[Panting]

Ah! I did it!

I am the fastest runner in the whole, entire world tree!

No, we tied.

You're bananas.

Did you see how fast my feet were going?

I have beautiful form.oh, as if.

It's all in the feet.

Well, in one big step, I can go farther than you.

Just watch.

Ah!

Sloth-jumping!

Cool! My turn!

No, stop! Huh?

I think she's scared.

[Whimpers]

Oh, we didn't mean to scare you, little sloth.

Oh, yeah.

We're only making up new games, that's all.

Oh, hey, look.

[Grunts] jump over me.

Go on. Jump over me.

Huh?

[Giggles]

Ok.

Oh, that's it, riona. Oh, keep going.

He's bigger than he looks.

Whoa!

Oh, you did it!

Ha ha! So, I guess sloths can't jump as well as a monkey can.

And what did you mean, I'm big?

Winslow too big.

And...

Riona small.

Yeah, riona. You are pretty small.

Have to give it to her on that one.

[Grunts] yo, riona. There you are.

Hey, winslow, smooch,

I was just looking for this cool book of mine,

And I was wondering if you've seen it.

Snook!

Oh, hey. You guys having fun?

We're sloth-jumping,

A new game we just invented.

But the sloths don't get to do much.

Monkeys jump over. Ha ha!

Yep. Us monkeys are great jumpers.

And runners, too.

Everybody knows taking lots of little steps

Is much faster than one big step.

Uh, what?

Well, I think everybody knows

That somebody is completely wrong.huh?

On your toes. Get ready.

Run!ha! Bye, guys!

Monkeys fun.

Uh, yeah.

Um, well, come on, riona.

Let's go look for my book.

You know, we all have different things we're good at doing.

See, everyone's got their own skills and talents.

For example, you may be good at sports.

Maybe you love to play music or sing or dance.

Or you might be great at telling stories or painting pictures.

We're all good at something,

And it's fun to discover what you're great at

And share it with everyone around you.

Um, snook?

Monkeys jump and run fast.

Heh heh heh! Yup.

Monkeys can jump and run fast, but--

Sloths slow.

Why?

Oh, good question.

Actually, everybody does their own cool thing, uh, differently.

Huh?

♪ We're not all the same

♪ We wouldn't want to be

♪ You like being you

♪ And I like being me

♪ You've got your own face

♪ And you've got your own name

♪ We can all be friends

♪ Though we're not the same

♪ Everybody's different in this whole world ♪

♪ Every sloth and every monkey, every boy and girl ♪

♪ Some of us are big ♪ like you are, snook

♪ Or small like ants, hey, guys, come look ♪

♪ Some like to fly ♪ some like to swing

♪ Some like to dance ♪ and some like to sing

♪ Fast or slow ♪ short or tall

[All giggle]

But riona is slow,

Small, and--

[Yawns]--sleepy.

Oh, hey, riona.

You hang upside down better than anyone, right?

No. No, no.

No? No.

Snook, you the best.

The best? Heh heh!

Well, ok, I'm not bad at hanging upside down.

Snook? Hmm?

What riona do the best?

Well, that may be something you need to take some time to figure out, riona.

But this sloth thinks there are a lot of things you're wonderful at doing.

Riona don't know.

Hey, let's find that book.

It's got lots and lots of pictures of different animals,

And you'll see.

Hey, now where did I put that book?

Now, I know I loaned it to bob, who gave it to smooch,

Who I'm sure brought it back to me.

Or did I leave it-- ahem!

Riona no jump like monkeys.

Why?

You don't jump like a monkey because you're a sloth.

Burdette: hello, everybody.

Don't I look particularly beautiful today?

What do you think? Be honest now.

Oh, absolutely, burdette. Your feathers are a wonder.

Nice of you to say so, snook.

Nice day for flying, don't you think?

No. Riona can't fly.

No, you can't fly, riona, but--

Oh, my. It's ok, burdette.

I'm looking for my book about animals.

I was going to show riona how every animal and everyone is unique,

And we have cool stuff that we do...

It's a great book, if I could--

Does it have a page on quetzals?

Oh, i--i'm sure it does. If only I could find it.

Oh, I'll find it.

I'll fly all over the rainforest to look for it.

You'd be surprised what I see when I fly around.

Oh. Ok, but I'm not sure that--

Riona can't fly, can't help.

A flying sloth would be pretty weird.

[Sighs]

But, riona, you can do lots of other things.

What?

Um, take naps.

You're so cozy,

And you're a great hugger.

[Sighs]

If only I could find my book, I'd show you.

♪ I'm back

Did you miss me?always, burdette.

Well, snook, your book simply can't be found.

I've flown to the top of the trees,

And not a book in sight.

Not yours, anyway.

And if I can't find it, then forget it.

Um, yes. Uh, well--

Snook! Snook!

Huh?

Look! Book! Ha ha ha! Look!

[Gasps] see?

You found it! Wow! Way down under there!

Oh, my, riona.

You found something that I couldn't.

That's quite an accomplishment.

Riona helped.

Ha ha ha!

That's right, riona. You helped.

I never would have thought to look there.

Oh, my. I should have.

