(Giggling)

(Humming)

Oh! (Giggle)

I like to stroke my whiskers when I think,

Like this!

(Humming)

But the other day, I tried something different.

I scritched my ears instead...

(Hums and giggles)

And you know what?

It worked so well I had three new ideas -

All at once!

Sometimes it's good to do old things in a new way.

That's what the gibble goose girls found out.

It all started one day

When pearl saw the cutest little tadpole...

Gibble goose girls♪ we are the gibble goose girls! ♪

♪ Coral! Amber! Jade! And pearl! ♪

♪ Four of us, there's no more! ♪

♪ One, two, three, four!

♪ One, two, three, four!

Oof! Oof! Oof!

Oooh? What's that?

Where's pearl going?

(Splashing)

(Grunt)

Hey! You get away from him, fishy!

Jadehey, pearl! Come on!

What did you see in the pond?

The cutest little tadpole.

A tadpole! What's a tadpole?

It's a baby frog, of course.

Oh, right. I knew that.

Come on, let's go!

♪ We are the gibble goose girls! ♪

♪ Coral! Amber! Jade and pearl! ♪

♪ Nightie night, our nest is made ♪

♪ Coral! Amber! Pearl and jade! ♪

(Snoring)

(Splashing)

Pearlhuh?

(Splashing)

Oh, no!

I hope the fish aren't after that little tadpole again!

(Giggling)

(Waking up moans)

Jadegood morning, amber.

Good morning, jade. Good morning, coral.

Good morning, amber. Good morning, pearl.

Pearl? Where's pearl?

Maybe she went to the pond

To check on that tadpole she saw yesterday.

Allpearl? Pearl! Pearl!

Jadehey pearl!

Coralhead out of the water, pearl!

It's such a beautiful day.

Time for our morning walk!

Oh, umm.

I think I'd better stay here

And watch the tadpoles.

Tadpoles?

There's more than one?

Yeah, there's a whole bunch.

They're so cute,

But that big fish might come back.

But pearl, it's morning!

We always go for a walk in the morning.

You guys go on without me.

I'll catch up with you later.

(Giggling)

Go for our morning walk without pearl?

But-but how?

We better hop-think!

("Hmm" as they think) hmm... Hmm... Hmmm...

Can we go on a walk without pearl?

It wouldn't be as much fun.

Pearl, what do you think?

Pearl's not here!

Should we go on a walk without pearl?

It might be an adventure.
[ … ]

Pearl, what do you think?

Pearl's not here!

Oh.

("Hmm" as they think) hmm...

Okay, what's the problem?

Amberwe want to go on our morning walk,

But pearl doesn't want to come!

Well, you could just keep walking!

You just walked all the way here without her.

That wasn't a real gibble goose girls morning walk.

Oh?

Well, what's a real gibble goose girls morning walk?

First we line up,

Then we raise our tails in the air.

Then we each lift one leg.

And then we sing.

I don't hear any singing.

Coralwe can't start without pearl.

Ambershe's the leader.

Can't another gibble goose girl lead? Coral?

I can't lead! I'm number two!

And I'm the best number three!

Don't look at me. I'm always four.

Hmm. Maybe you could all lead!

Uh-uh. That won't work.

Then there'd be no one to follow.

We're flutteriffic followers,

We just need a leader.

Thumpeka! That's it!

You need a new leader.

Mouseooh! Oh! Oh! Ooh!

Pick me! Pick me! Oh! Oh!

Mouse? As our leader?

Oh, come on.

It'll be so fluttery-fun!

Do you really think you can do it, mouse?

Mousesure!

I love to try new things

And I love to walk and I love to sing

And most of all I love to lead!

Follow me!

Coral, jade and amberyeah!

(Giggles)

Hmm. I'm going to see what pearl's doing.

Mousei'm just a cute little gibble goose girl!

(Giggles)

Allwhoooa! Oof!

This isn't the way pearl leads.

Coralmouse! Wait!

We love your song,

But we have a special morning song we sing.

And your zigzagging is a little hard to follow.

Here, let us show you what to do.

First we all line up behind pearl, the leader.

Mouse that's you, you're the leader now.

Then we sing our song.

Oh, that's right.

You have to start, mouse.

You sing, "we are the gibble goose girls!"

Achem.

So we don't run over our new leader.

All(hushed) ♪ we are the gibble goose girls! ♪

Mousewhoa!

Allwhoooaa! Oof!

Ambermouse, what's the matter?

Mousei almost went into the water!

Coralbut mouse, we always end our walk

By hopping into the water for a swim dance!

A swim dance?! In the water?!

Oh, my quivering whiskers!

You know I don't like to get wet!

Amberoh... Right.

