- Not that leg, nick.
Move the other leg.

- This one, sally?

- No, the other one.

Both: whoa.

[Both groan and laugh]

- Need a hand?

- It's the cat.

- The cat in the hat.

Both: ugh.
Thanks, cat.

- Were you playing
"falling down"?

It's one of my favorite games.

- No, we're practicing
to be in a three-legged race.

- But it's hard
to walk with three legs

When you're used to just two.

- Why not try one leg instead?

You might be very good at it.

- But, cat, we need to learn
to walk on three legs, not one.

- Ah.

Well, then we should talk
to my old friend,

Sid the centipede.

He lives nearby
in the woodsy woods.

- What's a centipede?

- A long creepy-crawly,
with lots and lots of legs.

If anyone knows about walking
on more than two legs, it's sid.

- Oh, can we go see him?

- Of course.

Your mother will not mind at all
if you do.

- Mom, can we go to woodsy wood
with cat

To learn
about walking on three legs?

- Woodsy woods?

Sounds like fun, honey.

Just be sure
to put your best foot forward.

- We will.

Thanks, mom.

Both: we can go! We can go!

- I know! I know!

To the thinga-ma-jigger.

- I don't see why you guys need
to learn to walk on three legs.

I get around with no legs
at all.

Whoo-hoo-hoo!

Hoo-hoo-hoo!

[Laughs]
it's all in the tail.

- We'd love to hear your tale
about your tail,

But right now, are you ready?
Both: yes we are.

- Are you steady?
Both: yes, we are.

- There it is, the woodsy woods.

- It's so beautiful.

- And so big.

- But sid is very small.

Do you think we should...

Both: press the shrinkamadoodle.

- Exactly.

- Um, where is he?

- [Laughs]

- Hello, cat.

- It's my old friend,
sid the centipede.

It's good to see you.

- Welcome to the woodsy woods.

I see you've brought
some friends.

- I'm nick.

Nice to meet you.

- I'm sally.

We've come to ask you
about walking on three legs.

- Huh? Only three?

Why not more?

- Whoa.

Cat was right.

You do have lots.

- And lots.

- And lots of legs.

How do you walk
with so many legs?

- There's nothing to it.

It's just a matter
of getting into a rhythm.

Tick-tock. Tick-tock.

Let's all walk.

Yeah.

Tick-tock. Tick-tock.

Check out when I walk.

- Look, sid's legs make a wave
when he walks.

- How'd you like
to ride the wave?

You'll get the feel
of how I move.

Both: sure.

- Hop on.

- [Straining]

- Here I go.

[Groans]

- To climb on sid's back,
I know just what to do.

Call in your friends,
thing one and thing two.

[Whistles]

Both: whee.

Hello.

- B-r-r-bbb.

- Ugh. All right.

- Brr. Oh, yehee.

- Eh-hoo-do.
- Ho-ho-ho.

- Yay!
Ah-hoo-hoo.

[Laughter

Both: thanks, things.
- Sure.

- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye.

- Everyone ready?

Both: yes!
Whoa.

- Wait for me.

Both: whee!

- Thanks, sid.

That was so much fun.

- Was it ever.

- Glad you enjoyed it.

- [Panting]

And the winner is sid,
fastest feet in the forest.

Both: yay!

- Yeah, I am kind of fast.

Of course, it helps
that I have so many legs.

- But we still need to learn
to walk on just three.

- You should talk to my friend,
spinny.

She has fewer legs than I do.

- Of course, spinny the spider.

I'm sure she can help us.

- She lives just
past that mushroom.

- Then let's go-go-go.

- Bye, sid.

- Thanks for your help.

- Any time.

- Hello there.

- Oh. Greetings, spinny.

Nick, sally and I just
popped by to see how you walk.

- We're going to run
in a three-legged race.

- But we're having trouble
walking on more than two legs.

- I walk on more than two legs
every day.

- It looks like you walk on
one, two, three, four...

- Five, six, seven, eight legs.

