Phantom of the Trumpet.

Que chevere!

You sound great, Kenji!

Thanks. My cousin gave me

this trumpet when I was two

and boom!

I've been playing it ever since.

That's a long time.

No wonder you're so good!

Your music is so pretty and loud,

in a good way.

It reminds me of when I saw

my Papi play in a concert.

Ooh!

What's a concert?

It's when musicians

play their music for people

at a theater or a park.

I got to see Papi do that once.

Papi had a show ♪

At a nightclub in the city ♪

Mami let me stay up late ♪

They had his poster on the wall ♪

And the twinkle lights so pretty ♪

Then Papi played ♪

We sat beside the stage ♪

And it was so amazing ♪

When Papi played ♪

When Papi played ♪

When Papi played ♪

Boom! Sounds like a blast!

I want to a concert!

Now, please.

You know, I think I might

kind of want to be in a concert.

-You would?

-Yeah.

Your dad's concert sounds

like it was pretty cool.

It really was.

So, do you think

you could help me put one on?

We'd love to help, Kenji.

You can play for everyone,

right here!

Yes!

I've wanted to go to a concert

ever since Uh

Berti told us what a concert is.

I can't wait!

We can make posters

to tell everyone about your show!

And t-shirts.

It'll be muy super great!

So should I help?

That's okay.

We can set it all up.

Why don't you go practice?

I play for my moms every night.

So this will be boom! Zippity zap.

But, yeah, I'll practice.

Who wants to see my poster

for Kenji's concert?

You should see mine!

Ta-da!

Wow! Your poster is great!

There's no way people won't know

about Kenji's show now.

Almost done with t-shirts.

You made real t-shirts for the concert?

You're amazing!

-Well

-No. Womp womp.

We made pictures of t-shirts.

Yay!

We're putting on a show ♪

Whoa-oh-oh ♪

We're putting on a concert ♪

Whoa-oh-oh ♪

You can even wear them.

Wapa! Great!

What else do we need?

At my dad's concert,

they had a singer go on

before Papi to get the crowd excited.

I could do a dino show.

That's perfect. Thanks, Tej.

We're putting on a show ♪

Whoa-oh-oh ♪

We're putting on a concert ♪

Whoa-oh-oh ♪

Berti, look! We made tickets.

Everyone needs a ticket

to get into the show.

Great idea.

But, uh, why so many tickets?

For all the first-graders we invited.

Oh, all the first-graders?

This concert's getting

a lot bigger than we thought.

I better let Kenji know

so he isn't surprised.

-Uh, Kenji?

-Yo.

So I'm a little worried

your concert's getting too big.

There'll be t-shirts, tickets,

lots of people coming.

Maybe too many?

I mean, first-graders are invited.

Don't worry. It'll be fine.

As long as I can play my trumpet,

boom! I'm all good.

Okay, we'll keep setting up then.

All right, everyone,

Kenji's concert is starting soon.

Let's get everything in place.

We're putting on a show ♪

Whoa-oh-oh ♪

We're putting on a concert ♪

Whoa-oh-oh ♪

We're gonna have tickets, t-shirts ♪

Take your seats ♪

We're getting set ♪

To hear that trumpet blow ♪

Putting on a show ♪

Everything looks great, Berti.

I'll go get Kenji.

-Kenji, ready for the show?

-Sure.

Okay, here we are.

So, what do you think?

Uh, it looks great.

But just wondering.

How big is this show?

Oh, it got a little super very big?

Remember?

I told you the first-graders

were coming.

Yeah, I heard you,

but I didn't really worry about it.

What's he doing?

Tej's going to do a dinosaur show

before you go on.

To get everyone ready for you,

the big star!

Or, not the star, just the you!

Uh, great.

Kenji, why don't

I tell the first-graders

you'll play for them another day?

I don't want you to be nervous.

Nah, I'm cool.

Are you sure? It's really okay

No, I'm good.

It's gonna be, zippity zap, cool.

Hey, we should start the show.

Okay. Ready?

Um, ready.

Hey, everybody,

welcome to Kenji's first concert!

To start things off,

here's Tej and his dinos!

Roar!

-Roar, roar, roar?

-Roar, roar, roar, roar, roar!

How are you feeling?

I'm good.

My tummy, not so much.

You'll do great. I know it!

You ready, champ?

It's trumpet time!

Hello, my kidoodle-noodles!

Ms. Moreno is here?

Is it hot out here?

Why is it so hot?

-Roar, roar, roar!

-Roar, roar!

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Yeah!

Thanks, Tej. So great.

Is everyone ready for Kenji?

Yeah!

Kenji! Kenji! Kenji! Kenji!

Oh, wow.

Need more water? Be right back!

And now, for the trumpet performance

you've all been waiting for

The most famous trumpet player

in kindergarten

Kenji!

Where is he?

I thought we'd

hear the trumpets?

What's going on?

Uh, excuse me a sec.

Where did Kenji go?