Coralif only pearl were here!
[ … ]

She'd know how to solve this problem!

Sorry.

I know I'm not the best gibble goose girl leader.

Ambersure you are mouse.

Coralnot to worry.

We'll figure this out.

We're great figurer-outers!

Jadewhat we need is a hop-think.

Amberhow can mouse join our dance?

Coralhe can ride on a pondi-floater!

Jadedancing on a pondi-floater might be tippy.

Amberhe can hold onto a lily pad.

But I don't like to get wet!

Corali know, we can do our dance on land!

Jadegood idea! A land dance!

Pearlaren't they just so cute and sweet?

At first I just wanted to be sure

A big fish didn't get them,

But they're so smart.

I taught them the gibble goose girls swim dance!

You did?

Pearluh-huh!

Under water! Watch!

Coralfirst we all get in a circle and swim -

I mean run.

Amberthen we all go to the middle and lift up our wings!

Uh... Arms.

Jadethen we swim, uh... Run,

Back to the circle and twirl around!

Pearlyay! Woo hoo! Yay!

Wow! That was absolutely carrotastic!

Especially that last flip!

That was the tadpoles idea!

Isn't it feathertabulous?

I wish my sisters could see it.

Well, why don't you go and get them?

I want to, but I can't leave the tadpoles.

There are still big fish around here.

(Growls)

I see what you mean.

You stay here, then.

I'll be right back!

Jadewhew!

Mouse, you are one flutterific land dancer.

So, pearl and her sisters figured out a new way

To do the things they do every day,

And it worked!

(Laughing)

Oh, hi!

Have you ever seen someone

You'd really like to make friends with,

But you weren't sure just how to do it?

Edweena had the same problem,

Only a little while ago.

She was having her lunch in the meadow when...

Edweenamm-mm! Huh?

(Bird chirps)

Ooh, who's that?

(Bird chirps)

(Bird chirps)

A yellow bird! What's he doing here?

(Bird chirps)

(Birds chirp)

More yellow birds!

They're not from around here!
[ … ]

I better welcome them!

(Big trumpet sound)

Hellloooo!

(Birds chirp)

Come a long way?!

(Birds chirp)

Like to be friends?

(Birds chirp)

Hm. They don't seem to understand me.

What should I do?

I know!

I'll speak in song-bird-ish!

(Birds chirp)

I can do that!

(Inhale) (off-key humming)

(Birds chirp)

Oh dear!

Uh, I didn't mean whatever I just said!

(Birds chirp)

Got it!

I'll pretend to be a bird!

Then I'll sound like a bird.

(Inhale)

(Off-key humming)

(Birds chirp)

Rabbitedweena, are you okay?!

Mousedo you have something caught in your throat?!

Rabbitor your trunk? Or both?!

Edweenanothing wrong with me!

Just singing like a bird!

Or-or trying to.

Mouse and rabbitohh.

Rabbitif you want to sing like a bird,

You could take lessons from the birds you know best.

Edweenathe gibble goose girls!

Yeah! Good idea.

Amberoh, we'd love to teach you!

Jadethe way to sound like one of us is to twitter-

(Twitters)

Pearland honk. (Honks)

Coraltwitter. (Twitters)

And honk! (Honks)

Amberokay, edweena.

Let's hear you twitter!

Edweena(inhale) (bad twitter sounds)

(Air deflating sound)

Pearland honk.

Edweenaoh! Okay.

(Bad honking sounds)

Rabbitum... That was pretty good edweena!

Mousetry it again!

Edweenahoonk!

Amberthat's it! Now try- (twitters)

Pearland then... (Honks)

Gibble goose girls(twitter) (honk)

(Hooonk!) (Twitter!)

(Giggling)

Jadeyour honk was very good!

Pearlbut your twitter...

Jadeneeds work. Try doing this...

(Twittering)

Jadefrom here, in the throat-

Amberbut with a little tongue flick here-

Coraland take a deep breath just before you-

(Twittering)

Great twitters, but now that I think of it,

I don't need to sound like a goose.

Alloh?

Nope!

I need to sound like the birds I saw today.

Amberoh...

Pearlwhat did they look like?

Small and yellow,

And they sounded like... Music.

Jadeahhh. They were song birds!

Amberthat's totally different!

Pearlwe honk!

Coraland twitter.

Jadesong birds warble.

(Warbling)

I've never warbled before!

Gibble goose girlswe'll teach you!

Jadebreathe in...

Amberbeak just so...

Pearlflap as you...

Coralstretch your neck...

(Warbling)

Allnow you try.

(Giggles)

(Inhale) pwethffffft.

Alloh. Err...

Rabbitmaybe try again?

Mousebut different?

Edweena(bad warbling)

Oh, dear.

