[ humming]

Almost done.

A little over here, a bit under there.

[ chuckles]

Nothing like cleaning up.

Uh... Hey!

Perfect timing, because I just finished my spring cleaning.

Huh? I know you were thinking,

he's a sloth.

He probably sleeps all day and never cleans.

Huh. Well, not this sloth.

I like to keep my home clean and spotless.

Of course, spring cleaning does always makes me want to...

[ yawns]

... you know, maybe take a little nap...

But no, no, I can't sleep today.

I promised Madge that after I've cleaned up my place,

I'd look in on her.

See if she needs any help with her spring cleaning.

So let's go!

Oh, my!

Oh, I just can't believe it!

Hey, Madge, it's nice to see you.

You're looking good today as...

Oh, actually, you don't look so good at all.

You're upset.

What's the matter, Madge?

Oh. Oh, look at these, Snook.

Bits of paper everywhere.

They're all over.

I keep cleaning them up, and then more fall.

Oh, my.

Fall? What do you...

It's raining paper,

and I can't understand why.

Hmm.

Hey, have you ever heard of that?

It's raining paper?

I would have thought that was, well, you know, impossible.

Me too, my dear sloth,

but it's raining paper. Hmm.

There you have it.

Whoa!

Now that is unusual.

Yes. Yes, it is dear Snook,

and I don't know quite what to make of it.

But these bits of paper do look familiar.

Like drawings of insects.

Ants!

Ow!

What was that?

Ow! Ooh, ooh. Oh, my.

[ laughs]: What is going on up there?

Now it's raining nuts and twigs?

Hmm. Paper, nuts and twigs.

Don't worry, Madge.

I'll go take a look.

[ whimpers ]

BOB: Hmm. Old. Hmm... wrinkled.

Hmm. The, uh...

[ swallows]

ants don't even look like these anymore.

Ah, I'll have to start all over again. Hmm.

Bob?!

As you can see, things get a little crazy around here

come spring cleaning time. Huh?

Ow!

Hey, Bob.

Oh, hey, uh, Snook.

Oh, sorry about that.

Uh, just cleaning out these old, uh...

[ gulps]

ant drawings I made, uh, see?

Yes, I do, but

you have to be careful where you throw stuff away.

These pictures are all dropping down on Madge's place.

[ gasps]: Really?

On Madge?

Oh, sorry about that, Snook.

Uh, I never thought of that.

It's just, um, Smooch and Winslow

were throwing out all their old things,

and they me to

toss it, so I was tossing it.

Um, I thought that, uh...

Oh. So Smooch and Winslow are cleaning up, too.

[ leaves rustling ]

Huh? Ow!

Oh, yes.

Those nuts and twigs have been falling on me

for quite a while now.

I guess Burdette's cleaning up her place, too.

Sure looks like it, Bob.

I better go check it out.

See you, Bob.

Bye, Snook.

[ humming]

Clean, clean, nice and clean!

Whoa...

Whoa, Burdette!

Oh, hello, Snook.

Oh. Sorry.

I didn't see you coming in.

Ha, well it seems I wasn't the only one

who got the cleaning bug this morning.

Well, you know, Snook,

I always like to keep my nest clean.

Out with the old twigs and stuff to make way

for the new.

Yeah, Burdette.

But you might want to think about

where all those nuts and, uh, twigs, go

when you throw them out.

Why, don't they just go... away?

You mean they go somewhere?

Yes, they do Burdette.

In fact, your nut shells and twigs are falling

on Madge and Bob.

And Bob was tossing out his old ant drawings,

and they were landing on Madge's place, too.

Oh, my.

Well, I'm going to go apologize to her

and see if I can help clean up.

See you later, Snook!

See ya, Burdette. Good idea!

And I better go see what Smooch and Winslow are up to.

Come with me, okay?

[ humming]

Ah!

Huh.

Ow! Yuck!

Hey, guys, what are you...?

Oh. Hey, Snook.

Hey, Snook. Just, uh... cleaning up some...

BOTH: Banana Peels!