- I do have eight legs,
but when I walk,

I only move four legs at a time,
two on each side.

The most important thing is to
find a rhythm and keep the b*at.

- Maybe you can all
take a walk together

With nick and sally
on your back.

- On my back?

Oh, my, what fun.

All aboard.

Hold on tight.

Both: yeah! Whoopee!

- Whee.

- Thanks, spinny.

- You are welcome.

I hope that gave you the feeling
of walking on eight feet.

- It did.

You showed us how to walk
with two legs on one side

And two on the other,

But we still don't know
how to walk on three legs.

- Right side up
or upside down.

- You need to speak to someone
with fewer legs than me.

My friend bugsy, the beetle,

Lives just over there
in the next clearing.

- Let's go see him. Follow me.

- Bye, spinny.

- Thanks for your help.

- Good luck.
See y'all.

- Bugsy!

Bugsy the beetle.

Ah! There he is.

- Where?

All I see
are a few small stones.

- Oh.
[Whispers] hello, bugsy.

- Oh.
- Sorry to wake you.

- Oh, sorry.
I must have drifted off.

- These are my friends,
nick and sally.

- Yo, nick.

Yo, yo, sally.

- I've never been
high-fived with a foot before.

- Nick and sally want to learn
how to walk on three legs.

- But, cat,
bugsy has six legs, not three.

- Well, he has three
on each side, does he not?

- That's true.

We'd like to learn how you walk,
bugsy.

- I never think about
how I walk.

I just do it, you know?

- I know how you do it, bugsy.

You move two legs on one side
and one on the other side.

Then you switch sides.

- Two on one side?

No, I don't think so.
Nope, I don't do that.

Eh, do i?

- You certainly do.

We can show you.
First we have to form a line.

Fall in, guys, and hold on.

Now we have six legs
just like you.

See? One, two.

- Three, four.

- Five, six.

- To walk like you do,
we move three legs at a time,

Two on this side
and one on that side.

Let's go.

- It's great to walk like bugsy,

But sally and I
don't have six legs.

- Hey, now I get it.

It doesn't matter
how many legs we have.

Everyone has different numbers
of legs,

But they all keep the rhythm
and keep the b*at.

- Yeah.
That's what we need to do too.

Let's get back home
and practice.

- To the thinga-ma-jigger.

- Thank you.

- Bye, bugsy.

- Any time.

- In order to run
in a three-legged race,

You have to keep a steady pace.

If you find a rhythm
and keep the b*at,

I promise you won't
fall all over your feet.

[Cackling]

Both: inside, outside.

Inside, outside,
inside.

- I think we've got it.

- We do! We do!

- You just might win a ribbon
in the race.

- I hope so.

We found our own special rhythm.

- And a b*at
that's easy to repeat.

- I found my jumping rhythm too.

It's simple.

Bounce, bounce, bounce,
bounce--falling!

[Laughter]

- Hi, kids.

Today I have a very hard
question for you.

Which of these three
eats bugs for dinner?

Is it a dog, or is it nick,

Or is it this plant
called the venus flytrap?

Did you say that the venus
flytrap eats bugs?

That's right.

A venus flytrap is one of only
a few plants that eats bugs.

Did you get it this time?

Well, next time,
I'll stump you for sure.

Both: time to take a picture
with our snapper-rama cameras.

- I'll take the picture.

- And I'll guess what it is.

[Shutter snaps]

I see a blue sky with clouds.

Oh, and some rocks.

It looks like a mountain.

There's snow on top of it,

But not on the ground
where we are.

- The higher up you go,
the colder it gets.

That mountain is so tall,

It's cold enough to have
snow way on top.

- Great photo, nick.

- Prepare to be amazed, sally,

As super nick jumps
three giant jumps in a row.

- One, two, and...

- Are you okay, nick?

- I'm good, sally,
but my shirt isn't.

Look: a hole.

- Maybe your mom can fix it.

- Or you can leave the fixing
to me.

- It's the cat.
- The cat in the hat.

- All I need
is the perfect patch,

And I'll fix your shirt
in a jiffy.