Don't worry.

It takes a while to learn how to warble.

Besides, you're an elephant, edweena.

Why do you want to sing like a song bird, anyway?

Because I wanna make friends with the new yellow birds.
[ … ]

I tried talking to them, but they didn't understand.

Pearlohhh!

That's a very interesting problem!

How can you make friends...

With someone new?

Especially if you can't honk, twitter or warble?

Edweenahow did you two become friends?

It was great. One afternoon...

It was morning.

Rabbit was at the top of a hill-

Rabbithuh? Wasn't I at the bottom?

Mouseno, you were at the top

Because you rolled down the hill and bumped into me!

Rabbitohhhh! (Chuckle)

Right!

I rolled down the hill.

(Rolling efforts) oof!

Mouseand bonk! Bumped into me!

I asked, "why are you rolling down the hill?"

Rabbitand I said "for fun!" And you said...

"I didn't know you could roll for fun!"

So you showed me.

Rabbit"watch!"

And I rolled, (laughs) on the ground.

Then you tried...

Mouseand I just went (effort) flop!

So you showed me...

Rabbithow to tuck and roll like this!

(Tuck and roll effort) (giggling)

(Tuck and roll effort) (giggling)

So I did and it worked!

So we went to the top of the hill.

You rolled down first...

(Laughing, rolling efforts)

Then you went.

Mouse(rolling efforts)

(Laughing)

Rabbitand I shouted, "yay, carrotastic!"

All(giggle)

Mouseand we've been best friends ever since.

Edweenawow, great story!

Coralmaybe you could ask the yellow birds

To roll down a hill with you?

Good idea!

But I need more ideas, too!

In case they aren't rolling birds.

Time for a hop-think!

Mouseyou want to make friends...

But you can't talk to the birds...

Edweenacan't warble either...

Pearlbut you want to show them that you want to be friends.

Rabbitwell, we know how mouse and I made friends

With each other.

Mousemaybe we should ask our friends

How they'd try to make friends!

Edweenahow would you girls make a new friend?

Gibble goose girlslike this!

Jade(giggles)

We'd help our new friend build a nest!

Amberwe'd get them lots of twigs!

Coraland moss!

Moss is very important!

Pearland show them how to put down the moss,

Then the twigs.

Twigs, then moss is better!

Amberno, no, no, no, no. Twigs and moss.

Gibble goose girlsuntil it was just right!

Ta-da!

(Laughing and cheering)

Thunderhey! What are you doing?

Hazelhi guys!

Amberhey thunder! Hi hazel!

How do you guys make new friends?

How would I make a new friend?

Uh... Got it!

I'd teach them how to do the thumpa, thumpa dance!

Hee hee!

♪ Thumpa, thumpa, thumpa,

♪ Thumpa, thumpa, thumpa

(Giggling)

I'd give them a nice big glop of acorn mash with honey!

Who could say no to that?

Edweenagreat ideas! Thanks!

Off to try to make friends - in new ways!

Edweena's got four really good ways

To try to make friends with the song birds

Without speaking their language.

Rolling down the hill, making a nest,

Doing the thumpa, thumpa dance,

And sharing some tasty acorn mash.

One of them will work, I'm sure!

(Birds chirp)

Okay, here I go! Heh.

Tuck and roll!

Whoaooaoaoa!

Can't stop! (Crash)

(Birds chirp)

(Groan) maybe I'll try something else...

Here I go! Heh.

♪ Thumpa, thumpa, thumpa,
[ … ]

♪ Thumpa, thumpa, thumpa

(Birds chirp)

There, a very nice nest.

Wanna try it?

Oh! It's very cozy! Watch!

(Giggles)

(Birds chirp)

What? Never seen an elephant in a nest before...

Whoooa!

Acorn mash with honey!

Yummy! Try it!

Very yummy!

Here, watch!

Yummy and ooh... Gooey!

I better use my trunk...

Ew! Sticky!

(Birds chirp)

(Sighs)

(Birds chirp)

(Slurping and spraying sounds)

(Birds chirp)

You like the water?

(Birds chirp)

Of course you do!

Birds love a nice bath!

(Slurping sounds)

(Birds chirp)

Ready?

(Spraying sounds)

(Birds chirp)

(Giggles and warbles)

(Birds chirp)

(Giggles and warbles)

Edweena learned to keep trying

When she wanted to make new friends.

Even when it didn't go so well at first,

She tried lots of different things,

Asked her friends for ideas,

And it finally worked.

So even though she didn't speak the birds language,

She discovered they liked the same thing she did -

Playing in the water!

It's not always easy to make new friends,

But when it works...

It's the best thing ever.

Edweena(spraying, giggling and warbling sounds)

Mouse(laughs)