[ laughs]

Whoa, Winslow,Smooch,

that wasn't such a great idea.

Really? I thought it was kind of cool.

They're all gone. Poof!

Uh, I don't think so, Winslow.

Why not, Snook?

Well, because you just dropped your garbage down

on to Madge and everyone else in between.

We did?

Uh-oh!

That's not good.

Oh!

Sorry.

But-But we were just tidying up our Monkey Hut, Snook.

Getting rid of stuff we don't need anymore.

Yeah. You always tell us to keep the hut nice and clean,

just like your place, right, Snook?

I know, guys,

but you can't go throwing stuff out of the tree like that.

Oh, I know.

I'll start gathering up the peels we just dropped.

Yeah, and I'll...

Uh, what will I do?

Why don't you come with me, Winslow?

I'll show you where all of this stuff has been landing.

Oh, my now.

This is just ridiculous.

Hey, Madge, we've come

to help you clear up all this... uh, mess.

Oh, here let me help you with that.

Oh, well, aren't you a dear, dear, but, um...

Madge, uh, you better watch where you're going

with all those banana peels everywhere.

Yes, I know.

Any idea, Winslow, where all the banana peels came from?

Well, um, that's kind of why Snook and I are here.

Oh, good.

Bob and Burdette came by

and helped me clean up all the paper, shells and twigs

that were everywhere.

I thought it was over,

but then these banana peels came down.

You know, Madge, it looks kind of artistic to me.

The sunlight reflecting off the yellow skins,

the sweet smell of overripe fruit in the breeze...

MADGE:Um, Winslow dear, it's trash,

and other people's at that.

And it makes me feel a bit down in the dumps.

Oh, Madge, we're sorry,

but we didn't know

that our cleaning up was making your place a mess.

MADGE:I understand,dear.

Well, now we know

we have to dispose of our garbage responsibly.

Okay, Madge, clean up patrol reporting for duty.

Where shall we start?

To make it up to you,

I've got a plan to get rid of it all.

You have?

Yup. Watch the monkey magic!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, Winslow.

Uh, Winslow, dear, what are you doing?

Dumping the junk behind the bushes.

No more mess in your front yard, huh?

But you're just dumping the garbage

on someone else's place, Winslow.

No, I'm not. Nobody lives over there.

Nobody. Not anybody.

Hey, that's what you think.

You're junk's blocking my worm holes.

Please take it someplace else.

Oh!

Sorry.

Don't worry, worm, we'll come clean that up, too.

[ muttering]

How are we ever going to get rid of our garbage?

Everywhere we look seems to be somebody's home.

Yep. That's the really hard question about garbage, Winslow.

How can you get rid of something you don't want

without hurting somebody else?

Hmm, yes, it is a hard question.

Eh, too hard for this monkey.

Yuck! These sure are mushy.

MADGE: Good thinking, Winslow.

Snook, I think Winslow has the answer to our problem.

Mushy banana peels?

No, Snook.

Using old garbage in new ways is the answer to our problem.

Recycling.

Recycl-what-ing? Huh?

Oh, yeah, recycling.

Making new things out of old things

so that nothing goes to waste.

Oh, recycling.

Cool.

Well, we use our imagination.

See, I do have this beautiful garden...

Oh, right, Madge.

We could collect up all the old banana skins

and Bob's paper and put them

in your compost heap.

Yes. That way, they'll rot down

and we can dig them into the ground next year

to feed the plants.

Cool! We're recycling, we're recycling!

MADGE & SNOOK: Recycle it.

[ laughter]

[ snoring]

[ mumbling]

Oh.

Oh, hey there.

Sorry I was sleeping.

I guess you saw that, huh?

Hey, I wasn't snoring, was I?

Uh, you'd tell me if I snored, right?

Wouldn't you?

Was I?

[ groaning]

Hey, it's nice and warm today.

Do you live where it's hot, or do you live where it's cold?

A little of both?

[ chuckles]

I bet you live where it's just right.

So, what do you like to do when it's hot?

Heat doesn't worry us sloths too much, because we move slow.

Hey, maybe I'll do a little survey today

and see what everyone else in the world tree

likes to do when it's hot.