Uh, I don't know.

He was here.

I turned away then, poof, gone!

He can't, poof, right now.

We need to find him. Fast!

Kenji not found.

I repeat, Kenji not found.

What's going on?

I thought we were supposed

to go to the concert?

Uh, Kenji will be out in a few minutes.

Hopefully.

Tej, can you do

some more dinosaur stuff?

Really?

Yup! More Dino! Now. Thanks.

Roar!

Roar, roar, roar, roar, roar!

There you are.

Are you okay?

Me? Yeah. Zippity zap

I kind of can't do the concert

at all.

I'm too nervous to play

in front of everyone.

Scared. Kinda.

I know you and our friends

worked really hard

to put on this concert,

but I can't do it.

I'm so sorry, Kenji.

You're always so calm.

But, you know,

it's okay to be nervous.

My dad feels the same way

before concerts, too.

He does? What does he do?

Does he run away and hide, too?

No.

He takes big breaths.

He says that makes

the oogly feelings go away.

He also does some dance moves.

That helps?

I don't know why, but it does.

How do you feel?

Still nervous.

Well, what do you usually do

if you're not feeling your best?

I played my trumpet. Alone.

Just me and the music.

It always makes me feel better.

Okay, so try that.

I feel so much cooler.

Beautiful music, Kenji.

Whoa!

Uh, I can tell them you're not ready.

No, no, it's okay.

I feel better now.

Let's do this.

Hey, thanks for helping me

not feel nervous, Berti.

- Don't worry. It's

- Boom! Cool!

Everyone!

I'm excited to introduce, again

Kenji and his trumpet!

Kenji!

Food, Glorious Food Fair.

Puerto Rico,

the Philippines,

Ireland.

Just look at all these flags

from the countries your families

come from.

They are fantastic.

They're the perfect decorations

for a special kindergarten event

we're having tomorrow.

We are having a super fun

Family Food Fair!

I can't wait!

This is gonna be good.

Yes, yes, yes!

What is that?

A Family Food Fair is a chance

for everyone to share

a favorite family dish with the class.

It can be something

you and your family eat

on holidays, birthdays,

or even just for Tuesday dinner!

Ooh, there's so many yummy foods

that my family makes.

My favorite stew, sancocho,

my Mami's pasteles

Oh, how can I pick just one?

I love talking 'bout

the food my family makes ♪

I'm getting hungry ♪

Mama puts a little love

in every muffin she bakes ♪

That sounds yummy ♪

I'm so excited ♪

You've gotta try it ♪

Can't wait to share it with you ♪

My favorite food ♪

I could eat it every day of my life ♪

And I bet you would, too ♪

It makes everybody happy ♪

That's why it's my favorite food ♪

I'm bringing latkes

with lotsa applesauce ♪

I'm bringing halo halo ♪

I got tater tots ♪

Apple crumble chewies ♪

Could I have one now, please ♪

Noodly-noodle soup ♪

My favorite food ♪

I could eat it every day of my life ♪

And I bet you would, too ♪

It makes everybody happy ♪

That's why it's my favorite food ♪

I know what to bring ♪

How 'bout arroz con gandules ♪

Rice with pigeon peas ♪

Who's with me? ♪

Arroz con gandules?

What's everyone looking at?

Your favorite food

has green pigeon peas in it?

I thought only grownups

liked food with green stuff.

Why the pigeon give away his peas?

The pigeon peas are beans,

and they aren't that green,

but the olives and sofrito are.

Sofrito?

Sofrito. You cook it

with the dish for flavor.

It's got cilantro, green peppers.

So, more green?

Um, yeah.

Don't worry, Berti.

I think your dish sounds interesting.

Thanks, Abigail.

Interesting because I thought

your favorite food

would be something fun,

like cookies or brownies,

not something with,

you know, vegetables.

Vegetables,

vegetables, vegetables

- Vegetables?

- Did you say vegetables?

-Vegetables?

-Did she say vegetables?

I promise,

arroz con gandules is really yummy.

Okay, my learners,

we have more to prepare

for our food fair!

Yay!

Hey, Albie.

Oh, I'm just worried

that arroz con gandules

won't be a showstopper at the food fair.

I know you like vegetables.

They taste so good,

and pigeon peas taste so so good, too!

Yeah, but I really wanna bring in a dish

that everyone will want to eat.

Hmm.

Okay, class.

Now we'll draw pictures of the foods

you're bringing in

to the Family Food Fair

and put them together

in a magnificent menu!

- Wow! Fun!

- I can't wait!

- Cool!

- This is so great!

I'm using purple for all the raisins

my mom puts in her soda bread.

This is a can of sweet milk

you

glug, glug, glug,

pour on the halo halo.

That sounds great!

And this is the teeny tiny picture

of arroz con gandules I'll draw

so no one sees how green it is.

Everyone! When you're done,

come give your drawing to me.

Then I can put them in our menu,

so everyone can see

all the foods that will be at the fair.

