All: whoa!

(All laughing )

Whoa! (Laughing )

Hey!

(Wind blowing )

(Laughing )

Come back here!

(Chirping )

Would you like to help me in the garden?

It's a very windy day, mother bear.

Whoa... Oh-ho!

Very windy, indeed.

"The sun is sleeping...

"The clouds are creeping...

"The wind is calling...

The sky is falling!"

The sky is falling?

The sky is falling! The sky is falling!

(Laughs )

Whoa...

(Laughing )

Ooh.

(Laughs )

Hmm... If the sky did fall

I could reach up and touch the clouds.

(Grunting... )

(Chuckles )

(Wind blows )

(Laughing )

Ooh!

Hmm...

Ooh...

Mother bear...

Mother bear...

Yes?

I need a hat.

A hat.

A special hat, to keep the sky from falling on my head.

Oh, well... Let's see.

I must have something for my little bear.

Here it is.

This is a special hat.

Thisis a special hat.

This will keep the sky from falling on my head.

(Birds chirping )

Look at my hat!

What are you thinking?

I'm thinking...

That you need a special hat, too.

I crown you queen mother bear.

(Laughs )

Oh, I like the sound of that.

"The sun is sleeping...

"The clouds are creeping...

"The wind is calling...

The sky is falling!"

The sky is falling!

Ah! Wait for me!

Wait for me!

Good-bye!

(Laughs )

(Grunting )

Queen mother bear?

Yes, little bear?

I want to fly.

Fly?

As fast as the clouds.

I have something for my little bear.

You do?

There you go.

Now you can fly.

I can fly as fast as the clouds!

(Wind blowing )

Ooh! My bonnet!

I'll catch it, mother bear.

I'll get it!

Whoa...

(Laughing )

I'm flying! Whee!

(Gasps )

(Laughs )

Wow...

Whoa! Oh...

Mother bear.

Here you are, mother bear.

Oh, thank you, little bear.

Did it go far?

It went right up to the clouds.

Oh, my!

(Mother bear humming "my bonnie lies over the ocean"... )

"The sun is sleeping...

"The clouds are creeping...

"The wind is calling...

The sky is falling!"

The sky is... Um...

Do you want something?

I want something to put the sky in when it falls.

Hmm... Something to put the sky in.

I have something for my little bear.

You do?

Will this do?

Oh, yes.

"The sun is sleeping...

"The clouds are creeping...

"The wind is calling...

The sky is falling!"

(Laughing )

(Wind blowing... )

(Laughs )

(Wind blows )

Whee!

(Laughs )

Hmm...

Interesting.

Did you catch the falling sky?

Yes... All of it.

Well, I can use all of these things in my garden.

Perfect for mulch to help things grow.

(Chirping )

(Chuckles )

Thank you, little bear.

(Yawning ): oh, you're welcome.

And just in time for us to go inside.

Mother bear?

Do you want something?

No.

You don't?

I have everything I want.

(Yawns )

You do?

Everything except my flower pot.

Mother bear: "the sun is sleeping...

Little bear: "the clouds are creeping...

"The wind is calling...

(Yawning ): the sky is falling."

Falling...

Falling...

Falling... Asleep.

Mother bear.

That's not how it goes.

(Yawns )

Good night, mother bear.

(Yawns )

(Laughing )

(Mother bear humming )

Little bear: good morning, mother bear.

I'm all dressed for father's day.

Oh, let me see.

Fishing boots, fishing cap, fishing rod.

See, mother bear, I have everything.

Do you have father bear?

I do now.

(Laughs )

Happy father's day!

Thank you, little bear.

Are you ready to go fishing?

Yes.

I made your favorite sandwiches for lunch.

Thank you, mother bear.

Ah...

What a wonderful day to spend with father bear.

Just the two of you.

(Kisses )

Bring home some fish for fish stew!

Little bear: we will.

Good-bye!

Good-bye!

Bye!

Father bear, how many fish

Do you think we're going to catch?

Two? Ten? A hundred?

Well, enough to make fish stew.

We'll fish all day long.

Just the two of us.

(Hen clucking a song )

Good morning, hen.

Oh, good morning, little bear!

Good morning, father bear.

Good morning, hen.

My, where are you going?

It's father's day today.

Ooh... Well, then you should have these, father bear.

Happy father's day!

Thank you, hen.

That's very kind of you.

Little bear and I are going fishing together.

Just the two of us.

Ah... That's wonderful.

Father bear: good-bye, hen.

Hmm...

(Clucking )

Are we going in a boat?

Um...

But, hen, we're going fishing...

Just thetwo of us.

Just the two of you will fish

And we'll all have a wonderful time.

(Sighs )

Father bear...

Mmm...

I hope you don't mind if hen comes with us.

Of course not, little bear.

Owl: little fish...

Little fish?

Where are you?

I know you're in there... Somewhere.

Don't be shy.

It's just your nice feathered friend, owl.

Good morning, owl.

Hoo-hoo! Hello, little bear, father bear, hen.

It's father's day.

Little bear and father bear

Are going fishing.

Just the two of them-- and I'm going, too.

Happy father's day, father bear.

Thank you.

I hope you catch more fish than I have.

We're going to catch enough fish

To make fish stew.

Fish stew?

