NARRATOR: Around and along, in the middle of... somewhere,

lives a little sound collector.

Ah, yes... MOLE SNORES

..and his best friend, Mole.

Putting in his hearing aids,

the Sound Collector starts to hear the world around him.

WAVE OF SOUND SWELLS

MOLE CONTINUES SNORING

SOUND COLLECTOR GRUNTS

I think it's time for breakfast, Mole.

MOLE GRUNTS, GROANS

You'd think this was the first breakfast she'd ever had.

MOLE CHEWS AND GRUNTS Oh.

Where's the Sound Collector?

He's not here either.

BIRDS CHIRP Look at that. A bluebell wood!

Maybe he's here.

NARRATOR LAUGHS

There he is. Ha!

Hup!

SWITCH CLICKS

SOUNDS ECHO

Ah, listen to that. BIRDS CHIRP

The sound of the woods. WINGS FLAP

BIRD SQUAWKS

Oh. Hello. BIRD CHIRPS

CHUCKLES

You'd think they'd make a beautiful sound.

Hm.

BUTTON CLICKS, TAPE RECORDER WHIRRS

SWEET METALLIC MUSIC PLAYS

Ah, so that's what they sound like.

Musical bluebells.

HUMS

A fly agaric mushroom.

Yes, he's keeping his distance. SIGHS

Ah, magical music for a magical place.

GIGGLING Huh? Who was that?

GIGGLING CONTINUES There it is again.

Sounds like they're having fun. Ah!

The woods truly are magical. GIGGLING CONTINUES

Could they actually be fairies?

BIRDS CHIRP

Huh?

BIRDS CONTINUE CHIRPING

Oh, I see.

He can record the fairies if he leaves them be. Great idea.

MOLE GRUNTS

NARRATOR CHUCKLES Hello to you too, Mole.

Er... Ah.

Hm. What's he doing? BOWL CLATTERS

NARRATOR CHUCKLES

Well, whatever it is, he'd better hurry.

Mole is hungry.

MOLE GRUNTS

As they sleep, the bluebell woods are busy with life.

BLUEBELLS RUSTLE Never stopping. Magically growing.

Around and along,

it's a new spring morning in the middle of... somewhere.

WATER LAPS Ah! Good morning.

MOLE GROANS

MOLE YAWNS, SIGHS

HE PANTS

Time to hear what he recorded in the woods, perhaps?

GIGGLING ON TAPE

Wonderful fun!

BIRDS CHIRP

Ah! So THAT'S what he was doing.

It's for the fairies. Nice.

GIGGLING Huh?

GASPS

Ah.

Why, thank you. Ah!

SNIFFS

MOLE GRUNTS

Hmm? SNIFFS

Hmm. Not for eating, Mole.

FAIRIES GIGGLE

Yes, time to go home.

Bye, fairies!

FAIRIES GIGGLE
