And then there's no water for anyone else!

Where's all the water?

I was going to take a bath!

I can't have a bath without water!

Oh. You do need water for a bath.

And I need water for my garden!

We have no more water.

What can we do?

[ ♪♪♪ ]

Cue the sparkles, cue the music.

Princess presto to the rescue!

With my magic spelling wand,

We could spell "rain"

And then rain would appear and then it would rain

And rain is water which we need for gardens to grow

And bath times and... Ahem, okay,

Let's just spell "rain".

Will you spell "rain" with me?

Splendid!

Ready? Wands up!

Spell with me!

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

Children: "r"!

We need the letter "r"!

Write a lowercase "r" with me!

Really nice "r"! [ Giggle ]

Now, the next two letters

Make the sound "eh" in "rain".

It's the letters "a" and "i"!

Let's write a lowercase "a".

"A"!

Now let's write a lowercase "i".

Nice.

Now, what letter makes the sound "n-n-n"?

Children: "n"!

"N"!

Write a lowercase "n" with me!

"N"!

Presto!

Wow! [ Gasp ]

Spectacular spelling! [ Giggle ]

We made it rain by spelling the word "rain"!

Let's take a bow.

On with the story!

You see super letters?

What letters did you find?

Children: "t"! "E"! "R"!

Oh, "t", "e", and "r"?

Let's add them to our super duper...

And then we'll get our super story answer!

Hooray!

Now there's water and I can take a bath!

And I can water my garden!

Whee-hee-hee! More water.

More puddles. More fun!

Ribbit.

Super readers: [ gasps ]

Wallaby & kangaroo: tiddalick! No!

He's doing it again!

He's jumping and wasting all the water!

Let's zap the words "jumps in"

From this sentence.

Why writer... Write!

All right super readers,
