CHILDREN: Max and Ruby!

Welcome, everyone to our new community garden!

[Giggling]

It doesn't look like much yet,

but with a few seeds and bulbs

and a lot of help from all of you,

we'll have a wonderful garden full of beautiful flowers

and delicious vegetables for everyone to enjoy!

Now, over here, we have the Huffingtons!

Mrs. Huffington...

Happy to be here today!

Mister Huffington...

At your service!

And Baby Huffington...

[Giggling]

And what will you be planting today?

We're planting lots of lettuce.

And carrots, of course!

Thank you, so much.

And over here, we have Mister Piazza.

[Singing:] ♪ Oh the flowers that bloom

♪ On a sunny afternoon

♪ Are so delightful!

Oh, how lovely!

Thank you.

My pleasure!

And, of course, his son, Roger!

Hey.

And what will you be planting in your section of the garden?

We are planting great big tomatoes to make

into my world famous Piazza Pizza Sauce!

Delish!

Uh-huh.

GRANDMA: Wonderful!

But first we'll need to get rid of all the sticks

and stones and weeds

so we can plant delicious vegetables

for everyone to share!

MAX: Hi, Grandma!

Hi, Grandma.

Ruby, Max!

You made it!

I'm so glad.

We wouldn't miss it!

See my Rock Crusher?

That's a nice dump truck, Max.

[Rustling]

This is my 'Dirt Digger' Excavator.

And my 'Big Basher' Bull Dozer.

I'm sure they'll be a big help today.

What can I do to help, Grandma?

That's my patch of dirt

over there.

Would you like to help get it ready for planting?

Sure!

There's some garden tools in that shed.

I have to sort out these seeds and bulbs for everyone.

Okay, we can help with that!

Right, Max?

Sure!

This is going to be a very special garden, Max.

Do you know why?

No.

It's a community garden.

That means we all work together and share what we grow!

Hmm. Let's get rid of these weeds.

Okay.

Here, Max. You can use this!

Thanks, Ruby.

[Sighing]

Big Basher! This is a job for you!

[Grunting]

Whoa!

Are you okay, Ruby?

Yes, but maybe you and your Big Basher

could find another spot to play.

Grandma needs me to get rid of these weeds.

Okay.

What have you got there, Max?

That's my Big Basher!

[Chuckling] It sure is!

[Grunting]

Wow, pulling out these weeds is hard.

[Rumbling]

Oh, no!

[Giggling]

Max, please don't play where people are working.

But my Big Basher was helping.

Sorry, Mr. and Mrs. Huffington.

You know how Max really loves his toys.

Oh, that's okay, we love having Max around.

And his toys!

They are fun, but, come on, Max!

But I was trying to help, Ruby.

Okay, Max.

But right now we have to hurry up and help get

the garden ready for Grandma.

Okay.

I guess I won't be needing this hoe to pull the weeds anymore.

Let's put your Big Basher Bull Dozer back in the wagon

for safe-keeping.

Okay, Max?

Okay.

Is that for digging up weeds, Mr. Huffington?

Can I use it?

Sure, Ruby.

Thank you.

Now we just need to get rid of this...

stubborn...

weed!

Hey, Dirt Digger!

[Gasping]

Hey!

Everyone's working, Max.

We can't have your toys getting in the way, okay?

Okay, Ruby.

Thanks.

Now I've got to get back to weeding Grandma's garden.

Dirt Digger!

Now where's my Dump Truck?

Hey, Dirt Digger, come back!

[Both laughing]

[Grunting]

MAX: Come back!

[Chuckling]

Oh, no, not again!

I'm sorry.

I told Max to keep his toys out of other people's gardens.

What for?

Max's Dirt Digger is pretty cool.

Thanks for being nice, but I promise,

Max will be more careful.

But Dirt Digger was helping!

Okay, Max.

But other people might not see it the way you do.

Here, Max.

You can play with your Dump Truck.

At least it won't dig any more holes in the garden.

Hel-lo, Rock Crusher!

You can load it up with rocks or something.

I'm going to check with Grandma, and see if she has something

to get rid of this weed.

A few more carrot seeds for the Huffington's garden...

and some tomato seeds for the Piazza's garden...

and that should do it.

Hi, Grandma.

Oh, hello, Ruby.

How is the weed-pulling going?

I've been trying really hard,

but I'm not having much luck with it, Grandma.

Oh, that's okay.

I'll come and help, just as soon as I give everyone

their seeds and bulbs to plant.

Can I help you with that?

Sure!

But it looks like Max is already on the job!

Huh?

Max! Those are Grandma's seeds.

[Imitating truck]

Max, wait up!

Those are for the garden!

Oh, my goodness!

[Chuckling]

[Giggling]

[Imitating truck]

Nice moves, Max!

Max!

Goodness, Ruby, you're in a hurry!

Sorry, Mr. Piazza! I have to catch Max!

Sorry, Roger.

[Panting:] Gotcha!

Max! Where have all the seeds gone?

They're in the garden!

[Sighing]

Oh, Max, how are we ever going to get Grandma's garden planted?

You mean community garden!

Huh?

Okay, Ruby.

We're all here to help.

Yes, it's the least we can do,

since Max was so helpful planting our garden.

Yup, Big Basher is sure great at pulling weeds!

Bravo, Dirt Digger!

It is excellente at digging holes for the seeds!