Come on, let's go see.

[ grunts]

Whoa!

Hey, Winslow, where are you going?

Hey, Snook.

I'm getting ready to take a nap in the shade.

Aw, that sounds good.

I was wondering what everyone was going to do today

with so much sun.

Yep, I've got the perfect shady spot...

[ whispering]: and no one's going to be there but me.

SMOOCH: Not as shady as mine, Winslow.

Oh, hey, Smooch.

I didn't see you in those leaves.

Yep. That's because my spot is so shady, you can't even see me.

Mm, well, it is shady, Smooch,

but it's not as pretty and shady as mine.

Oh, really?

Well, then where is your pretty, shady spot,

and-and can I join you?

Not telling. And there's only room for one.

Uh, well, at least you both have shade.

That's good, right?

Yep, and I'm going back to my shady spot

since Winslow's not inviting me to his.

[ grunts]

Hey, do you want to see my spot, Snook?

It's a secret, but I can show you.

Oh, okay, but you don't mind if we see

what everyone else is doing along the way?

I-I'm doing a survey.

Sure. Why not?

As long as it's on the way.

Whew!

Hey, Winslow, let's take a break

and sit on this log for a bit.

What? Mm, okay, Snook, but not for too long.

I wonder where everyone is today.

Hey, Snook. I'm right here.

SNOOK:Huh?

Hey, Wartz!

Whatcha doing?

I'm keeping cool in this shady log, Winslow.

Oh, that sounds good.

Hmm, well, it's not as good or pretty as my shady spot.

Oh, really?

Well, what's your spot like?

Can I share it with you?

Nope. There's only room for one, and that's me.

Oh, really?

Okay.

Oh, well, you've got a nice, cool spot

of your own already, Wartz.

Oh, sure have, Snook.

When the sun gets hot, you got to find your spot.

[ laughs]

[ chuckles]: Sounds good.

Well, Winslow, it's looking like

the answer to my survey is that on sunny days,

most animals, like you, Smooch and Wartz here,

just want a cool place to hang out in.

Is that what you like to do, too?

You don't want to spend too much time in the sun.

Come on, Snook, let's get going.

Okay, Winslow. Bye, Wartz.

Bye, guys.

I wonder what Ick's doing today?

Hmm, I've got to admit, Ick's got a good spot.

Cool water.

Yeah. He's probably way down at the bottom

of the water hole right now.

You know, Winslow, I think I'll hang around here

until Ick pops up and get him to take part in our survey.

I haven't interviewed a fish yet.

Well, you can wait for Ick,

but I'm going to go to my spot.

Oh, come by if you want to see me later, Snook,

and I'll show you.

Then you'll have a complete survey.

Oh, okay, Winslow.

[ humming]

Ah!

This is the best!

So cool.

So shady.

And very pretty, too.

Nice huh?

I think I'll just settle in for a snooze.

Mm...

I'm going to sleep till bedtime.

Hey there.

I'm still waiting for Ick.

No point in moving too far in this heat.

And I think it's a bit cooler down here

than up in my tree house.

Hmm.

I wonder what Ick is doing down there?

Hey, Snook!

Ah!

What's a sloth hanging out down here for?

Oh, there you are, Ick.

I'm doing a survey to see what everyone is doing today

with it being so hot.

Well, I know what everybody shoulddo.

You do?Yup.

Everyone should come on down

to the bottom of the water hole!

That's where the water is coolest-- guaranteed.

[ chuckling]: I'm sure it is, Ick.

You see here's the thing, us fish are cold-blooded,

and if we're too warm, that's not so good.

So, yup, I like it down in the reeds.

Cool, dark and plenty of it.

Nice talking to you, Snook.

Okay, see you, Ick.

Take it easy... down there!

Okay, my survey is almost done,

so now let's go see how Winslow is doing

with his perfect shady spot.

What the?

Hey...

Huh?

Who moved my flower?

[ groans]

Huh?

Hmm.

[ sighs]

Mm, that's better.

Hmm...

What?

Hey...

