"The quest
for the flying rock"

"The rock
of stonestep hill."

This is going
to be good.

Oh, hi!
It's me, uniqua.

Have you ever heard

Of "the rock
of stonestep hill"?

This book
is all about it.

See?

There's the rock.

And it looks like
that's stonestep hill.

Hmm...
Let's see.

Pablo:
hi uniqua.

Uniqua:
hi pablo.
Hi tyrone.

Tyrone:
hello.

Uniqua:
hi tasha.

Tasha:
hi. What are you reading?

Uniqua:
"the rock of stonestep hill."

Pablo:
that looks good.

Uniqua:
do you want to hear it?

Tasha:
yeah, read it to us.

Uniqua:
okay.

"Once upon a time,
long ago,

There was a magic
flying rock!"

Tyrone:
wow!

Pablo:
a flying rock!

Tasha:
that's amazing!

"To keep the rock safe,

People put it high
on the top of a big hill

Called stonestep hill.

Stonestep hill
is far, far away...

At the end of a long journey

With many obstacles."

Tasha:
obstacles?

Yeah, you know,

Things that
get in your way.

Then why didn't
they just say

"Things that
get in your way"?

Shhh!
Go on, uniqua.

Uniqua:
"if you can find
stonestep hill

And climb all the way
to the top,

Then you will find
the flying rock."

Pablo:
cool!

Tasha:
the only thing you have
to do is find the hill.

Uniqua:
that's not the only thing.

"To make the rock fly
you must say these words:

Float, flutter, fly."

"Float, flutter, fly."

"Oh rock, oh rock
on hilltop high

Float, flutter, fly!"

♪ Float, flutter, fly

♪ Float, flutter, fly

♪ Oh rock, oh rock
on hilltop high ♪

♪ Float, flutter, fly!

And then the rock will fly

And you will fly, too!

We'll fly?
Wow!

I'd love to find
that rock!

Me, too!

Yeah, but we don't know
how to find stonestep hill.

We need a map,
and we don't have one.

Pablo and tasha:
aw...

Uniqua:
[sigh]

I guess I'll put
this back inside.

Tasha:
hey, what's that?

Uniqua:
I don't know.

It's a map!

Pablo:
an old, mysterious map!

Tyrone:
that certainly is convenient.

Tasha:
and look!

That looks like stonestep hill!

You guys, this map will
lead us to stonestep hill.

And the flying rock!

All:
[cheers] yeah! Awesome!

Uniqua:
c'mon, let's go on a quest
to find the flying rock!

♪ We'll find
the flying rock ♪

Tyrone:
♪ when we're on our quest,

♪ We'll never stop
to rest till ♪

All:

Tasha:

of stonestep hill! ♪

♪ We'll make the rock

Tasha:

Pablo:
♪ we will laugh and yell

Uniqua and tyrone:

a questing dream ♪

All:

♪ All the way
to stonestep hill! ♪

So how
do we get there?

Let's check the old,
mysterious map.

Tyrone:
it looks like stonestep hill
is right between

The jungle and the desert.

Uniqua:
and to get there,
you can either take

The jungle path
or the desert path.

Tasha:
yeah, but what's that?

Pablo:
and what's that?

Uniqua:
I don't know.

Maybe they're obstacles.

But one thing's for sure,

To find the flying rock,

We have to go through either
the desert or the jungle.

Tasha:
okay.

Let's go through
the jungle

With all the trees
and vines.

Pablo:
no, no, no.

The desert would be better.

Where it's dry and sandy.

Tyrone:
looks to me like
the desert would be faster.

Hmm...

No, I think the jungle
would be faster.

Pablo:
I don't like jungles.

Tasha:
well, I don't like deserts!

Tyrone:
well, I think the desert
is the right way to go.

Uniqua:
nuh-uh, the jungle
is the right way to go!

The desert!

The jungle!

Uniqua:
hm... I know what.

Why don't you guys
take the desert path

And we'll take
the jungle path?

We'll just split
the map in half.

You take the desert half,

And we'll take
the jungle half...

And we'll see who gets
to stonestep hill first...

And finds the flying rock...

