He curved his slender neck

and ruffled up his feathers as

the other birds gathered around.

They didn't tease him, and call

him an ugly duckling anymore.

Instead, they said he was the

most beautiful swan they had

ever seen.

The end.

That's my favourite story.

That's my favourite story.
It's my favourite story too.

It's my favourite story too.

[Yawning]

It looks like it's bedtime for

this little swan.

[Giggling]

Yeah.

Now that you're going to

school, you'll soon be able to

read stories all by yourself.

Goodnight, sugar snap.

Goodnight, sugar snap.
Goodnight, Mama.

Goodnight, Mama.

Read stories by myself?

But I like it when Mama reads me

stories.

MRS. JENKINS: Now, do you see

anything that starts with the

letter F?

LILLY: Not yet.

Uh-uh.

Oh, yeah!

Mrs. Jenkins, this dress has

flowers on it!

Flowers begin with the letter F!

Well done, Lily.

Thanks, Mrs. Jenkins.

I wonder what else we can find.

I wonder what else we can find.
I don't know!

I don't know!

How about this?

No, Frank.

"Button" starts with the

letter B.

We're looking for the letter F,

like "funny."

Oh, okay.

This is a hard one, Frank.

This is a really hard one,

Frank.

I know what starts with the

letter F!

I know what starts with the

letter F too!

BOTH: I found Frank!

Yes, Frank does begin with

the letter F.

Two letter Fs.

Uh-huh!

One for him, and one for me!

Okay, Frank and Frank.

You score two points for that

answer.

All right!

BOTH: Go, Franks, go!

Go, Franks, go!

Now, then, everyone, let's

see who can find something that

begins with the letter L.

Let's see...

"Flute" starts with the

letter F.

And "violin" starts with the

letter "V".

Too bad we aren't looking for

the letter T.

"Trumpet" starts with T.

And so does "tambourine."

Hmm...

I don't think any instruments

begin with the letter L.

Let's go look somewhere else.

Okay.

Come on, Norman.

Look, Mrs. Jenkins!

"Norman" doesn't begin with

the letter L!

It begins with the letter N.

But Norman's a lizard, and

"lizard" begins with L.

Right, Mrs. Jenkins?

That's right, Nora.

Well done.

This game is fun!

I'm glad you like it, Nora.

It's also going to help us learn

how to read.

Learn how to read...

Learn how to read...
by myself?

by myself?

I'll go first.

Bell.

Bell rhymes with... sell!

Go, Yoko.

[Clapping]

Sell rhymes with tell!

Your turn, Nora.

[Clapping]

Tell rhymes with yell!

[Laughing]

Your turn, Fritz.

[Clapping]

Yell rhymes with, um...

Yell rhymes with, um...
fell!

fell!

I like playing the rhyming words

game, Mrs. Jenkins.

So do I!

It's fun.

And best of all, it's going

to help everyone become better

readers.

It is?

Your turn, Yoko.

Star.

Star rhymes with car!

Go, Nora!

Um...

Car rhymes with...

I don't feel like playing this

anymore.

You don't?

Why not?

I just don't.

Okay, my turn.

Car rhymes with... jar!

Your turn, Fritz.

Your turn, Fritz.
FRITZ: Uh...

FRITZ: Uh...

I spy with my little eye

I spy with my little eye
something that starts with M.

something that starts with M.

Hmm... my milk?

That starts with the letter M.

It does begin with M, but

that's not it.

I was spying something else.

I know!

You spied the mayonnaise on my

sandwich!

No!

Not your mayonnaise.

My macaroni?

Nope, not your macaroni

either.

Do you want to guess, Nora?

Uh-uh.

Hmm... there's nothing left

to guess.

I give up.

What did you spy, Lilly?

My muffin!

Your muffin?

I don't see a muffin.

Oops, I guess I ate it.

[Laughing]

Your turn, Fritz.

Okay.

I spy with my little eye

something that begins with C.

Is it my cupcake?

No, I was spying something

else that starts with the

letter C.

[Whispering]

Beans and Franks?