Okay, what is going on?

Who moved my flower?

It's not funny, you know!

Whoever you are!

[ groans]

Hmm...

Is anybody here?

Hey, Winslow.

How you doing?

I like your sunflower.

Uh...

Who were you talking to?

No one.

Hey, Snook?

Did you move my sunflower?

Uh, well, no, Winslow.

I was just coming up

to see what your great shady spot was.

Well, it's underneath this beautiful sunflower.

But someone keeps moving it.

Why would anyone do that?

[ gasps]

It's Smooch.

She's always playing tricks on me.

And she wanted to join me in my shady spot, remember?

Smooch?

Where are you?

Hey, I remember she said that.

But I didn't see her here when I arrived.

No?

Hmm.

Well, then, maybe it's Wartz.

Didn't he want to join me, too?

Didn't see him, either.

Winslow, did you hear anything when the sunflower got moved?

That's what's so strange, Snook.

I didn't hear a thing.

Well, then there has to be another explanation Winslow.

Every time I close my eyes,

my sunflower moves.

Well, I think maybe...

[ gasps]

I know!

Bob's ants!

Those ants are pretty tricky.

I think that's why Bob is always so stressed out.

Hmm...

So lets see, somehow the sunflower is moving,

but there's nobody there.

Yeah.

And what's really weird is that

the pot the sunflower is in didn't move at all!

Just the flower.

I mean, it's a plant.

It can't move by itself, can it?

Well...

Oh, let's go ask Madge.

Mm-hmm.

Come on, then.

Hello, Snook, Winslow.

Oh, what an absolutely glorious day!

That hot sun feels so good on my shell.

[ sadly]: Hi, Madge.

Hey, Madge.

So you like to be out in the sun when it's hot?

That's good for my survey.

Oh, yes.

I quite enjoy it.

How are you today, Winslow?

Well, there's someone, or something, moving my sunflower.

Really?

Very interesting.

But, um...

maybe your sunflower is moving itself?

What?

That's too weird.

I mean, if flowers could move,

they would swing on vines and all sorts of things, right?

[ chuckling]: That'd be cool--

a vine swinging flower.

Well, sunflowers are pretty cool, too.

They love the sun on their face so much,

that they follow it as it moves across the sky.

Wow!

I never would have guessed.

So, it's not the best flower to use for shade--

unless you want to keep moving around a lot.

Good point, Winslow.

The sun is amazing.

I mean, you know, in that scientific way.

Sunlight helps everything grow.

If the sun wasn't up there to warm the earth,

not even the World Tree would be here.

[ gasps]

Oh, no!

The sun's going away.

It's just the sun going down, Winslow.

[ chuckling]: Oh, right.

Sunset.

I almost forgot.

[ gasps]: Hey, Snook?

Yeah, Winslow?

I was thinking,

maybe we should go get Smooch and Wartz

and show them the cool way the sunflower moves?

Don't worry, Winslow,

the sun will be out again tomorrow,

and that sunflower

will be on the move again.

We can show them then.

Yeah, you're right, Snook.

[ sighs]

You know, I think sunflowers might move

even faster than sloths.

Oh, hey!

There are so many cool animals in the big, big world,

and so many great facts to know about them.

One way to find out more is to read.

Go to your local library

and get a book about your favorite animal.

SNOOK: Smooch and Winslow are

the coolest marmoset monkeys I've ever met.

Hey, did you know that baby marmosets

are often cared for by their older brothers and sisters?

Yup, marmoset families really take care of each other.

Hmm, I wonder if that's why

Smooch and Winslow get along so well.

Hey, what do you think?

Would you like to take care of a baby marmoset?

Anteaters are very cool animals.

Do you remember which one of my friends is an anteater?

That's right, it's Bob.

Did you know that anteaters mouths are extremely small?

Yeah, you could barely fit a pencil in an anteater's mouth.

Not that an anteater would want a pencil in his mouth.

Luckily, their tongues are long-- really long--

so they can stick them way out of their mouths

to collect food.

I bet those long tongues sure would be good

for lollipop licking.

What do you think?