And says the words...

And makes the flying rock fly!

It's a race!

Uniqua:
hey tasha,
what do you think this is?

Tasha:
um, green spaghetti?

Uniqua:
why would anyone
put spaghetti on a map?

I think
it's an obstacle.

You mean something
that can get in our way?

Yup.

Well, I guess we'll see
when we get there.

Let's go!

Pablo:

Um... Cotton balls?

Tyrone:

cotton balls on a map?

Maybe it's
an obstacle.

[Giggles]

Whoa!

Uniqua:
looks like the path runs
right through these vines.

Oh! I get it!

What?

Uniqua:
that's not green spaghetti
on the map!

It's these vines!

C'mon!

Well, I would have
preferred real spaghetti.

Uniqua?

Uniqua?
Where are you?

I'm right here.

Uniqua?

I'm all tangled up
and I can't get out.

Let me help you!

Careful!

These vines
are really tangley.

Oh, for goodness sakes.

Now I'm all tangled up, too.

What do we do now?

[Giggles]
I don't know.

But have you noticed,
tasha,

These vines are...
[Giggles]

Tickley?
[Giggles]

[Giggles]
extremely tickley!

[Giggling]

Huh? Hey tasha!

I just figured out

How we're going
to get out of here.

Boys:
hmm...

Tyrone:
we're right about here.

Pablo:
at the cotton balls?

I don't see anything

That looks like a cotton ball
around here.

Tyrone:
me either.

Pablo:
hey, look!
A tumbleweed!

Tyrone:
oh! I get it!

These things on the map
aren't cotton balls.

Pablo:
nope.

They're tumbleweeds.

Lots and lots
of tumbleweeds.

Ooof!

Whoa! Ooof!

We're never gonna
get across!

We just have to try
to outsmart them!

Outsmart them?
How?

Watch this!

Missed me!

Oh, I get it!

Missed me, too!

Over!

And under!

And under...

...and over!

Double over!

Triple under!

Hey,
we're almost across!

C'mon pablo!

We made it!

A few measly tumbleweeds
can't stop us!

C'mon!

We're going to b*at
those girls

To the flying rock
for sure!

Absolutely for sure!

Tasha:
a river!

Uniqua:
let's see
if it's on the map!

See? Maybe those little
wavy lines are a river.

Tasha:
so what do you
think that is?

Uniqua:
I think that's
a bridge.

A cute little bridge

That will take us
across the river.

This is not a cute
little bridge.

Hey tyrone,

Is there a hill
on the map?

Let's look.

Well, there is this
little pile of sand,

Right here.

It must be this hill.

The path leads
right over it.

This is not
a little pile of sand.

This is a big pile
of sand.

Uh-oh.

Whoa!

It's falling!

Whoa!

Girls:
ahh! Ahhh!

Grab the ropes,
tasha!

Oh, for goodness sakes.

Now what?

Well, we can't
just hang around.

We've gotta move.

But how?

Hand by hand.

[Grunting]
c'mon!

Have you noticed...

That we've been trudging up
this hill forever?

No. Have you noticed...

That we're not
getting anywhere?

No. Have you noticed...

That we're stuck
in the same place?

No.

Then what?

Have you noticed
that cactus?

No, I hadn't
noticed that!

We could throw
your rope around it

And pull ourselves
to the top of the hill.

Good idea!

All right!

Way to go, tyrone!

Going up!

Boys:
[grunts]
uhhhh! Uhhhh!

We made it!

And look...

There's stonestep hill!

C'mon!

Pablo:
we're gonna b*at
those girls!

Hurry up, tasha!

I'm coming!

Phew!

Look!

Tasha:
stonestep hill.

Uniqua:
yeah, we made it!

Tasha:

Uniqua:

This is not good.
Oh, no.

We broke the flying rock.

Oh, no. Oh, no.

Tyrone:
pablo...

Pablo:
now, we'll never see it fly!

Aww, man. Never!

It will never fly...

Now it's not
the flying rock anymore.

Oh, man! Oh, man!

Pablo!

Yeah?

Uniqua:
I've got an idea.

Tyrone:
really?

Tasha:
