00:14To Peter Whiting Kuhnhart Jr.
00:18Every night Peter was invisible.
00:20Every time he took off his clothes, climbed into his bath, and put a washcloth on his
00:26back, he became invisible.
00:29Where's Peter? asked his mother.
00:32She looked in the bath water.
00:35She looked under the sink.
00:37She looked in the closet.
00:40He's all gone she said.
00:42Where's Peter? asked Peter's father.
00:46He looked in the medicine cabinet.
00:49He looked behind the chair.
00:51He looked under the cat.
00:54He's all gone Peter's father said.
00:57Every night Peter became visible again.
01:00Here I am he said pulling the washcloth off his back.
01:04There you are, said his mother.
01:07Clapping her hands.
01:09There you are, said his father.
01:12Smiling a big smile.
01:14Pretty soon Peter's mother had a baby.
01:18So Peter had a baby sister.
01:21When Abby was little.
01:23She took baths in the sink.
01:26Peter watched his father hold the baby carefully as he watched her.
01:30Peter held her foot, but she kicked and splashed him.
01:35Peter still became invisible, but not all the time.
01:39His parents were busy with the baby.
01:42Abby grew fast.
01:45Soon she could sit up.
01:47Soon she said her first words.
01:50Soon she took a bath in the big bathtub.
01:54One night Peter put a washcloth on Abby's back.
01:57Where's Abby? he asked.
02:00Yes, where is she? asked his mother.
02:04Look for her Peter.
02:06Abby wasn't under the sink.
02:08She wasn't in the hamper.
02:11She wasn't behind the tub.
02:14There you are, cried Peter pulling the washcloth off Abby's back.
02:19Peter's mother hugged him tight.
02:21Now Abby knows your game, she said.
02:25And I know you're my best best boy.
02:28Peter hugged her back.
02:30He knew he was.
02:32The end.