[Laughing]

You guys guess that every

time.

Besides, "beans" starts

with B, not C.

Is it my carrots?

FRITZ: No, not your carrots.

My cr*cker?

Nope.

I give up.

I knew nobody would get it!

Wait!

I know what it is!

You spied my crumbs!

Huh?

How did you guess that?

Nice going, Lilly.

It's your turn to spy

something, Nora.

Uh... no thanks.

Don't you want to play, Nora?

It's lots of fun.

It's lots of fun.
I'm kinda busy eating.

I'm kinda busy eating.

Are we really going to the

library, Mrs. Jenkins.

Yes, we are, Doris.

I like going to the library.

Me too!

So do I!

I've never been there without my

parents.

How am I going to borrow any

books?

Yeah, my mom has a special

card she has to show the

librarian.

I suppose Mrs. Lightfoot will

just have to give you your own

library cards.

Our own library cards?

We get to take out our own

books?

That's right.

From now on, all of you will be

able to take out your own books

to read.

ALL: Yay!

[Sighing]

I don't want to read by

I don't want to read by
myself.

myself.

And this is where our science

and nature books are.

Interesting.

Are there any questions?

Yes, Doris.

Do you have any books on

spiders?

Yes, indeed we do.

Several of them, in fact.

Ugh!

I'm not going to borrow any of

those.

[Laughing]

Now, please line up here at

the desk, so I can hand out your

the desk, so I can hand out your
library cards.

library cards.

library cards.
I don't want a library card.

I don't want a library card.

There you go, Timothy.

Now, make sure you bring it with

you, every time you come to the

library.

I will.

Thanks, Mrs. Lightfoot.

Thanks, Mrs. Lightfoot.
You're very welcome.

You're very welcome.

Nora?

Yes, Mrs. Jenkins?

Please get in line with the

others.

I don't want you to miss out on

getting your library card.

Okay...

There you go, Lilly.

Thanks, Mrs. Lightfoot.

It's my pleasure.

And there's your card, Nora.

Thanks, Mrs. Lightfoot.

Thanks, Mrs. Lightfoot.
You're welcome.

You're welcome.

This way, Frank.

Huh?

Careful, boys!

Phew!

Library books are heavy.

Yeah.

Yeah.
Library books are very heavy.

Library books are very heavy.

You can tell it's Saturn by

the rings around it.

Look what I found!

It's a book about a frog and a

It's a book about a frog and a
prince!

prince!

Aren't you going to get any

books, Nora?

Nope.

Why not?

I'd rather spin the globe.

Oh.

Besides, I couldn't find any

books I like.

Really?

Really?
There are lots of books here.

There are lots of books here.

Nope.

Is something wrong, Nora?

Promise you won't tell

anybody?

anybody?
Sure.

Sure.

I don't want to learn how to

read.

Why not?

Because if I do, Mama won't

read stories to me anymore.

She said I'd be reading all by

myself.

Are you sure?

That's what she told me last

That's what she told me last
night.

night.

Hello, Mama.

Hello, dear.

How was your day at school?

It was fine.

Here, I made this for you.

It's a picture of me flying my

kite.

Look at you!

And look at how high that kite

is flying.

You'd better be careful it

doesn't carry you away.

Did anything else happen at

school?

Didn't you go to the library

today?

Uh-huh...

Well, that must've been

exciting.

What books did you borrow?

I didn't borrow any books,

Mama.

You didn't?

But you love books!

What's wrong, Nora?

I don't want to learn how to

read books.

You don't?

Why not?

Because then you'll stop

reading to me.

Stop reading to you?

Why would I do that?

Because I'll be able to read

all by myself.

Oh, Nora, that doesn't mean

I'm going to stop reading to

you.

It doesn't?

No!

I'd miss our story time together

as much as you would!

Maybe we could take turns

reading stories to each other.

That sounds like a wonderful

idea.

Would you like me to read you a

story right now?

Okay, Mama.

Hop on.

Once upon a time, there was a

beautiful little princess.

