Just like my tiny plastic dinosaur

So tell me one more story
Requesting another story from the mother.
Then I promise I'll close my eyes

Hey daddy, let's go on a bear hunt

Brown bear, what do you see?

I see a hungry caterpillar lookin' at me

Ensuring a genuine intention to sleep after hearing one more story.