- Great. Do you have one?

- Looks to me like nick
is wearing a cotton shirt.

I'll need a cotton patch
to match.

Hmm. Too ziggy.

Too dotty.

Too stripy.

Seems I don't have
the perfect patch.

- Aw.
- But I know who will.

- Who?
- Dr. Twiggles, the tree doctor.

- How can a tree doctor help?

- Oh, he can patch
all kinds of trouble.

Would you like to visit him
in fluff-n-stuff fields?

- Yes, please.

- Your mother will not mind
at all if you do.

- Mom, can we go with cat to see
dr. Twiggles, the tree doctor,

In fluff-n-stuff fields?

- Dr. Twiggles?

Sure. Have a fluffy good time.

- We will.

Both: we can go!
We can go!

- I know! I know!

To the thinga-ma-jigger.

- Arrrg!

I've got the perfect patch
for you right here, nick.

- Thanks, fish,

But that's an eye patch,
not a shirt patch.

- Aye, so it be.

[Laughter]

- Next stop, dr. Twiggles.

Buckle up.

- Whoa. That looks like snow.

- It can't be.

It's too hot.

- Let's take a closer look.

- Hi, dr. Twiggles.

I brought sally and nick
to see you.

- Hi.
- Hello.

- Cat says you can fix my shirt.

- Twiggle-sticks.
I love to fix.

Here, let me have a look-see.

Ooh.

Nice comfy cotton,
beautiful color.

Oh, you have a hole
in your shirt.

You need a patch.

- That's what cat said.

- A cotton patch
that's a perfect match.

- Then you've come
to the right place.

This cotton plant
I'm growing in rows

Is the same fluffy plant
that makes cottony clothes.

- You can make clothes
from plants?

- Fantastic, isn't it?

But not just any plants,
cotton plants.

Its fluff is called fiber.

- Ooh.

The fiber feels very soft.

- Perfect for making clothes.

[Pop]
- huh?

[Pop]

Hm.

[Pop]
ah!

This cotton's hopping
to get popping.

- Wonderful.

When the cotton balls
start poppin',

Time to get pickin'.

- Oh, can we help?

We're super pickers.

- Sure, but you'll need
to protect your hands

From the scratchy leaves
and stems.

- These handy-dandy cotton
picking gloves

Will certainly assist.

- Then let's get picking.

- Whoa.
I think we have enough fluff.

- Enough for one perfect patch.

- Hooray.

I'm going to get my patch.
- Not yet.

We've got to roll it
into a tight ball first.

- We can do that.

- Roll it tight, now.

- Like this?

- Well done.

Time to clean the cotton.

Walk this way, please.

Whee-ooh,
whee-ooh, whee-ooh!

All: whee-ooh, whee-ooh!

Whee-ooh.

- Whoa.

Is that a washing machine?

- It is,
a cotton washing machine.

nick.

- Now, that's what I call
rub-a-dub clean.

- Are those fans
drying the cotton?

- Right you are.

Next the rollers pull the cotton
through that comb.

- What are all those hard
little bits?

- They look like seeds
and leaves.

- Right.

The seeds and leaves
from the cotton plant

Can't get through that comb
no matter how hard they squeeze.

- Look, our cotton
is all clean and dry.

- And in smaller pieces.

Oh, it's even softer
than before.

- But it still
doesn't match my shirt.

- Not yet.

We need to use these.

- Those look like combs.

- Why thank you very much.

I could use a good combing.

- Uh-uh-uh.

These combs are used

To straighten out
all the cotton fibers.

Here, give it a try.

Both: yeah.

- Look, we're combing it
nice and straight,

Just like when mom
combs my hair.

- Twiggle-tastic.

Super-stretched
and super-straightened.

Now it's time
for the super-spinner.

All: the super-spinner.

- Hmm. It isn't here.

- I'm a super spinner.

Perhaps I can help.

- Perhaps you can.

Now, hang on.

- Whoa. Yikes.

- He's twisting
and twirling the fibers together

To make cotton thread.

