- See if you can fly
as high as me, nick.

- You see if you can fly
as fast as me, sally.

- Zoom. Zoom.

Whoosh!
- Whoo-hoo!

- It's fun being birds,

And the best thing is,
we can fly.

- You know, I have a bird friend
who can't fly at all.

- It's the cat!

- The cat in the hat.

- Why can't your bird
friend fly?

- My friend os is an ostrich.

Ostriches can't fly,
but os doesn't mind.

He's good at so many
other things.

- Really? Like what?

- Why don't I let os
show you himself?

We can even play one
of my favorite games:

Guess what the ostrich
does best.

- Yay!
- Cool.

- To play, we must go
to savanna saloo.

Your mother will not mind
at all if you do.

[Laughter]

- Mom, can we go
to savanna saloo

To try to guess
what an ostrich does best?

- [Laughs]
oh.

Savanna saloo to guess
what an ostrich does best?

Sure.
I'd like to know too.

- Thanks, mom.

Both: we can go!
We can go!

- I know! I know!

To the thinga-ma-jigger.

- Bet you can't guess
what I'm best at.

- Swimming.
- Blowing bubbles under water?

- Ahem, I'm the world fish
yoyo champion.

Up, down, all around.
Whoo-hoo!

- Why, fish,
you are just full of surprises.

[Laughter]

Buckle up.

- Wow.

Do you see your friend?

- Let's take a closer look.

Going down.

Both: whoo-hoo!

- Cat, what kind
of a tree is that?

- That's no tree.

That's os the ostrich.

- Huh?

Cat, how nice to see you.

- Os, I'd like you to meet
my friends nick and sally.

- Welcome, nick.
Welcome, sally.

- Whoa, you're the biggest bird
I've ever seen, os.

- Thanks.

- Nick and sally would like
to try playing

Guess what the ostrich
does best.

- Ooh, sounds like fun.

- I know.

Is being big
what an ostrich does best?

- Good guess, sally.

Let's see how big
an ostrich really is.

- How can we do that?

- When you need to find out
who is bigger than who,

You need to get help
from thing one and thing two.

[Whistles]

Both: hello!

[Chittering]

- Boing, boing.

Both: ta-da!

- I see.

These are some other big birds,
like that turkey.

Os is definitely bigger
than a turkey.

- And a blue heron.

- And a flamingo.

- You are the biggest bird, os.

- Why, thank you.

I am, aren't i?

Both: ahh!
Bye-bye!

[Laughter]

- Ostriches are big, but that's
not what they do best.

Nick, it's your turn to guess.

- Hmm.

Well,
os has really long legs.

I think he must be
a fast runner.

Is running
what ostriches do best?

- Great answer, nick.

What do you say, os?
Do you like to run?

- Just watch me.

[Laughs]

- Wow,
os is really fast.

- I wish I could run that fast.

- What you need
are ostrich extendo-stilts.

I have some...
Hmm, somewhere.

[Laughter]

Aha!

Both: awesome.

Whee! Yahoo!

[Laughter]

- Watch me, nick.

Zoom! Zoom!

- [Laughs]

- Whoa,
these are super cool.

- Running fast is fun,
but I'm getting a little tired.

- Really? I could run like this
for a long, long time.

- Ostriches are great runners,
nick,

But that's not
what they do best.

Both: oh.

- [Laughs]

- Maybe os' long legs
are good for something else,

Like dancing.

- Os, by any chance,
do you dance?

- As a matter of fact, I do.

[Scatting]

- You are a good dancer, os.
- Whoo-hoo!

- When os gets his toes tapping,
it's hard not to join in.

Whoo-hoo!

♪ Flap your wings,
bob up and down ♪

♪ Shake your tail,
turn around ♪

- Yay!
- Yeah!

- That's it, cat.
Try it again.

All: ♪ flap your wings,
bob up and down ♪

♪ Shake your tail,
and turn around ♪

- Yee-haw!

- All right,
one more time.

All: ♪ flap your wings,
bob up and down ♪

♪ Shake your tail,
and turn around ♪

[Laughter]

- So is dancing
what ostriches do best, cat?

- I'm sorry, sally.

Although they are great dancers,

Dancing is not what ostriches
do best.

Both: oh?

- Let me think.

I really like your feathers, os.

Oh, is growing feathers
what ostriches do best?

- No,
but they are beautiful.