Mmm... I love fish stew.

Maybe I can help?

Little bear, hen and owl: * today is father's day *

* It's time to sing and play *

* And we all wish when we catch a big fish *

* That it doesn't get away *

* And when we've caught one, we will row *

* Back to shore we can go *

* To have fish stew at little bear's house *

* It's the best fish stew we know. *

Lovely.

Any bites?

Nothing yet.

Maybe our singing is scaring the fish away.

Then we must all be very quiet.

(Whispers ): very, very quiet.

Shh...

(Duck quacking )

Hello, duck.

Hello, little bear.

Hello, everyone.

What are you doing?

All (whispering ): fishing...

Oh... That's nice.

(Whispers ): it's father's day, duck.

Little bear and father bear are fishing.

(Whispers ): just the two of them.

Happy father's day!

(Whispers ): thank you, duck.

And we all have to be

Very, very quiet.

I can be very, very quiet!

All: shh...

(Whispers ): why do we have to be very, very quiet?

We don't want to scare the fish.

Oh... That's very nice of you.

(Gurgling song )

(Both sigh )

Being very, very quiet is making me very, very hungry.

Duck, do you want to come into our boat and have a sandwich?

Sure!

Mmm...

Hmm...

It's too bad cat isn't here.

He's missing all the fun.

It would be even more fun if I caught a... (Gasps )

A fish!

Both: it's a fish! Whoo!

(Squawks )

Hold on tight, little bear.

(All gasp )

What a fish!

It's a big, big, big, big, big fish!

A very, very big fish!

Duck: pull the line in, little bear.

Father bear: whoa! Careful!

Don't rock the boat!

(All gasp )

Why is this boat rocking?

I was having a nap and.... (Gasps )

Oh, no! What are we doing out here?!

All: fishing!

It's father's day.

Look out!

Father bear: whoa!

It's going to get me!

Cat! Look out!

(Screeches )

Help!

All: whoa...!

Cat: happy father's day, father bear.

Thank you, cat.

All: happy father's day!

Thank you, everyone.

The fish stew was delicious, mother bear.

Thank you.

(Slurping happily )

That was a very big fish you caught, little bear.

Yes, it was.

And it was wonderful spending the day with you, little bear.

Just the two of us.

(Both laugh )

(Thunderclap )

Little bear: catch any fish, fisherman bear?

The ocean is deep and big, with lots of fish.

Let's catch a big fish for dinner.

You see a fish?!

Where?

Oh, I see him, too!

There he is!

Wait, there...

No, he's gone.

He got away.

(Thunderclap )

The storm's getting bigger!

We better pull in our lines.

The wind is blowing hard!

(Whooshing )

The boat is rocking back and forth!

Whoa... Whoa...!

Here comes a big wave!

Hold on, fisherman bear!

Whoa...!

(Laughing )

The storm is clearing.

(Seagulls cawing )

Ready to fish?

Let's cast off.

Yes, fisherman bear, I think you're right.

A fish is coming.

Closer...

Closer... Closer...

Look! You caught a fish!

I caught something, too!

This is a mighty big fish!

Whoa...!

Hold on, fisherman bear!

(Whooshing )

(Sighing )

Mighty!

Hello, little bear.

Hello, mighty.

Did you enjoy the ride?

Oh, yes.

Fisherman bear liked it, too.

Hello, fisherman bear.

(Sighing )

I think fisherman bear's a little afraid of you, mighty.

Afraid of me?

There's nothing to be afraid of.

I'm just looking for someone to play with.

We'd like to play with you, mighty

But we have to catch a fish for supper.

Well, good luck, then.

Good-bye.

Good-bye, mighty!

I hope you find someone to play with!

Mighty is a very big fish.

I wonder who else is out in the ocean tonight.

(Laughing )

That tickles, fisherman bear.

Stop it!

You're not fisherman bear.

You're an octopus!

My name is little bear.

And this is fisherman bear.

Are you looking for someone to play with?

Wait! Come back!

Hello?

Hello, mr. Octopus?

Hello?

Woman: hello, little bear.

Mermaid!

What are you doing out here?

Are you fishing?

I was, but then octopus wanted to play with fisherman bear.

He was having so much fun that he took him!

Come with me, little bear.

I'll help you find them.

It looks like fisherman bear

Is having a tea party with octopus.

I have to catch a fish for supper.

And I really need fisherman bear's help.

Hello? Mr. Octopus?

I have an idea.

(Laughing )

Ah...

Mmm...

Do you still need someone to play with?

Good thinking, fisherman bear.

Why don't you play with mighty?

He's looking for someone to play with, too.

That's a wonderful idea.

Come with me, mr. Octopus.

I'll take you to mighty.

Little bear: good-bye.

Mermaid: bye.

Come on, fisherman bear.

We have to catch our fish.

I think you've caught something, fisherman bear!

Yay!

(Laughs )

Oh, this fish will make a perfect fish stew.

So mighty and octopus became good friends

And for supper

Mother bear made a delicious fish stew.

The end.

(Gate creaks )

Father bear's home!

Father bear!

(Laughs )

Hello, little bear.

Did you catch a very big fish?

I sure did.

Fisherman bear and I caught a big one, too.

(Laughs )

Let's go inside

And you can tell me all about it.
