Got to put up... Watch out!

Pigs, what are you building?

We're trying to build a backyard fort.

But it's not working because we keep arguing!

Medium pig!

I can't put up this wall if you're standing there.

You're in my way!

You're in my way, biggest pig!

I need to put up this door!

You're both in my way.

I need to put up this roof!

[ Groan ] hey!

Get out of the way!

No, medium pig!

My wall goes first!

No biggest pig, my door goes first!

My door! Does not!

Move over!

You're both wrong.

My roof goes first!

[ Grunt ] there!

Whoa... Whoa... [ Yelp ]

My roof! My door! My wall!

It's no use! If we keep arguing,

We'll never be able to build our fort!

Never!

This sounds like a super big problem.

Why writer, highlight!

Read with me.

[ Roaring ]

[ Screams ]

We need to stop that ogre

From scaring everyone!

I'll lead the way to the ogre!

No, I will!

I will lead the way!

[ Gasp ] hey!

They keep arguing.

Just like my brothers and I keep arguing!

And that, super readers,

Is why we are in this book.

Momotaro's friends keep arguing

Just like pig and his brothers!

If they keep arguing,

They'll never get to the ogre

Just like we'll never finish our fort.

We need to see what they do about all that arguing.

Let's roll!

[ Squawking/ barking ]

Hello, momotaro, we're the super readers,

And we want to talk to you.

Hi, super readers.

Momotaro, are you called peach boy?

[ Chuckle ] yes! I was born in a peach.

A peach fell from a tree, opened up and out I came!

So that's what momotaro means, "peach boy".

Monkey: ah-ah-hem!

Oh! These are my friends.

I'm monkey!

I'm dog.

Heh-heh, I'm pheasant!

[ Roaring ]

Friends! We need to get to that ogre!

See my map?

The ogre is right there at ogre castle!

Oh, oh!

I want to hold the map!

No-no, I want... I want to hold the map!

I want to hold the map!

[ Ripping ]

Whoa! Friends: uh-oh!

The map is torn!

Now how will we get to the ogre castle?

Alpha pig

To the rescue!

With my amazing alphabet map,

I can help us find the way to the ogre's castle.

First we have to find the letter "h",

Then the "f", and then the "c"

To get to the ogre's castle.

Hmmm... Okay.

Where is the letter "h"?

Children: there!

There's the "h"! On the hill!

Let's go towards the hill!

[ ♪♪ ]

Next we need the letter "f".

Hmmm, where is the letter "f"?

Children: there it is!

There's the "f"!

"F" is for flowers!

Let's follow those flowers!

Come on!

[ ♪♪ ]

Now we need to find the letter "c".

Where is the letter "c"?

Children: there!

There's the "c"! For castle!

Lickety letters!

We followed the alphabet map

And found the ogre's castle!

Let's give ourselves a big thumbs up!

[ Giggle ]

Over the bridge and to the ogre!

Various: I'll lead the way! No, I will, I will!

Ogre: [ roaring ]

All: [ gasping ]

That's the ogre.

Let's roll.

Don't forget to look for super letters!

[ Splashing ]

[ ♪♪ ]

Do you see super letters?

Which letters did you find?

Children: "r"! "R"! "T"! "T"!

Two "r"s and two "t"s?

Our first super letters.

We need to put them in our super duper...

Computer!

Eight more super letters

And then we'll get our super story answer!

Monkey: oh, I'll lead the way!

Dog: oh no, I will! [ Barking ]

Pheasant: i-i... I will lead the way!

[ Mixed arguing ]

Ogre: [ roaring ]

All: whoa-a-a-a!

[ Barking ]

That was your fault, monkey!

You were walking too fast.

No! You were walking too fast!

You were both walking too fast!

[ Mixed shouts ]

Momotaro: monkey, pheasant, dog!

Friends, if you keep arguing,

We'll never get to the ogre.

[ ♪♪ ]

The ogre must be on the other side of this gate!