- But how do you make the thread
into a patch of cloth?

- Follow me,
and you'll soon see.

All: whee-ooh, whee-ooh,
whee-ooh.

- Wait for me.

Whee-ooh, whee-ooh,
whee-ooh.

- My loom.

It takes the tread we made
and turns it into cloth.

See?

- Zippidy-zoo.

Uh-oh.

Your loom went kaboom.

- Oh, dear.

This may take a while to fix.

- When your loom is kaput
with bits here and there,

Call thing one and thing two
for a quick repair.

[Whistles]

Both: hello.

- Do-do-do.
Br-ra-a-a.

Both: ta-dah.

All: yay.

- Here do-do.
- Why thanks ever so.

Both: bye-bye.

- Yes, thank you, things.

Now, we pull our thread
over and under.

Over and under.

- It'll take a long time.

- Not with the help
of the thinga-ma-jigger.

- We're flying the
thinga-ma-jigger into the loom?

- But we're too big
to fit inside it.

- Not at all when you get small.

Sally,
press the shrinkamadoodle.

- All hooked up and ready to go.

- What are we waiting for?

- Over, under.

Over, under.

Over, under.
Over, under.

Both: whee, whee,

Whee-ooh.

- All right.

- Whoo.

- It's working.

We're making a patch.

- A patch picked fresh
off the loom.

- It's a very nice patch.

- But not quite a perfect match.

- Oh, we need some berries.

- For eating?

- No, squishing.

- Whoa.

- Berry juice,
nature's very own paint,

And the color from this berry
won't wash away.

- Wow.
Plants can do so many things.

- A perfect patch
ready for sewing.

- And I'm just itchin'
to get stitchin'.

[Laughter]

- Thanks, dr. Twiggles.

- Any time.

Good-bye.

- See you later.
- Bye.

- The cotton plant
grows amazing white fluff.

Its soft, fuzzy fibers
are really quite tough.

For cleaning and combing
and spinning it's true,

And stitching together
to make clothes for you.

- This is the best patch ever.

- Let me see again.

Oh! Oh, no.

I've torn my dress.

- Why, I can fix that in a jiffy
with the perfect patch.

Hmm, too spotty.

Too purpley.

Too holey.

Too furry.

- Welcome to hat chat.

Sure is ch-ch-chilly here
in antarctica.

- But we had to come here

To interview our friend
the penguin.

- Meet my son, junior.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- How do you stay warm?

- We have a thick layer
of fat under our skin

And special feathers
that overlap.

- You mean like this?
- Right.

Our feathers are covered
in a special oil

To make us
waterproof and windproof.

- Hey, what are those penguins
doing?

- When it gets really cold,
we huddle together.

The heat from all our bodies
helps us keep each other warm.

- Hey, where did junior go?

- Under dad.

I just stay under here
nice and warm.

And if dad needs to go
somewhere, he carries me.

Whee.

Bye-bye.

- Bye-bye.

- That's a wrap
with our friends, the penguins.

Bye, everybody.

- Whee. Okay.
- Oh, yippee.

- Veggies grow differently.
That's what I've found.

Root vegetables
grow down under the ground.

Like carrots and radishes,
potatoes, a beet,

The best parts
to eat grow under our feet.

- Oh.
- Whoa.

- On the ground
you'll find leafy ones

Growing in rows, like lettuce,
of course, which everyone knows.

And there's cabbage
and cauliflower, broccoli too.

The sun and the rain
make them healthy for you.

And beans hang on bushes,
and here's something odd,

The peas that we eat
grow inside of a pod.

There are many more vegetables,
all of them yummy.

They wait on your plate
on the way to your tummy.

Both: time to take a picture

- I'll take the picture.

- And I'll guess what it is.

[Shutter snaps]

It looks like polka dots
or freckles.

Oh, it's a fruit,
a strawberry.

- You're right.

- How come it has so many
of those little yellow things?

- They're seeds.

A strawberry has its seeds

- Next time
I get to take the picture.