- Oh, thanks.

- Os has really big eyes.

Is seeing
what ostriches do best?

- They do help me
to see very far.

I can see that zebra.

- Is there a zebra?

- What zebra?

- I don't see a zebra.

- It's right over there.

- Hmm, try these.

If os says there's a zebra--

- [Gasps]
there's a zebra!

- My turn.

Wow!

Ostriches really do see far.

- They sure do,
but there's still something

Ostriches do even better.

- Os, can you come here, please?

- Oh, excuse me.
Got to go.

- Who's calling?

- I think that's olivia,
os' wife.

I wondered where she was.

Let's go meet her.

Olivia, there you are.

- Hello, everyone.

Welcome to our nest.

- How come your nest
isn't in a tree?

- Remember, os
and olivia ostrich can't fly.

- [Laughs]

And that makes it hard
to build a nest in a tree.

[Laughter]

- I guess it would.

- They just scratch away
some dirt

So their eggs don't roll away.

- Those are the biggest eggs
I've ever seen.

- Maybe that's what ostriches
do best, lay big eggs.

- Aren't they
wonderful big eggs?

But that's still not
what they do best.

[Eggs rattling]

- Wow, these big eggs
even make funny noises.

- Eggs don't make sounds...

- Unless they're hatching.

- Oh, os, look.

- Aww. Aww.

- Wow.

I've never seen
a baby ostrich before.

[Ostriches chirping]

Both: aww.

- Welcome to the world,
little ones.

- Aren't they cute?

- What about the other eggs?

- They'll wait another day
or two.

The eggs don't all hatch
at once.

- If they did, we couldn't
give them all the care

And attention they need.

[Thunder booming]

- What was that, a lion?

- This is why I need
my big eyes,

To look out for danger
for the chicks.

[Thunder booming]

Oh, it's thunder.

Rain's coming.

Watch out, little guys.

- We'll keep you dry.

- Good thinking.

Both: thanks, cat.

- Os and olivia
are a great mom and dad.

I wonder...

- Maybe that's
what ostriches do best.

- It is.

Aren't they wonderful?

Yes, being a great mom and dad
is what ostriches do best.

- Well, I guess it might be.

- It's certainly
our favorite thing to do.

- Ostriches are awesome.

They're tall,
and they're fast.

Their big eyes see far,
and their dancing's a blast.

They have fine, fluffy feathers
and eggs heavy like bricks,

But they're best at looking
after their family of chicks.

- I can't wait to tell my mom
all about ostriches.

- Me too!
- To the thinga-ma-jigger.

Bye, os.

Bye, olivia.

Bye-bye, chickies.

- Good-bye.
- Thank you.

- Bye-bye.
- Come back soon.

- Really?
- Sure.

- Mom.

- Hey, mom.

- Oh, thank you.

- What's the hug for?

- For being like ostriches.

- How are we like ostriches?

- Is it because we can't fly?

- Or because we're very tall?

[Laughter]

- No, and it's not
because you're great dancers

Or fast runners.

- You're like ostriches
because...

Both: you're both great moms.

- Oh, thank you.

- Thanks.

- Ahh,
another happy ending.

Ahh.

- Hi, everybody.

I have a question
about polar bears.

When polar bears want to go
down snowy hills quickly,

How do they do it?

You'll never guess.

Did I hear some of you say they
slide down on their tummies?

How did you know that?

You got it this time,
but next time,

I'll stump you for sure.

Oh, no, not this way!

No!

Snow, brr.

Both: time to take a picture
with our snapperama cameras.

- I'll take the picture.

- And I'll guess what it is.

Wow,
it looks like green straws.

Hmm,
it looks like a leaf.

- You're right, nick.

It's a maple leaf.

- But what are all those lines?

- Those are called veins.

Some of them carry food
and water to the leaf

So it grows big and healthy.

- Neat, sally.

[Laughter]

[Pot clanging]

- Check out this bing sound,
nick.

- Nice one, sally.

Now listen to this bang.

[Laughter]

- Now all we need is a boom.

- So we can go bing, bang, boom.

Hmm,
we need something else.

- We need a helping hand.

- My hands aren't busy
right now.

Will they do?

[Laughter]

- It's the cat.

- The cat in the hat.

We need something
that goes boom.

- [Laughs]
I happen to know

That drums are best
for making boom-booming sounds.

