Huh?

Did someone say

The Cat in the Hat.

Do you like our
pretend thingamajigger?

It's the jiggiest
thingy I ever saw!

We're going on an
incredible journey!

Ooooh goody.
Where to?

We can't make up
our minds.

I want to go
on an adventure!

And I want
to go swimming!

Well let's do both!

We'll take a REAL
incredible journey,

in the REAL
Thinga-ma-jigger!

With a REAL fish!

That'll be me!

N-n-n-no, I mean
another fish... Samantha!

Samantha the Salmon -

she really is incredible!

Yes.

She goes on the most
incredible journey

from the whirly-swirly ocean

all the way up the
Swirly-Whirly river!

Wow! That sounds
like a long way.

Incredibly long!

Can we go too!?

Yes! Your mother will not
mind at all if you do!

Mom!

Can we go on
an incredible journey

up the Swirly Whirly river?

The
Swirly Whirly river? [LAUGHS]

That really
does sound incredible.

Sure!
Have fun!

We can go!
We can go!

I know!
I know!

To the Thingamajigger!

It'll be great to
watch the Salmon run!

Don't you mean swim?

[Laughing] Pfft...Those crazy
salmon have to be different.

They say "run" when
they mean "swim"!

It's time for
some fishy fun.

Welcome to the
Swirly Whirly River!

Hang on to your hats!

Wheeee!

I think we're
about to get wet!

Not if you pull the
Subber-e-blubbler!

[laughs]

[bell rings]

Yahoo!

Uh oh!

[Gasp]
I almost forgot.

Press the Shrinkamadoodle
so we don't

frighten any fishies!

Well you frightened me!

[laughs]



WOW!

Look at all those fish
swimming along with us...

Huh?

Look.

Oh! Why's that big fish
going the other way?

That'll be a salmon.

Crazy salmon - just
have to be different!

Is it Salmon Samantha?

Yes!
That's her.

Woo-hoo,
Samantha!

I'd know that flashing
fishtail anywhere.

Hey!
Come back!

How are we going
to catch her?

The river's pushing
us the other way!

You need to be a strong
swimmer if you want to go

up the river like those
crazy salmon do!

Or you can press the
Flipper-ma-doodle!

[honk]



Yay!



Howdy,
Samantha!

[Gasp]
Why slap my tail,

if it ain't the
Cat in the Hat!

Meet Nick and Sally.

You remember Fish,
of course.

Hi Samantha.

Hi Samantha.

Oh please,
call me Sam.

Gotta go!

Hey?
Wait up!

Where are you going?

To the little pools
where the river starts.

But why?

All the other fish
are going that way.

I need to get there
to lay my eggs!

She's gonna be a mom!

Ahhhhh!
Yikes!

Yee-eee-haw!

[laughs]

You are a
very good swimmer.

I'm a good swimmer too.

So's Sally -
she loves swimming.

[Gasp] Then why don't you
join me on my adventure?

Okay!

Sure!

Your Flippity-Floppity
swim flippers

will help us
keep up with Sam!

Yeehaw!

Get along little fishies.

WHOA!

Yoww!

What was that?

Something tried to catch us!

It's just an
old grizzly bear!

A grizzly bear?

[laughs]
Don't worry!

He won't hurt you.

It's only me he's after.

For fun?

Oh ho ho...
For lunch!

That doesn't sound
like fun to me.

I see you.

But you can't catch me!
[laughs]

COUGH!

Grrrrr!

Good day to you,
sir!

What kind of fish are you?

Can't you tell?

I am a Catfish!

Huh?

Hmmm...
A fish in a hat?

You guys are swell
travel buddies.

We sure have travelled
a long way together.

We have?

Yes siree,
we're nearly there!

You've just been having
too much fun to notice!

I, on the other hand,
notice everything.

[spluttering]
Oh!

[efforts] Why is the water
going faster and faster?

And what's that noise?

Let's take a look.

Waterfall!

Falling water?

Grab a rock!

I guess this is the
end of our journey.

Sam can't get up there.

Never ever.

Yeeee-ha!