You know, riona, if you weren't so small,

We never would have found that book.

[Giggles] riona small.

Small good.

Ha ha! That's right. Small is good.

Now let's take a look at this book.

Now, where's the chapter on quetzals?

Winslow: ha ha ha ha!

Oh, hey, guys.oh, hey, snook.

We were racing around the tree, which was pretty fun.

Yeah, but then we realized we never got to finish that game of sloth-jumping.

And, riona, you're the only sloth small enough to play it with us. Ha ha!

Riona small.

Yeah, so if you don't mind,

We were thinking we might go down

To the rainforest floor and play a few rounds?

Well, I was about to read riona this book.

No, riona want to play, play, play!

[Chuckles] ok, riona.

If you want to play, we can read later.

Go have a good time.yes!

Thanks, snook.see ya, snook.

See ya! Bye, guys.

Well, it seems like riona figured out

There are a lot of things she can do after all.snook, i...

I would--but I was looking forward to showing her this book.

Huh. It would be really fun to read.

Um, snook? I'll read it with you.

Gee, thanks, burdette.

Quetzals first?

Of course.

♪ Hey, come over here

♪ Now you put your things away ♪

♪ You sure have learned a lot ♪

♪ It was so much fun to play ♪

♪ Now tell me 'bout the best parts of your day ♪

Ah!

The best parts? Hmm.

Yeah, riona. What did you think were the best parts of today?

Heh! Playing with winslow.

And play--play sloth-jumping. Ha ha!

Ah! Ha ha!

I think that sport could catch on big.

Winslow jump.

But he couldn't roll up into a little ball like you could.

I liked how you found the book when I couldn't.

And burdette, too. Uh-uh.

I've flown to the top of the trees, and not a book in sight.

Burdette flew everywhere, but she couldn't find it, either.

We needed someone small to find it.

Huh? Look! Book!

Ha ha! Look!

And because you're small,

You were the only one who could find that book.

Ha ha! Riona small. Small good.

Small is very good, riona.

And I think you're not just good, you're wonderful.

Oh! Hmm.

♪ We're off to find new friends ♪

♪ We're on the road again

♪ On a road that never ends ♪

♪ Out in the big, big world

Hey! Here I am, on the road! Ha ha!

Actually, I'm here at pike's farm with jim pike.

Hey, jim. Hi, snook.

It's so good to see you.it's good to see you.

So, jim, what's growing right here in this part of your farm?

This is lettuce, snook.lettuce. Wow.

Is this all lettuce? Because I see purple stuff and green stuff.

Lettuce only comes in green, right?

No, lettuce comes in different colors.

This is red lettuce and that's romaine lettuce.

Huh!

And this is boston lettuce.

And bos--wow!

Who knew there were so many different types of lettuce?

And can you eat all of them?we can eat all of them.

Oh.they're all good to eat.

Do you have a tractor?i have tractors.

Jim! Jim pike, you have tractors?

Tractors. Whoa!

That would be like a dream job. Tractors!

That's right.hee hee hee!

Maybe one day I could learn how to drive a tractor.

Riona.

Riona.

Time to get up, riona.

Oh, hey!

It's time to get up and riona's still sleeping.

Hmm.

How should I wake her up?

Any ideas?

Oh, did someone say sing a song?

What a good idea.

I have the perfect wake-up song.

♪ Wake up, wake up, hey, everyone ♪

♪ Wake up and see the morning sun ♪

♪ Wake up because the night is done ♪

♪ Everybody should rise

♪ Gently I'll whisper in your ear ♪

♪ Louder if you don't seem to hear ♪

[Softly] wake up, riona.

Ah!

[Yawns]

Good morning, snook.

Heh heh heh! Good morning, riona. Time for breakfast.

[Grunts]

Did someone say breakfast?

I'm hungry!me, too!

When do we eat?oh, hey, guys. Hmm.

Maybe you'd like to join us for some-- breakfast?

So nice of you to invite us.

I thought he'd never ask.

Hey, mi casa es tu casa.

That means "my house is your house."

I've got plenty of eats.

I'll make some breakfast.

All: yay, snook!

So, hey, riona. What are we doing today?

There's always swinging in the canopy.

We can find you some tiny vines, riona.

Or skating on some banana peels.

Or we can just kick back and watch the pond scum grow.

Winslow, we did that yesterday.

Oh, yeah. That was pretty boring, although I do like

When those little tadpole thingy-wingies scoot around.

Hey, and there's that tiny lizard that can walk across the water--

Uh, riona know.

You've seen that lizard, too?no, no, no.

No? No.

Snook forgot.i did?

Heh! Forgot what?

I--i don't remember forgetting,

Unless I've already forgotten.

Snook promised.

Oh, well, then let's do it,

O-only what is it?

Can you give me a hint?

Dinner party.

[Gasps] both: dinner party!

Dinner party! Oh, that's right!

Ah! Whew!

I knew I couldn't forget to remember forever.

Spill the jungle berries, snook. What are we doing?

Heh heh! Well, I am very pleased to host

The first many-colored, try-something-new,

Fruit-and-vegetable dinner party.

Wow! That's a mouthful!

Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha! Huh?

