Emily: CLIFFORD!
IT'’S STORY TIME!
YOU WANT TO HEAR
A SPECKLE STORY, DON'’T YA?
[WOOF]
[GIGGLES] I THOUGHT SO.
HE'’S YOUR FAVORITE.
TODAY'’S STORY IS"SPECKLE
AND THE LOST BUNNY."
ONE DAY, EVEN THOUGH SHE WAS
ALWAYS VERY CAREFUL,
LUNA LOST HER FAVORITE
STUFFED BUNNY.
HER FRIENDS HELPED HER LOOK
HIGH AND LOW,
BUT THE BUNNY
WAS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND.
KNOWING THAT LUNA
WOULD MISS HER BUNNY,
SPECKLE SUGGESTED
THAT THEY MAKE HER A NEW ONE,
AND EVERYONE WAS INSPIRED
WITH THEIR OWN IDEAS.
REBA WENT INTO THE FORES
AND MADE A BUNNY
WITH PINE CONES AND FERNS.
DARNELL WENT TO THE CREEK
AND MADE A BUNNY
OF STONES AND SHELLS.
IN THE MEADOW,
RAVI MADE A SWEET-SMELLING
FLOWER BUNNY.
AND SPECKLE TOOK
SOME HAY AND CLOTH
AND MADE LUNA
A SOFT STRAW BUNNY.
WHEN THEY SURPRISED LUNA
WITH THEIR NEW BUNNIES,
SHE HAD A HAPPY
SURPRISE OF HER OWN.
SHE HAD FOUND
HER OLD BUNNY,
AND NOW SHE WAS
EVEN HAPPIER,
BECAUSE NOW HER FRIENDS
HAD BUNNIES OF THEIR OWN.
AND SO THEY PLAYED AND PRETENDED
FOR THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON,
EACH ENJOYING
THEIR ONE-OF-A-KIND BUNNY.
THE END.
THAT WAS A GREAT STORY!
ISN'’T READING FUN?
[WOOF]
[LAUGHING]
COME ON, CHARLEY!
YOU CAN DO IT!
GO, CHARLEY!
IF WE CAN GET THE BALL
PAST THIS GOALIE,

I KNOW WE CAN.

[BLOWS WHISTLE]
RECESS OVER!
OK, CLASS.
NEXT MONDAY WILL BE
SILLY SPORTS DAY
HERE AT SCHOOL.
[EXCITED CHATTER]
WHAT'’S SILLY SPORTS DAY,
MISS CARRINGTON?
WELL, VAZ, IT'’S KIND
OF LIKE THE OLYMPICS,
BUT INSTEAD
OF SERIOUS SPORTS,
WE DO SILLY STUFF.
LAST YEAR,
I DID THE CREAM PIE
LONG JUMP.
I JUMPED AS FAR AS I COULD
INTO A HUGE WHIPPED
CREAM PIE!
AND I DID THE MILE-LONG
BIKE RACE
ON A LITTLE TRICYCLE.
SOUNDS LIKE FUN!
THAT'’S WHAT IT'’S
ALL ABOUT, VAZ.
HAVING FUN.
SO EVERYONE PLEASE
PICK AN EVEN
FROM THE HAT.
THE FIELD WILL BE
SET UP THIS WEEKEND,
SO YOU CAN PRACTICE
IF YOU'’D LIKE.
BUT REMEMBER,
THIS ISN'’T SOMETHING
TO WIN AT.
IT'’S A DAY
TO HAVE FUN.
[GASPS] I GO

WHAT DID YOU GET,
CHARLEY?
JIGGLY JUGGLING.

OH, UHHA.

THE CREAM PIE LONG JUMP
SOUNDS PERFECT FOR ME.