Where did she go?

I see her!

Look under the water
She's swimming in circles!

She's building up speed!

There she goes!

YEE-HAW!

Ohhhh!
She didn't make it.

The waterfall's too strong.

Hold on to your hats.

Here she comes again!

Go Sam go!

♪ Go! Go! Sam!
Flick your tail! ♪

♪ Swim your best and
you won't fail! ♪

♪ Swim, swim, Sam!
Jump up high! ♪

♪ Go, go, Sam!
Fly, fly ,fly! ♪

YEEEEEEEEE-HAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Yes!

She made it.

[laughing]

[sigh] We can't
follow her, can we?

Not even with
Flippety-Floppity flippers.

Goodbye Sam!

Hmmm...
Let me see...

[Gasp]
Ohhh!

In need of a boost?

Don't know what to do?

Who better to call than
Thing One and Thing Two!



We need to get up
there right away.



Yeeeee-haw!
Aaah!

Nice try,
guys.

Any more ideas?

Uh-huh!



This is clearly,
impossible.

Uh oh!

Uh oh!

[screaming]

We'll never swim
up that waterfall.

If only we had a
tail like Sam's.

Ahhh!
You're so clever!

We do!

Press the fishamatailer!

[honk]

YEEHAW!

Go team! Go!

♪ Go! Go! Team!
Flick the tail! ♪

♪ Swim our best and
we won't fail! ♪

♪ Swim, swim, team!
Jump up high! ♪

♪ Go, go, go.
Fly, fly ,fly! ♪

YAY!

YAHOO!

That's using your heads...

and your tails!

The river's different here.

Not so swirly and whirly.

That's right!

These are the little pools
where the river starts.

That's where Sam was heading!

Where is she?

Salmon Sam.

Yoo-hoo!
Where are you?

Shhhhhh!
You'll disturb my eggs.

They don't look like the
eggs I have for breakfast.

More like beautiful, tiny jewels.

And one day soon they'll
turn into baby salmon.

Isn't that exciting?

It is for me.

I'm their Mom!

When they grow up,

will they all go
on the same journey as you, Sam?

And come all the
way back here?

You bet!

This is home!

An incredible journey,

Incredibly done,

We've followed the salmon,
To see where they've swum.

And now we can see,
That the reason they go,

Is to lay their new eggs,

In calm waters below.

Awesome!

Nobody does it like a salmon!

It's time for us
to go our home.

I never leave my home.

Thanks Salmon Sam !

Bye Samantha.

YEE-HAW!

Goodbye everyone.

[car noises]
Beep beep!

Honk honk!

Hop in Cat!

We're going on another
incredible journey.

[Gasp] That's the thing
about incredible journeys.

Once you've finished one,

you can't wait
for the next to begin.

[car noises]

Oh isn't this a good time!

[Laugh]



It's Pammy the Panda's
birthday today, Nick.

I know,
Sally.

We have to find
her a present.

Shhh!

Do you think
Pammy heard us?

I don't think so.

Good. Because it
should be a surprise.

What's a surprise?

It's the Cat!

The CAT in the Hat!



Why are we whispering?

Because we're
trying to figure out

what to get Pammy
for her birthday.

IT'S PAMMY'S BIRTHDAY?

SHHHH!

Pammy doesn't know we're
getting her a present.

Oh I See.

Well...

I know a lot about presents...

I have just the thing...

Ta-da!

[giggling]
It's too silly.

Thanks Cat,

but I think we should
get her something else.

Well I do know a real
panda who could tell us.

Who?

Her name is Zhu Zhu.

She lives in the forest
of Bamwamabooboo.

Let's go ask her!

Can we really go to the
forest of Bamwamabooboo?

Your Mother will not
mind at all if you do.

Mom, can we go to the
forest of Bamwamabooboo

to find a birthday present
for Pammy the Panda?

The forest
of Bamwamabooboo?

Okay!

Make sure you find
something she likes.

We can go!
We can go!

I know!
I know!

To the Thing-ma-jigger!

Buckle up!

[honk]



Flick the Jiggermawhizzer!

