Oh no!

My brother jack looks sick.

I've got to get home to help.

[ ♪♪ ]

A-achooooo! [ Moan ]

Whoa, jack, are you okay?

No!

I have a terrible... A-a-a-achooo...

Cold.

I've been sneezing all day long.

That's no fun.

So I started reading this really cool comic book...

A-a-achoo!

[ Moan ] thanks.

[ Sigh ] but I just finished it,

And I don't have any more comic books to read.

[ Blowing nose ]

Oh-h.

Hey, I've got an idea!

I'll be back soon.

[ ♪♪ ]

I'm going to make jack another comic book!

Hmm, I don't know what to draw.

Okay, whyatt, state your problem.

I want to make jack a comic book,

But I don't know what it should be about.

Oh no! That's a problem.

How can I figure out what to draw?

Good question, whyatt.

When we have a question, we look...

All: in a book!

Which book should we look in?

Peas and carrots, carrots and peas.

Let's read!

Why writer, highlight!

Read with me.

Hello, your highness.

Young boy, it's good to see you,

But you have not made me anything

In a very long time.

I'll draw the emperor a picture!

[ Giggles ]

Huh.

But I don't know what to draw!

Hey, the boy doesn't know what to draw for the emperor.

Just like I don't know what to draw for jack!

And that, super readers,

Is why we are in this book.

We both don't know what to draw.

We need to talk to that boy.

Let's roll!

[ ♪♪ ]

[ Giggles ]

Hi. We're the super readers,

And we want to talk to you.

Maybe we can help you figure out what to draw.

Really? That would be great!

'Cause I don't even know where to start.

Hmm.

Well, first you need something to draw with.

Where are all of your art supplies?

Over here...

In this closet.

But i... [ Grunting ]

Can't... Reach what I need.

How will get my art supplies

So I can make my picture?

[ ♪♪ ]

Alpha pig, to the rescue!

With my lucky letter lasso,

I can get the art supplies you need.

You'll help me, right?

Phew!

First we need something

That begins with the letter "p".

Which one of these things starts with "p"?

Children: paper!

Alpha pig: paper starts with "p"!

Here's the paper you need.

Thanks, alpha pig!

Now, what do you see that begins with "m"?

Children: markers!

Alpha pig: markers begin with the letter "m".

And here are some markers for you.

Thanks!

Lickety letters!

We used our alphabet

To help get the boy his art supplies.

And now he can draw his picture.

Let's give ourselves a big thumbs up!

Remember to keep your eyes out for super letters!

[ ♪♪ ]

Oh! You see super letters?

Which letters did you find?

Children: "d"! "E"!

"D" and "e".

We need to put them in...

Our super duper...

Computer!

[ Beeping ] four more super letters

And then we'll get...

Our super story answer! [ Triumphant ♪♪ ]

Right on, readers!

Now you're ready to make your picture.

Perfect!

But... I still don't know what to draw.

How about drawing something...

Red?

And... Round!

Hmm, let's see.

Round,

Kind of blobby over here...

With big purple eyes.

I know!

A bit more there.

Hey! I drew a goblin.

He's kind of scary.

[ Chittering ] ah!

All: ahhhhhhhh!

My scary goblin drawing came to life.

[ Chittering ] shoo, scary goblin! Shoo!

I don't want to draw anything scary.

But I don't know what else to draw.

Wonder red to the rescue!

With my wonder words basket,

I can find something else for you to draw.

What letter is this?

Children: "b"!

"B". And what sound does "b" make?

Children: buh! Buh!

Buh. Buh.

And this says "at"!

Buh-at.

What word is this?

Children: bat!

Bat!

Bat is an "at" word.

I love "at" words!

It's time to rhyme!

♪ At, rat, bat ♪

♪ Wonderific, you're terrific ♪

♪ Hat, mat, cat ♪

♪ Wonderific, you're terrific ♪

At!

Would you like to draw a bat?

A bat? Aah!

No! I don't want to draw a bat.

I think they're kind of... Scary.

Oh. Okay.

Let's try another "at" word.

What letter is this?

Children: "c"!

"C"! And what sound does "c" make?

Children: cuh! Cuh!

Cuh. Cuh.

And this says "at".

Cuh-at.

What word is this?

Children: cat!

Cat!

Do you want to draw a cat?

I love cats!

Yeah! I want to draw a cat!

Wonderific!

You are terrific.