She lived in a magnificent stone

castle, at the top of the

highest hill.

Every morning, as soon as she

woke up, she would rush to her

woke up, she would rush to her
bedroom window and look out...

bedroom window and look out...

Your birthday invitations

look beautiful, Yoko.

look beautiful, Yoko.
Thank you, Mama.

Thank you, Mama.

The last one is for Nora.

Mm-hmm.

"To Nora."

Now I want to blow up all the

balloons, and then I want to

fill the treat bags, and then

fill the treat bags, and then
put up the streamers.

put up the streamers.

What about my birthday cake,

Mama?

Your party is on Saturday,

cherry blossom.

It's too soon to bake your cake.

It's too soon to bake your cake.
Okay.

Okay.

Will you help me get the games

ready, Mama?

Yes!

Yes!
I will help you with the games.

I will help you with the games.

Will you help me make party

hats too?

Yes, I will help you with

everything.

Now, save your breath to blow up

the balloons.

the balloons.
Okay, Mama.

Okay, Mama.

[Laughing]

[Laughing]

What are you going to get

Yoko for her birthday, Doris?

I'm gonna get her something

special.

Oh, what is it?

I don't know, yet, but it's

going to be something she really

likes.

Yoko likes music.

You're right, Timothy!

She really likes violins.

She has a violin already.

But she doesn't have a music

box.

Oh, that's a good gift,

Timothy.

Good idea, Timothy.

Thanks.

Well, I know what I'm getting

her.

Tell us!

What?

Some paper.

Paper?

Uh-huh!

Special paper.

What kind is that?

The kind you use for origami.

Oh, yeah.

She'll like that.

Good gift.

Yoko loves origami.

That's a good idea, Claude.

I know.

I'm going shopping after

school to pick out some

jewellery for her.

Jewellery?

Wow!

She'll like that!

Yes!

Something from the Gift Gallery.

They have very nice things

there.

Oh, I could get Yoko

something from the Gift Gallery,

too.

Hi, everybody.

Oh, Yoko... hi!

ALL: Hi!

What are you doing?

Um, playing?

Uh...

Talking about your birthday!

Shh!

Shh!
Oh, Lilly!

Oh, Lilly!

What?

Come on, let's play tag.

You're it, Doris.

Hey!

No fair!

No fair!
[All giggling]

[All giggling]

Mama, when we're done, can

we go to the Gift Gallery?

The Gift Gallery?

Uh-huh!

I want to get something special

for Yoko's birthday.

They have very nice things

there.

The things there cost a lot

of money.

That's okay.

Well, not really, Nora.

This week we had to get you a

soccer uniform, and another

wheel for your bicycle.

Jack needed a new stroller, and

I still have to buy our

groceries.

groceries.
Oh, Jack!

Oh, Jack!

So, we can't go to the

Gift Gallery.

I'm sorry.

We just don't have the extra

money this week, sugar snap.

But you could make something.

Make something?

Sure!

You make lovely things.

I'll never be able to make a

gift that's special enough for

Yoko.

Nora, can you get your

Sticky-Licky Thunder Chips for

me, please?

me, please?
Okay.

Okay.

Hey!

This cereal has dance slippers

inside.

inside.
Yoko would love dance slippers.

Yoko would love dance slippers.

Weeds and Seeds?

You don't like that cereal,

Nora.

Well... I do now.

I'm tired of Sticky-Licky

Thunder Chips, Mama.

I want this kind.

Please?

Can we get them?

All right, but I want you to

eat them.

eat them.
I will, Mama.

I will, Mama.

I will, Mama.
[Sighing]

[Sighing]

The dance slippers must be at

the very bottom.

Here we go again.

My, you do like Weeds and

Seeds.

You can't seem to get enough of

it.

Uh-huh.

Look what I found upstairs:

all kinds of special things for

Yoko's gift.

There's lace in here, and

ribbon, and beads, and sparkles.

Huh?

What's that?

Oh, isn't that sweet?

It's a little dance slipper.

But... it's supposed to be

two real dance slippers.

