Ep 506. Sweep Sweep and Away! a relaxing bedtime story for kids

Skipper Street Sweeper and his driver Marta clean the streets all around town. Hello everyone!  We hope you enjoyed our new stories this week. Now, welcome to Favorite Friday! Sometimes we like to listen to our favorites again. Please enjoy “Sweep Sweep and Away!” and we’ll be back with a new story on Monday! Narrator: Male Story Begins: 8:36 Sweep Sweep and Away! Excerpt: Skipper the Street Sweeper was a happy fellow. He just loved cleaning the streets of Ahway Island and keeping the island beautiful for everyone to enjoy. And today was a very exciting day! It was the first of the month, which meant he was going to sweep over by the school and the library, as well as the post office and the grocery store. There usually were very interesting things to see and sweep away when he was cleaning in town. It was bright and early morning when Marta opened the overhead door to the garage where Skipper was waiting. Marta was his driver and he thought she was such fun to work with. While she was driving, Marta liked to listen to really peppy, cheerful music and Skipper loved the music too. Or sometimes, Marta would just sing or hum a melody and she had such a pretty voice.