We used our "at" words

To find out what the boy likes to draw.

Hooray! I'm going to draw a cat.

Let's see.

Oh, a face...

Pointy ears...

Four paws...

A tail...

There!

What a cute cat.

[ Meowing ] [ giggling ]

Ah! My drawing came to life!

Look! My cat's real!

Ah! Oh my peas!

The cat did come to life!

[ Meow ]

I'm going to draw another cat!

And then we'll get...

Our super story answer! [ Triumphant ♪♪ ]

Way to go, super readers!

[ ♪♪ ]

Goblin: [ chittering ]

[ Gasps ] w-w-what was that?

[ Chittering ]

The goblin's back!

[ Gasps/wails ]

[ Meowing ] oh no! Oh no!

[ Chittering ] ahhhh!

Oh, my chinny- chin-chin!

We've got to get that scary goblin out of here!

[ Meowing ]

Maybe the cats can frighten the goblin away.

Okay, cats, meow as loud as you can.

[ Loud meowing ]

That didn't scare the goblin away.

The cats aren't scary enough.

Draw something else! Draw something else!

What about something big...

And green and...

Scary!

Oh no!

This isn't going to work.

I have to draw cats!

See? It says so in my story!

[ Chittering ] [ gasps ]

How will I get rid of the goblin now?

[ ♪♪ ]

Super why to the rescue!

With the power to read,

I can change this story and save the day!

[ ♪♪ ]

Let's change the word...

"Cats" in this sentence.

Zzzap!

Why writer, write!

Super readers, what is big and green and scary?

Maybe "dragons".

Which is the word "dragons"?

It starts with a "d".

Children: that one!

There's the word "dragons".

Zap it with me. Zzzap!

Let's read.

[ ♪♪ ]

Whoa! Look!

I drew dragons and they came alive.

Okay, dragons, roar as loud as you can.

[ Loud roaring ]

[ Frightened chittering ]

Roar again!

[ Roaring ]

Super job, super readers!

We changed the story and helped the boy scare away the goblin.

Is... Is the goblin gone?

Yup!

[ Meowing ]

Now, I just need one last favour.

Dragons, cats,

Can you go back into my picture?

I have to finish my drawing for the emperor!

[ Meowing ]

[ ♪♪ ]

Hmm, okay.

A few more lines, um...

And a square on the bottom...

Uh, then connect the lines together...

There!

Hey! I doodled and made this shape into a throne.

Let me try doodling some more.

Doodling is giving me lots of ideas.

Ta-dah! My picture is done.

[ ♪♪ ]

And just in time.

The emperor is coming!

[ ♪♪ ]

Here is a picture for you, emperor.

My boy, what a wonderful drawing!

Tell me, how did you do it?

Well, at first I wasn't even sure what to draw.

But I just started to doodle,

And my doodles turned into a picture.

Well done! Thank you.

[ ♪♪ ]

[ ♪♪ ]

You see super letters?

Which ones?

Children: "d"! "L"!

Oh yeah! "D" and "l".

Read the letters with me.

The super story answer is...

[ Triumphant ♪♪ ]

But... Why?

Red: because when the boy started to doodle,

He got lots of ideas,

And then he was able to draw a really great picture!

So my question is:

How do I figure out what to draw for my brother jack?

And the answer is:

All: doodle!

Hmm, I get it!

Maybe if I start to doodle,

I'll come up with a great idea too.

Let's go try.

[ ♪♪ ]

All right, let me start to doodle.

Line down here, a couple of triangles.

Mm. A bit over here.

Hmmm!

That looks like it could be...

A monster!

Yeah!

Okay, let's see.

A circle over here,

Then some lines down here.

That looks like it could be a person.

It could be jack!

Hey, I think I have an idea.

I'll call it...

"att*ck of the mean sick monster!"

[ ♪♪ ]

Jack is captured by the mean sick monster,

Who gives him a terrible cold.

But jack knows what to do.

Jack sneaks up to the sick monster...

Mm... With orange juice!

The sick monster is scared of orange juice!

[ Roaring ] "aaah, orange juice!"

The sick monster ran away,

And jack feels all better.

I'm finished with my comic book!

[ ♪♪ ]

Here you go, jack. [ Moan ]

It's another comic book...

About you!

I made it up and drew it myself.

You made this whole thing

By yourself? Mm-hmm.

Wow! Thanks, why.

I already feel a lot better.