And Rock Crusher Dump Truck

was perfect for delivering the seeds,

right where they needed to go!

You were helping everyone, Max?

Sure.

It's a community garden!

Yeah!

RUBY: I can't wait for our backyard camping trip.

ALL: For girls only!

It will be so much fun!

We'll pitch a tent, have snacks, lie under the stars,

tell spooky stories--

Just not too spooky, okay?

Okay.

Now let's make sure we have everything.

We have our tent, sleeping bags,

pillows, flashlights.

And raincoats and sweaters in case the weather changes.

And don't forget your camping snacks!



Snacks are very important for camping trips.

We're going to make ants on a log.

Ants?

On a log?

BOTH: Ew!

[Giggling] Not real ants!

Or a real log.

We're using celery, cheese spread, and raisins.

I'll show you how to make them after we set up our campsite.

BOTH: Whew!

MAX: Yeah!

I want to go camping!

Hmm. Where is my sleeping bag?

Sorry, Max, but it's girls only.

No boys allowed.

Aww!

I'm not a boy. I'm a vampire!

[Giggling] No vampires either.

Hmm.

It looks perfect.

One last thing.

Let's put a tarp over it in case it rains.

There.

Now, let's roll out our sleeping bags!

And then, snacks!

Time for some of those "ants on a log."

ALL: Yay!

Mmm! Ants on a log.

So, to make the "ants on a log",

first, you spread cheese on the celery.

Ta-da!

Now the log is done.

Time to add some ants!

[Giggling]

BOTH: Ants!

Mmm!

Delicious ants!

Scrumptious!

[Crunching]

[Gasping] What was that?

I'm not sure.

It was probably just the wind.

Or maybe it was our crunchy logs!

[Giggling]

[Howling]

[Screaming]

[Laughing]

Max!

Look at the mess you made.

Oh, sorry.

I'll help clean up.

[Howling]

Max, it's a girls only camping trip.

Sorry.

No boys allowed.

But I'm not a boy.

I'm a wolf.

[Howling]

[Giggling]

Sorry, Max, but no wolves, no vampires and no boys.

Okay.

Mm-mm.

That was a good snack.

Thanks.

I think it's time for some spooky stories now.

I've got a creepy one!

Mine's super scary!

Ooh, I wonder whose story will be the scariest.

Okay, me first.

Mine's so spooky!

And then, everything went quiet until...

[Gasping:] the jack-o-lantern's candle lit up all by itself!

[Gasping]

Then the candle blew out again, and...

Boo!

[Shrieking]

[Laughing]

Okay, that was pretty creepy, Louise.

Thank you.

As the ghost ship drifted into the ocean mist,

it slowly disappeared,

never to be seen again.

That was scary.

Really scary.

Okay, my turn!

My story is set in an old house high up on a hill.

Many people believe the house is haunted.

They find a set of footprints coming down the stairs.

[Whispering:] This will be funny!

[Giggling]

The footprints continue outside

and all the way around the house.

All the way around the house?

And there is something very strange about the footprints.

Because the footprints suddenly turn into...

[Roaring]

[Screaming]

A scary dragon!

[Giggling]

Max! You scared us.

Again!

[Giggling]

That's enough scaring, Max.

Remember Max, this is a girls' backyard camping trip!

No boys allowed!

But I'm not a boy, I'm a--

No vampires,

no wolves, no dragons...

ALL: And no boys!

All right.

Okay, I think that's enough scary stuff for one night.

Want to look up at the stars?

Great idea!

Yes, please.

Ooh, look, there's the Big Dipper!

Very scary!

Boo!

Rawr!

Grr!

Hmm.

I have an idea!

VALERIE: The moon is so bright tonight!

RUBY: I know, it's beautiful.

It's so great to be out here.

I just love girls' camp night!

Me too!

It's so much fun.

[Sighing]

I wonder how many stars there are in the sky.

I would say, uh, a lot.

Hi!

[Screaming]

Max! We told you!

No vampires--

No wolves, no dragons, no ghosts--

And no boys!

I'm sorry.

I just want to have fun too,

but I'll stop, I promise.

Thank you, Max.

We appreciate it.

[Crunching]

[Owl hooting]

[Gasping]

Ruby!

What is it?

[Shrieking]

W-w-what--

W-w-was--

That?!

M-m-monster?

And this time it's not Max, because he's here with us!

That thing does not look very friendly.

Let's go inside!

[Croaking]

Wait.

I know what that is!

No, Max!

What are you doing?

It's okay.

Watch this.

Ribbit, ribbit!

ALL: Ribbit?

[Croaking]

It's just Froggy!

[All sighing]

Hi, Froggy!

Oh, Froggy!

He's not scary at all!

[Croaking]

[Laughing]

Ew.

The flashlight shining on Froggy made a big shadow,

so he looked huge.

And we were telling all those scary stories.

They made us kind of jumpy.

And so did Max.

I had fun being scary!

Well, bye!

Have fun at your backyard camping trip.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

That Max should stay with us?

After all, he was the one who figured out it was Froggy.

Oh, Max? Come back!

Is there another spooky shadow?

No.

We decided you should camp out with us for a while.

Really?

Yes!

Sure, it would be fun.

But what about no boys?

The new rules are: no vampires, no wolves,

no dragons,

no ghosts, no frogs, and no boys.

ALL: Except Max!

Aww!

Thanks!

Now let's make some ants on a log!
