morning Jackson was so tired he poured orange juice on his cereal and ketchup on his toast. After breakfast, Jackson peeked into the attic. "Sorry to disturb you, Mr. Ghost, but could you please stop OOOEEEeee OOOEEEeee OOOing all night? I would like to sleep." "OOOEEEeee. I'm sorry," said the ghost. "But what else can I do?" "Let me think about that," said Jackson. Jackson thought about it all day while he unpacked. After dinner, he put a box on the attic floor. Then he relaxed in his favorite chair. And at nine o'clock, Jackson climbed into bed. That's when he heard... BOOGETY WOOGETY WOOOOOOOO "Oh dear," Jackson said. "There must be a boogey monster in the basement. I hope this noise stops soon." But it didn't. So he stuffed his ears with cotton balls, pulled on his thickest ski cap, and tried to sleep. The next morning, Jackson was so tired he could barely open his eyes to pick out his clothes. After breakfast, Jackson tiptoed down the stairs. "Sorry to disturb you, Mr. Monster, but could you please stop BOOGETY WOOGETY WOOing all night? I need to sleep." "BOOGETY WOOGETY WHOOPS," said the boogey monster. "But what else can I do?" "Let me think about that," said Jackson. Jackson thought about it all day while he unpacked. After dinner, he left a box at the bottom of the basement stairs. Then he relaxed in his favorite chair. And at nine o'clock, he climbed into bed. That's when he heard... Plink! Plink! Plunk! Plink! Plunk! Plink! Plunk! "Oh dear," said Jackson. "There must be a pixie in the piano. I hope this noise stops soon." But it didn't. So he stuffed his ears with cotton balls, pulled on his thickest ski cap, wrapped his pillow around his head, and tried to sleep. The next morning, Jackson was SO tired he washed his face with toothpaste and brushed his teeth with soap. After breakfast, Jackson peeked into the piano. "Sorry to disturb you, Miss Pixie, but could you please stop PLINK PLUNKing all night? I really need to sleep." "Plink plunk, pardon me," said the piano pixie. "But what else can I do?" "Let me think about that," said Jackson. Jackson thought about it all day while he unpacked. After dinner he put some sheet music on the piano. But he was too tired to relax in his favorite chair, so Jackson climbed straight into bed. That's when he just barely heard... ...the gentle thup of puzzle pieces, the quiet chugga-chugga of a toy train, and the soothing sounds of a pixie lullaby. Jackson sighed. He closed his eyes. And he finally fell asleep in his new house with his not-so-noisy .... ... new friends. The end. Now why I chose this book is: Guys I was kind of that kid that was afraid of the dark. And what I so appreciate about Jackson is he faced his fears with courage and he had a solution. If there's something that you're kind of afraid of, you know what, things aren't always what they seem. So thanks for watching Storyline Online. Make sure you check out all of our stories.
