[Annie] Wait, wait, wait. I'm not ready.
I'm not ready!
Okay, I'm ready.
Music Monsters.
Art...
"Glance of a landscape,"
painted by...
Paul Klee.
And music...
[music plays]
"Piano Concerto No. 21",
written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
♪ Hi, hi, hi ♪
I'm Annie.
And this is one of my favorite books.
It's a story about monsters.
-Ooh.
-But, Annie,
aren't you afraid of monsters?
Not me. I think monsters are neat.
Especially the monsters in this book.
They're music monsters.
Whoa, music monsters.
Do you want to see
the cool music monsters in my book?
Great!
Once upon a time,
there were four best friend
music monsters.
A blue monster...
[violin plays]
A green monster...
[flute plays]
An orange monster...
[French horn plays]
And my favorite monster of all...
The Little Red Monster.
[Leo] Hmm.
I don't see a Little Red Monster.
Where is the red monster?
Yes! There he is.
[piano plays]
[all laughing]
[Annie] The music monsters
all love to play and make music.
[violin plays]
[flute plays]
[French horn plays]
-[boing]
-[music plays at once]
[sniffling]
[Quincy] Aww. They got a boo-boo.
[June] They look sad.
[Annie] Yes.
Sometimes the music monsters
would feel sad or scared.
But whenever that happened,
the Little Red Monster
always made them feel better.
He'd sing them a special song,
his smile song!
["Piano Concerto No. 21" plays]
[June] Wow. His song made
the other monsters feel better.
[Quincy] He made everyone smile.
No wonder the Little Red Monster
is your favorite, Annie.
Yeah. He has smile power.
I just wish someday
I could meet the Little Red Monster.
["Piano Concerto No. 21" plays]
Listen.
It sounds like there's someone
under Annie's bed.
[music continues]
Who do you think is under my bed?
Yes. It's the Little Red Monster.
["Piano Concerto No. 21" plays]
Little Red Monster
wanted to come meet Annie.
He's singing his smile song for her.
["Piano Concerto No. 21" plays]
It worked. His smile song made me smile.
Me, too.
Everyone is smiling.
Can you smile really big like me?
Wow! What a great smile.
Thanks for making us smile,
Little Red Monster.
[piano plays]
[clashing music plays]
Hey! That sounds like
the other music monsters.
Sounds like they're in trouble.
Come on!
Little Red Monster,
we can use my telescope
to look for your friends.
-[growling]
-[music playing]
[June] Oh, no!
That big, grumpy water monster
is trapping your friends in a cage.
[Annie gasps]
That's the Loch Ness Monster.
She doesn't like it
when people are happy and having fun.
[Leo] This is awful!
Now Little Red Monster's friends
can't play and have fun anymore.
[June] Poor music monsters. They're sad.
[piano plays]
Look. Little Red Monster
wants to save his friends.
But he's going to need help.
Don't worry, Little Red Monster.
We'll help you rescue them.
We're the Little Einsteins.
[piano plays]
But to save Little Red Monster's friends,
we're going to need your help.
Will you help us save
Little Red Monster's friends?
Great!
We've got a mission.
We're going to save
Little Red Monster's friends.
Let the mission...
begin!
Buckle your seatbelts!
[kids] Seatbelts buckled!
Prepare for blast-off!
We need to give Rocket a lot of power.
Put your hands on your lap
and pat with us!
Pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat, pat.
Faster!
[rapidly] Pat, pat, pat, pat, pat.
Now, raise your arms as high as you can
and say, "blast-off!"
[all] Blast-off!
[June] Hold on tight, 'cause here we go!
-Whoo-hoo!
-All right!
I hear Little Red Monster's friends.
[whimpering]
Poor music monsters.
They're still trapped inside
the grumpy Loch Ness Monster's cage.
[piano plays]
Right, Little Red Monster.
We have to hurry and rescue them.
[Quincy] Go Rocket!
[Leo] We made it all the way to Scotland.
Come on, team.
Little Red Monster's
going to show us the way.
Ooh.
To get to Little Red Monster's friends,
we have to go through an icky, spooky bog.
Yikes! I'm not sure I want to go in there.
[Leo] It looks kind of scary.
["Piano Concerto No. 21" plays]
Little Red Monster is trying
to help us not feel scared.
He's singing his smile song.
Little Red Monster, I'll sing it with you.

The smile song worked.
I don't feel scared anymore.
I feel better, too.
[Leo] His song even made Rocket smile.
Come on, Little Red Monster.
Whoa, look. There's music in the bog.
Hmm.
I don't see Little Red Monster anywhere.
Where did he go?
[gasps] Yes, there he is.
He's riding on a music note.
[all laughing]
What a funny little monster.
[piano plays]
[Leo] The music note is carrying
Little Red Monster across the bog.
Come on, team. We can all ride the notes.
[classical music plays]
[all] Whee!
This is awesome.
[classical music continues]
-[crunching]
-Uh-oh.
That sounds like a snapping turtle.
-[music stops]
-Where is the snapping turtle?
[crunching]
Yes. He's at the bottom of the bog
like us.
[Leo] Yikes!
We need to make our notes go up high
so we don't get snapped by the turtle.
[piano plays]
Listen.
Little Red Monster knows what to do.
He's singing high notes.
[piano plays]
When he sings a high note,
it makes his music note go up high
over the snapping turtle.
Come on. We can do that, too.
Hold up your microphone like me.

Thanks for singing high and low with us.
We must be getting closer
to Little Red Monster's friends.
[music plays]
I hear them. We have to go this way.
Ooh, look.
The path goes through Edinburgh castle.
[June] It sure is dark in here.
Thanks, Rocket.
Little Red Monster sees the way out.
[door slams]
Uh-oh. The door closed.
[oboe plays]
That's not just any door.
It's a door monster!
A door monster?
[oboe plays]
The door monster doesn't want
to let us out of this castle.
But we need to get out so we can save
Little Red Monster's friends.
[piano trills]
Listen.
The door monster has a keyhole
on his nose that makes music.
The keyhole sounds like a piano.
[piano trills]
To open the door monster's door,
we need to find a key
that sounds like a piano.
[piano plays]
Look. Little Red Monster found keys.
[June] Ooh. But there are four keys.
We're going to have to listen carefully
to find the one key
that sounds like a piano.
I know what a piano sounds like.
A piano sounds like this.
[playing piano]
Now let's listen to the keys.
Put your hand up next to your ear and
listen.

Ooh. That's tricky.
Let's listen one more time.
Remember, a piano sounds like this.

Which key sounds like the piano?
The yellow key. Yes.
[all] Hooray!
We did it.
We opened the door monster's door.
[door monster sobbing]
Aww. The door monster is crying.
[Leo] He's sad that we're
leaving his castle.
I wish there was some way
we could make him feel better.

I hear Little Red Monster's friends.
[whimpering]
[Leo] They really want to get out,
but the grumpy Loch Ness Monster
won't let them go.
We've got to hurry and rescue them.
Don't worry.
Rocket can get us there.
He can fly super fast!

[June] And look.
The Loch Ness Monster is sleeping.
[snoring]
Don't worry, music monsters.
We'll have you
out of that cage in no time.
[piano plays]
Uh-oh. Little Red Monster sees trouble.
Did the Loch Ness Monster
wake up from her nap?
[growling]
You're right. She woke up.
And she looks really grumpy.
Oh, no. The Loch Ness Monster
doesn't want Little Red Monster
to save his friends.
She doesn't like it
when they're happy and smiling.
But smiling is wonderful.
I wish we could show the Loch Ness Monster
how good it feels to smile.