Riona making hippo pie.

Ooh! Love those hippo pies!

So what are you guys going to make?

Oh! Oh! I make a great beetle wing chips.

Yuck! Who wants to eat beetle wings?

Well, they're not really beetle wings, silly.

They just look like them.oh! Clever.

Mm-hmm. Well, we'll go tell burdette.

I know she'll make something great.

Great. And I'll tell bob, but remember,

It's the many-colored, try-something-new,

Fruit-and-vegetable dinner party,

So it's got some color,

It's got to have fruits and veggies,

And you've got to try something new.

He just said a mouthful. Ha ha!

You get it? A mouthful?

Hey, that was my joke.

Come on, funny monkey. Let's get going.

[Grunts]

There you go, riona. Now you're making hippo pies.

Ha ha! Love hippo pies.

All right. I have to get some fruits and berries

And a ton of other stuff for our party.

You keep stirring, and I'll be back soon.

Ok.

Hey, do you like to try new foods?

Not everybody does, but it's something you should do if you're growing up.

There are all kinds of fruits. Oh!

And all kinds of delicious vegetables. Mmm!

And who knows if you've even found your favorite food yet?

One thing is for sure:

If there's lots of colors of fruits and veggies on your plate,

Then that's a sign that you're eating right.

Hey, there's bob's house.

[Whimpering]

Hey, bob, I wanted to invite you to the many-colored--

Try-something-new, fruit-and-vegetable dinner party.

Right. Whoa. Heh! How did you guess?

Smooch swung by and told me.

[Whimpers]

Uh, bob? What's wrong?

Well, what if there's nothing I want to eat?

Well, you can try something new. Heh!

That's why it's called the many-colored--

Try-something-new, fruit-and-vegetable dinner party.

I know, but what if I don't like any of the new things?

Well, usually there's something.

I don't really like to try anything new,

And if I don't like it, then I won't have any dinner,

And--and-- and I could starve.

[Crying]

Oh, let's pull this back a notch.

First of all, all you have to do is try something new,

Even a bite, and see what you think.

Just a--a bite? Yes.

No one's going to make you eat something you don't like.

The idea is just to try new foods,

Because when you're growing up,

There are so many foods you haven't tried yet.

Oh! That's so true!

There are so many foods to try.

And you can make something you're sure to like

And bring it just in case.

How does that sound?

I don't know.

But what if no one likes the food that I make?

Heh heh! It's going to be ok, bob,

Because there's going to be lots of stuff to try,

Lots of fruits and vegetables,

So there's sure to be something for everyone.

Ok, snook. I'll give it a try.

Ha ha! Way to go, bob! I'll see you there.

I can't wait to taste what you make.

Oh! The hippo pies look great, riona!

How do you like my lovely leaf roll-ups?

Mmm! Absolutely wonderful, burdette.

Hey, winslow, these banana-leaf plates and twig forks are cool.

Yeah, I know!

I may be starting a whole line of jungle utensils.

Mmm! Frozen banana pops

And jungle juice. Yum yum.

Good cooking, snook.

Oh, I can't wait to try all this stuff!

Look at all the different colors!

It's almost as beautiful as my feathers.

Almost.

Lots to eat.

Oh, I'm going to put some of every color on my plate.

Me, too!

Oh, that's a really good way to get a lot of what you need

To grow and play and be healthy.

Maybe you ought to see how many different colors of fruits

And veggies you can put on your plate.

But wait. Where's bob?

Hmm. He was worried about not having his favorite food.

♪ Not anymore

Whoa, bob! What did you make?

That looks like ants.

Well, actually, I call it "ants on a stick."

Oh, no. Bob,

You're not going to eat ants, are you?

I've always wondered about that.

Of course not. They're not real ants.

They're made from dried berries.

Both: cool! I want to try that!

Ok, everybody. Let's dig in.

All: yay!

Oh, why, riona, these are the best hippo pies!

Mmm. I've never eaten these before.

♪ Hey, come over here

♪ Now you put your things away ♪

♪ You sure have learned a lot ♪

♪ It was so much fun to play ♪

♪ Now tell me 'bout the best parts of your day ♪

The best parts. Exactly.

What did you think were the best parts of our many-colored,

Try-something-new, fruit-and-vegetable dinner party day?

Hippo pies! Heh!

Hippo pies, huh?

Well, did you think the best part was

Making hippo pies or eating them?

Mmm, both! Heh heh!

Ha ha ha! Both. Yeah.

Those hippo pies were a big hit.

Yeah. Hippo pies good. Uh-huh.

Yeah, the hippo pies were good,

But bob was a little worried about trying something that he'd never eaten before.

And I could starve!

[Crying]

Poor bob worried.

Yeah, but he didn't know how much delicious new food there would be to try.

And bob made ants on a stick.

Oh! Bob!

Yeah, bob did make ants on a stick, and they were delicious.

Yeah. Everything was delicious.

Everything was delicious,

And everything's better when you're sharing it with good friends.

My friends smooch and winslow would probably like a cat

That could swing from vines. Ha ha ha!

Well, maybe they should come to arf.

Oh, they should come to arf. [Chuckles]