[ ♪♪ ]

Oh no! It's locked!

Oh, oh! Let me try!

Oh no-no-no, let me!

Let me try! No!

Let go, let go!

[ Mixed shouts ] argh!

Oh-h-h...

Now look what you've done!

All that arguing made the knobs come off!

How will we ever get past this gate?

Cue the sparkles!

Cue the music!

Princess presto to the rescue!

With my magic spelling wand,

I can spell the word "jump"

And we can jump over the gate!

Will you spell "jump" with me?

Splendid! [ Giggle ]

Wands up!

Spell with me! Ready?

What letter makes the sound "juh-juh-juh"?

Children: "j"!

"J"! Write a lowercase "j" with me.

Children: "u"!

"U"!

Let's write a lowercase "u"!

[ Excited laughter ]

Let's write a lowercase "m" together.

"M"!

[ Laughing ]

What letter makes the sound "puh-puh-puh"?

Children: "p"!

J-u-m-p.

Jump!

Uh-oh. I think...

[ Roaring ]

All: the ogre!

[ Roar ] who are you?

What do you want?

M-m-mr. Ogre,

You've been scaring everyone in the village,

And we want you to stop!

Oh yeah?

I won't stop

Because I'm...

I'm so...

Angry!

[ Panicked shouts ]

Help! Put me down!

Ah! We have to save momotaro!

I'll save him!

[ Roaring ] I'll save him.

[ Barking ] [ roar ]

No, I'll save him!

[ Mixed cries ] [ roar ]

Dog & pheasant: I'll save him!

Momotaro: sto-o-o-op!

All of your arguing

Is making the ogre even more angry.

He's roaring even more!

[ Roaring ]

Monkey: but, that's our story.

Dog:

See?

Oh no!

There's nothing we can do to change our story!

Super why to the rescue!

With the power to read,

I can change this story and save the day!

Let's change the word "roar"

In this sentence.

Let's zap it. Z-z-zap!

Why writer, write!

The ogre is roaring because he's so angry.

Which word will help the ogre so he's not angry?

Let's try "laugh"!

Which is the word "laugh"?

It begins with "l".

Children: there!

There's the word "laugh"!

Let's zap it.

Ready, set... Z-z-zap!

[ Bark ] [ chattering ]

Let's read the new sentence.

[ Roar ]

[ ♪♪ ]

[ Gasps ]

We can use this feather to tickle him!

If he laughs he won't be angry anymore!

And he won't roar!

Ogre: [ roar ] great idea!

But it's a big feather.

We'll have to lift it all together.

Okay!

All: one... [ Effort yell ]

Two... [ Straining ]

Three! [ Grunt ]

[ Laughing ]

Tickle, tickle, tickle.

Ogre: [ laughing ]

I can't stop laughing!

[ Laughter ]

Momotaro: whoa!

All: [ gasping ]

You saved me!

Thanks, super why!

Friends: hooray!

Did the word "laugh"

Get the ogre to stop being angry?

Children: yes!

Yes!

Super job, super readers!

We made the ogre stop roaring

And start laughing.

And now, he's not angry anymore.

Ogre? Why were you so angry?

Every time I hear arguing,

It makes me angry, so I roar!

I don't like it when people argue.

It makes me upset!

[ Blowing ]

So when we stopped arguing,

You stopped roaring?

That's right!

Now will you promise to stop roaring?

It scares everybody.

I promise...

If you promise to stop arguing!

Friends: promise!

[ ♪♪ ]

Our last super letters?

Which letters did you find?

Children: "k"! "E"! "O"! "O"!

But... Why?

Red: I know!

Because when momotaro's friends worked together

Instead of arguing,

They were able to make the ogre laugh

Instead of roar.

And then he stopped scaring everyone.

So my question is:

What can my brothers and I do

So we can finish building our fort?

And the answer is...

All: work together!

Yes! I know what to do now.

Thanks, super readers. Come with me!

We'll get a lot more done that way.

I guess we can try it. Okay.