- Too bad
there aren't any around.

- Except the drums in our ears.

- Huh?
- We have drums?

- In our ears?

- Sure you do.

Eardrums may not be the kind
of drums you're talking about,

But it's true.

- Are they the kind
that go boom?

- Well, um,
interesting question.

You know, I don't know,

But my good friend, dr. Giggles,
knows all about ears.

Let's go ask him.

Your mother will not mind
at all if you do.

- [Laughs]

- Mom! Mom!

Can we go with
the cat in the hat

To find out if eardrums go boom?

- Find out if eardrums go boom?

I can't wait to hear
all about it.

[Laughter]

- Thank you.

Both: we can go!
We can go!

- I know! I know!

To the thinga-ma-jigger.

- Fish don't have
sticky-outy ears,

But we're really good listeners.

- Then listen to this.

[Together] ♪ are you ready?
Yes we are ♪

♪ Are you steady?
Yes we are ♪

- ♪ Are you sure
you're ready to explore? ♪

Both: ♪ yes we are ♪

Then buckle up.

[Horn honks]

- Welcome to dr. Giggles' house.

- I hope the doctor's in.

- There's only one way
to find out.

- What? Huh?

[Giggles]
who's there?

- The cat.

- The cat who?

- The cat in the hat.

- [Giggles]

- Dr. Giggles.

Both: hello.

- Hello to you too.

Now, how may I help you today?

- We have a question.

- Go on.

I'm all ears.

- Do we really have drums
in our ears?

- Oh-ho!

Now, let me see, but remember,

You must never stick things
in your ears.

We doctors use special equipment
to look deep inside.

I can see quite clear.

You most certainly do
have a drum in your ear.

- What does it look like?

- Why don't we go see
for ourselves?

- You mean go inside
someone's ear?

- Not someone, something.

When you want to check out
what eardrums can do,

Who better to call
than thing one and thing two?

[Whistles]

Both: hello.

- Can you lend us an ear?

- Whoo-hoo!
- Yeah!

- Ears are the perfect shape
for collecting sounds.

- Let's play a game
to help choose

Which one of these ears
we should use.

Name this sound.

- Moo.

- Hmm.

- Moo.

A cow.

[Laughs] that's right.
You win.

[Both chittering]

- Hmm,
but how are we going to fit?

- There's only one way
to find out.

To the thinga-ma-jigger.

[Laughter]

To safely explore
inside thing one's ear,

We need to shrink down
real small.

Press the shrinkamadoodle,
sally.

- [Laughs]

And we'll need to use
the hover-abover.

- [Laughs]

- Cool!

- [Giggles]

[Giggling]

Ear we go.

[Laughter]

Both: wow.

- Hello.

- Hi, dr. Giggles.
We see you.

- [Giggling]

And I can see you too
on my scanner-majammer.

You're right here in the tube
that goes from thing one's ear

To inside his head.

- It's awfully dark in here.

I think we need lights
to see where we're going.

- Look out!

All: oh!

- Eww, we've landed
in some sticky stuff.

- That's earwax.

It stops dust and dirt
from getting into your ears.

- It really works.

- Let's not "stick" around.

All: hooray!

- Every sound you hear
goes down this tube,

Until it hits--

- A big, bouncy wall?

- [Giggles]
you found it.

That's the eardrum.

- It's not like any drum
I've seen before.

- And it didn't go boom.

- That's because the eardrum's
not for making sounds.

[Giggles]
it's for catching them.

- From the loudest tartoota
to the quietest jengjooga

Make some noise,
and you'll see.

[Tartoota tooting]

- [Gasps ]
that sound made it move.

Let me try.

[Jenjooga jingling]

- How does it do that?

- Sounds are invisible.

You can't see them at all

Without my special
sound-seer spray.

[Laughs]

- Hit it.

[Tartoota tooting]

- Wow, sound is like a wave
in the air,

And when it hits the eardrum,
it makes it jiggle.

- That jiggling must be
how we hear.

[Jenjooga jingling]

- [Laughs]

- Cool.
- But each sound is different.

How do we tell one sound
from another sound?

- That takes place
deeper inside,

When the eardrum passes it on.

[Giggling]

- Oh, boy,
I want to go see...

- And hear more.

- Ooh, that eardrum's
pulled pretty tight.

This is as far as you can go.

- Then pull
the whizzer-ma-fizzer.