My peach cobbler, definitely goes in

the "Delicious Dessert" section.

Latkes, coming at ya!

Ooh! I know just the spot for them,

in "Awesome Snacks."

Ready to zip over there

with your drawing?

Oh, um, I guess.

Here you go.

It's a little hard to see.

Oh, uh, is it?

I can see you colored it, though.

I'll just put your dish

Hmm. Let's see.

Not in "Delicious Desserts."

Not in "Super Soups."

Oh, here! "Food with Green Stuff."

Yay!

How's the menu coming along?

Great!

Mine's the only green dish,

but it's really good.

Oh, I'm sure it is, Berti.

Ms. Moreno!

Coming.

Berti, what's wrong?

I don't think I should bring

arroz con gandules

to the food fair.

It's so green.

I'm afraid no one will eat it.

What? Come on!

Who cares what everybody else thinks?

It's your favorite family food, right?

Yes, very favorite.

But if Berti

doesn't wanna bring that in,

there might be something else,

like crackers?

They are less green,

but they're not special to my family.

Maybe there's something else.

What can I make? ♪

What would they like? ♪

Blueberry soup ♪

Pineapple pizza ♪

Something so great ♪

Something so right ♪

After one bite ♪

Everyone needs another plate

Another bowl ♪

Of peanut butter guacamole ♪

A strawberry sandwich ♪

Hmm, that's not bad ♪

Still not as good

as the dish that you had ♪

I think you should bring

the thing you love most ♪

Ooh, like bananas on cinnamon toast ♪

I know what I like ♪

But what should I make? ♪

Wait, I know! ♪

Arroz con gandules ♪

Cake! ♪

That's it!

I'll make my arroz look like cake.

That way everyone will wanna eat it.

I still don't think this is

a great idea.

Don't worry, Rose.

This will be even better.

No green showing.

Nothing vegetable-y.

Hey, Abigail.

I'm bringing a different dish

to the fair.

It's called Cake!

So you can put it under

Delicious Desserts.

-Wepa!

-Ooh!

Looks so good!

-Mami!

-Mi amorcito!

How was your day, my love?

Great! I get to bring my favorite food

into school tomorrow

for the Family Food Fair!

Oh, I know what you're bringing.

Arroz con gandules!

And I'm gonna make it look like a cake.

Que, que? A what?

A cake! I'm gonna shape the rice

into a big cake.

But why?

That's not how we have it at home.

So my friends won't see

all the healthy veggie stuff inside

and then they'll wanna eat it.

But you've always liked

arroz con gandules the way it is.

Maybe you should give your friends

a chance to like it that way, too.

Mami, I spent a lot of time

pretending to be a chef,

and I know for sure that making a dish

with vegetables and green stuff

will look way yummier as a cake!

I don't know

Maybe we can add frosting, too.

Careful. Careful.

Ten cuidado.

I've got it, Mami.

Ay mi amorcito,

I still think your friends

would like your dish the way it

Don't worry, they'll love this cake!

Wow! Wow, wow!

Gotta say your cake looks awesome!

Thanks.

- Cake!

- Cool.

-Whoa!

-Is that a banana cake?

Nope. Sweet plantains!

Your cake looks so good.

Oh, well, it is so good!

We make this, uh, cake,

all the time at home.

Ooh, that looks delicious!

Does it have green stuff in it?

-Oh, green stuff.

-Green stuff?

Um, did I mention

it has yummy plantains?

Let me cut you a rice.

I mean a slice!

Because this is exactly how we make

my favorite family dish

in all the world,

you know, because it's cake!

Yummy cake!

Uh, I

I can't!

I can't give you any cake.

Huh? Why not?

Because

Because it's not really cake at all!

What?

It's my arroz con gandules,

my favorite dish in all the world,

and I love it just the way it is,

even if it's full of green stuff!

I don't get it, Berti.

Why did you make

a rice and pigeon pea cake?

Because I didn't think

anyone would eat

my arroz con gandules

if they saw the green stuff.

But it's your favorite food.

I really wanted to try it.

Because I Wait.

You did?

- Yeah.

- I wanted to try it, too.

But you were asking

so many questions about it.

We didn't mean to make you feel

like we didn't like your food.

I just never heard

of pigeon peas before.

They sound good.

They're not just good.

Nom, nom, nom.

-They're delicious!

-Really?

Let's try it!

- I want some!

- Smells so good.

Arroz con gandules is served!

- Yum, yum!

- Oh, wow!

-Mmm!

-That's delicious.

This is pretty good.

Can I have seconds?

I'll take thirds!

Who wants to try some strudel next?

Or halo halo?

Me!

Buen provecho! Let's eat!

Yeah!

My favorite food ♪

I almost didn't try it ♪

But not I really like it ♪

Me too ♪

It's good and good for ya ♪

That's why it's my favorite food! ♪

Looks like all our favorite family foods

were showstoppers!
