something else

interesting once you get to know a
little about them
snakes are yucky
a customer
[Music]
and what can we do for you
my battered boots need fixing up i'm
going spelunking next week

splendid in no time
grandpa what's spelunking
spelunking is what spelunkers do explore
deep dark caves

after the fix it box they go
[Music]
where will my feet take me today
[Music]

a cave
hello
hello
oh an echo
an echo
no it's me
you're a bat
and you're a little girl
i'm barty who are you
franny but please stay away i'm scared
of baths
really
i can't believe anyone would be afraid
of me
well i am bats are scary i'm afraid
they'll fly around and get tangled in my
hair
bats don't do that franny
so bats aren't scary
not once you get to know us bats are
small and harmless and only come out
after dark
well
most of us anyway
i'm afraid of the night
then what are you doing in this dirt
cave
i feel nice and safe in my small cozy
cave
[Music]
but
not so safe outside of it
the night's very big and very spooky
and i'm just a little scaredy back
what if we went outside together
really
but i thought you were afraid of me
not since i got to know you better
you're more sweet than scary
maybe the night won't feel so spooky
once you get to know it
come on barty follow me
[Music]
wait up franny
[Music]
those sure are weird noises
i told you it's spooky out here and big
and dark
shimmering shoelaces the moon is really
[Music]
and bright
barney look behind you
[Music]
franny
what was that
it was your own shadow silly
oh yeah
i thought it was something sneaking up
on me the night is big but not as dark
as i thought it'd be
what are you doing
i'm catching bugs for my supper
there are lots more out here than in my
little cave
bats eat bugs i didn't know that
[Music]
hey
who turned out the light it's just a
cloud covering the moon birdie
[Music]
it isn't always bright at night but that
doesn't mean it has to be scary
quick hide
who
am i
can you guess
i think i know who he is
what about you barney
um
another bad
no he's a hoot owl that's who
you forgot it
i'm
who are you
my name is franny and that's barty
i think your friend's trying to sleep
yes
he's hanging upside down
that's how bad sleep
they do i didn't know that
[Music]
i wasn't sleeping
i was hiding barty is afraid of the
night
afreed but being out at night
is the best
it's a real
food
a real hoot
oh i get it hoot
you are pretty funny
thanks
he was very nice wasn't he
yes
can i go back to my nice cozy cave now
what was that
[Music]
i don't know
but it sounds big and scary what should
we do
the best way to find out what's making a
noise is to follow it
follow it
hey hey wait for me
[Music]
over
here
all i see is that little frog
the frog made that noise
he sounded big and scary but he's really
just small and green then why was i so
scared there is nothing to be afraid of
let's go
[Music]
franny
you're you're not afraid of me again are
you
no you just startled me
but why did you zoom at me like that
because when i flew in there a big night
monster jumped out at me and i got all
scared and i needed a hug
next time all you have to do is ask for
one
okay could i have that hug now please
absolutely
[Music]
there is that better
yes
thanks
but
what about the
monster
let's go have a look
is that your night monster party
i think so
but it's really just an old tree huh
the shadows made it look like it had
spooky eyes and a mouth
and those branches look like big scary
hands i know
i thought they were trying to grab me
i guess things seem bad or scary until
you find out more about them
i thought bats were scary until i got to
know you
and the night sure is different than i
thought
it's really kind of a
hoot
i have to go now birdie will you be okay
by yourself
oh yes
doodle who
[Music]
that was a hoot
[Music]
i know who this belongs to
[Music]
another treasure for my shoebox
[Music]
grandpa could we still look at this
snake book together why of course
but i thought snakes were yucky
maybe they aren't i thought bats were
scary but after meeting barty i know
that isn't true
party
he's a little bat did you know he eats
bugs at night sleeps upside down all day
and he's more sweet than scary i didn't
know that you do now

what i'm thinking
maybe piper's scared
what who ever heard of a polar bear

try

like this
[Music]
fantastic piper
whoa
that was fun
now it's time to try it in the water
i'm i'm too scared to just jump in
hmm
i know why don't you sit down on the
edge of the iceberg and try kicking your
feet in the water
yes piper then you can get used to it