What good is one slipper?

And this won't fit Yoko anyway.

Ah, so that's why you wanted

Weeds and Seeds.

I wanted to give her

something special.

This is a pretty little

slipper.

I think Yoko would like it.

You could wrap it up with some

ribbon.

Here's a nice little box.

Hey, this matches the

slipper.

I can make a necklace...

like this!

That's beautiful, Nora!

Yoko will really like this!

And I'll wrap it in some gold

paper!

Mm-hmm.

You can put little flowers from

the garden under the bow if you

like.

Yeah!

Yeah!
That's a great idea, Mama.

That's a great idea, Mama.

I can't wait to go to Yoko's

birthday party.

Neither can I.

I got Yoko's present

yesterday.

What did you get her?

A craft kit!

And you should see all the

things inside!

It's huge!

She'll like that!

That's a great gift!

I got her something too!

Me too, from the Gift

Gallery.

What did you get?

A diamond tiara, and it cost

a lot.

Wow!

Wow!
Diamond tiara?

Diamond tiara?

What did you get her, Nora?

Yeah, what'd you get?

Yeah, what'd you get?
Um, well...

Um, well...

Um--

[Bell ringing]

MRS. JENKINS: Recess is over,

everyone.

Oh, recess is over.

Oh, recess is over.
See you later.

See you later.

Nora?

Yes, Mama?

It's almost time to go to

Yoko's party.

I don't want to go to Yoko's

party.

You don't want to go?

But there'll be cake and ice

cream and games.

It'll be fun.

I know, but I still don't

want to go.

Yoko will be disappointed if

she doesn't see you.

She'll be disappointed anyway

when she sees my gift.

You've made a beautiful gift,

and I think Yoko will love it,

sugar snap.

sugar snap.
I hope so.

I hope so.

YOKO: Look at all these

jellybeans!

Ten different flavours.

Ten different flavours.
Try one of those.

Try one of those.

Mm, pineapple!

And this is for after you've

eaten your jellybeans.

A glow-in-the-dark

toothbrush!

It really works!

I tried it.

ALL: Ew!

You already brushed your

teeth with it?

No, no!

I don't mean on my teeth.

Last night, I watched it glow in

the dark.

the dark.
Oh, that's what you meant!

Oh, that's what you meant!

Open mine now.

Open mine now.
Okay.

Okay.

Oh...

This is beautiful.

Listen.

[Music playing]

A music box!

Thank you, Timothy!

You're welcome.

[Franks giggling]

Open our gift!

Yeah, open ours!

Which one is it?

I'll give it to her.

No, I'll give it to her.

[Giggling]

BOTH: We'll both give it to

BOTH: We'll both give it to
her!

her!

her!
[Laughing]

[Laughing]

Hopping frogs!

Hopping frogs!

That's a great gift.

Thank you, Frank and Frank.

BOTH: You're welcome.

This gift is from me, Yoko.

Happy birthday.

Happy birthday.
Thanks, Grace.

Thanks, Grace.

Oh, Grace, this is beautiful.

ALL: Wow!

ALL: Wow!
It is, isn't it?

It is, isn't it?

Wow!

Are those real diamonds?

GRACE: Well, not actually,

but they're almost real.

Thank you, Grace.

You're welcome, Yoko.

Would everyone like some

birthday cake now?

[Cheering]

I love cake and ice cream.

Oh boy!

Wait!

There's another gift!

That's Nora's!

Oh no!

The paper and flowers are so

pretty, Nora.

pretty, Nora.
Uh-huh...

Uh-huh...

An emerald dance slipper!

Well, it wasn't from the Gift

Gallery, but--

I know!

You got it out of Weeds and

Seeds cereal.

We have eaten so many boxes

trying to find one that will

match.

Huh?

Match what?

The other emerald slipper for

The other emerald slipper for
my mitsuko doll.

my mitsuko doll.

Oh!

Oh!
Yeah!

Yeah!

Thank you, Nora.

You're welcome.

It's the only thing my doll can

Come on, everybody, it's time