Both: yay!

- [Laughs]

Both: whoa.

- Wow.

Where are we now?

- [Giggling]
there you are

On the other side
of the eardrum.

It's called the middle ear.

- Hey, sally, check out
those big, funny bones.

- Those bones are
the tiniest bones in our bodies.

They only look big
because you're so small.

- What do they do?

- I will show you.

Thing two,
will you please sing?

- Uh-huh, uh-huh.

♪ La, la, la ♪

- Look.
The eardrum caught that sound.

- And it's passing it on.

- Look at those bones shake,
rattle, and roll.

[Laughs]

- That shaking is called
vibration.

The eardrum turns sounds
into vibrations

And passes them on to the bones
in the middle ear.

[Giggling]

- And that's how we hear.

- Uh-uh,
not so fast.

- The cat's right.
Those bones aren't done yet.

- Yes, I see.

They're shaking
that spiraly wiraly thing

Passing on the sound again.

- Let's follow
those good vibrations.

- I suggest you close the top
before you do.

- Good idea.

Pull the whizzer-ma-fizzer.

Both:
yay!

- [Laughs]

Both: whoo-hoo!

All: whoo-hoo!

- [Giggling]
this is my kind of place.

[Giggling]

- You're in the inner ear now.

- It's where sounds
really get inside your head.

- It's real hairy.

- Look, the passed on vibrations
are making the hairs move.

- [Giggling]

They wiggle and jiggle
to every sound.

- And that's how we hear sounds?

- It is.

That wiggling and jiggling
sends signals to our brains,

Which is the last step
in hearing sounds.

[Together]
pass it on.

- Press the whizzer-ma-fizzer.

- [Laughs]

That was awesome.

- Time to get big again.

- Press the big-a-ma-boodle.

- [Laughs]

- Thanks for showing us
the eardrum, dr. Giggles.

- Any time.
[Giggling]

- And thanks,
thing one and thing two.

Both: da, da, da.
Bye-bye!

Whoo. Rah.

- Following those good
vibrations has given me an idea

For a new game back home.

- Good-bye, dr. Giggles.
- See ya!

- Good-bye!

- Good-bye!
Come back anytime.

[Giggling]

- There's a drum in our ear
that does not make a sound.

Instead, it catches every noise
that's around.

Then it passes it on,
which allows us to hear,

And I think that's worth
a very big cheer.

All: yay!

- Ready?

[Pot clanging]

Pass it on.
[Laughs]

- [Laughs]

[Pot clanging]

- Pass it on.
- [Laughs]

[Glass clanging]

- Pass it on.

[Drum booming]

- Wow, that is loud.

- Thank your eardrum.

[Laughter]

Isn't this fun?

- Welcome to hat chat.

Today we're reporting to you
live from...

Both: the moon.

- We're bouncing over to visit
with astronaut audrey.

She lives here.

- Oh, no, nick,
I couldn't live on the moon.

Astronauts like me only
travel here to explore.

- But why can't you live here?

- Well, that's because the moon
doesn't have

All the important things
we need to live.

- Wow,
there's nothing here.

- Just a lot of dirt.

- That's right.

The moon's surface
is mostly made of crushed rock.

Plants need air, water,
and soil,

And there's not enough here
for them to grow.

In fact, there's not even
any air for us to breathe.

- Huh?
- Don't worry, nick.

I brought everything I need
from home,

Including food and enough air
for me to breathe.

- Phew.

- Nick and sally signing off
from the moon.

- Where do you live,
asks this cat in the hat,

On the top of a hill,
or on ground that is flat?

Wherever you are,
there is rock down below,

Below earth, below water,
below sand, below snow.

Long, long ago,
some rocks reached to the sky

And became giant mountains,
where eagles fly high.

Then rivers and ice
would wear some rocks away,

Until valleys were formed
that we still see today.

And when rocks wear away
from millions of years,

An amazing
and very large canyon appears.

Some underground rivers
carve caves deep and wide,

Where bats live in colonies
deep down inside.

[Bats squealing]

So you see how the rocks
form the shape of our land,

Our beautiful world
that this cat thinks is grand.

black-and-white bird.

It's a penguin, and he's
carrying a stone somewhere.

- That's right, nick.

Adelie penguins make their nest
out of stones.

- That doesn't sound
very comfortable.

Great photo, sally.