[laughs]
Whoah!

Wayia!

There's Bamwamabooboo!

Wow!

It looks like a forest of giant grass.

Cool!

Hold on everyone
we're going down.

Here we go again!

Whoa....

Wow, this is the biggest
grass I've ever seen!

I can hug it!

The grass in our yard
never grows this tall!

I'm sure glad I don't
have to mow this lawn.

[laughs]

Yeah,
Bamboo grows fast too!

Bamboo?

Yes. This giant grass
is called Bamboo.

That's what Zhu Zhu called it
last time we came visiting.

Bamboo!

There sure is a lot of
bambooooooooooooooo

in Bamwamabooboo!

[giggle]

How are we
going to find Zhu Zhu

in the middle of
all this bamboo?

Why don't we climb up
and see over the top?

Oh!

It's too difficult
to climb.

How about we use these?

I can see everything from
up here on my bamboo stilts!

Wow.

Bamboo must be really strong

if you can stand on it.

Yes, bamboo is a grass
that's as strong as a tree!

He's just showing off!

Can you see Zhu Zhu
from up there?

No, but
I can see bamboo...

And more bamboo...

Oh!

And more
bamboooooooooooooooooooo!

Ooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaagh!

Aagh......
oooh!

Bamboo is really bendy too.

I knooooooooooooooow!

Help!

CAT!

Are you okay,
Cat?

Oh, I'm fine..
I meant to do that.

If we don't find Zhu Zhu

how are we going to know
what to get Pammy?

Allow me to think.

Luckily, I'm wearing
my thinking hat.

Hmmm.
Interesting.

Can't think of a thing.

Only thing I see
around here is bamboo,

bamboo and more bamboo.

If Zhu Zhu lives here,

I guess she really
likes bamboo.

So if pandas like bamboo,

let's make something
out of bamboo for Pammy!

[Gasp]
You are soooo clever!

But what will you
do with the bamboo?

Let's think.

We know it's
bendy like grass!

And it's strong
like a tree.

And it makes the best
back-scratcher ever.

Ohhh...
Ahh!

That hits the spot!

Hey!

What happened to
my back scratcher?

There it is!

Hi,
cat.

Hey,
Zhu Zhu!

Oh, who's
that with you?

Sally and Nick.

Er...
Hello.

Hi Zhu Zhu.

I'm so excited to
meet a real panda.

I see you borrowed
my back scratcher.

Oh, you know I just
love bamboo, Cat.

I can't help myself.

Zhu Zhu.
We need your help.

You do?

We want to know
what would be

a good present
for Pammy the Panda.

She's our very own panda.

We had an idea to make her
something out of bamboo.

Oh,
that sounds good.

We'll make some things and
then you can choose the best.

Well okay.

I'll try.

There are zillions of things
you can make with bamboo!

Who better to show us than
Thing One and Thing Two!

[WHISTLES]

Hello!



[laughing]

Ta-da!

Ah!

[giggles]

Hey!

[laughs]



A picture frame!

Oooh!

A lamp!

Wow!

A fence.

Huh?

A bicycle!

Ahhhh!

It's amazing the things
you can do with bamboo!

Super-amazing!

Well, Zhu Zhu, which one
would Pammy like the best?

You choose.

Well.
They're all great...

It's the bicycle I knew it!

[Laughs]
No.

The chair?

Oh!
The excitement!

I can't wait to find
out which she'll choose!

The picture frame -
the fence -

the table lamp -
what will it be?

They're all very nice...

Yes?

Pandas do so love bamboo...

You do!
You do!

We know!
We know!

Well?

Ummmm.....

I prefer my bamboo....



like this.

Mmmmmmmmmmmm.

Delicious.

You eat bamboo?

Isn't it
a little tough?

Not when you
have a strong jaw

and good teeth like me.

I eat almost nothing else.

Bamboo really is
your favourite thing!

Delicious, mouth-watering,
crunchy bamboo!

Your most favourite
thing in the whole world?

Nothing beats it.

Then that's what we'll give
Pammy for her birthday.

A bamboo snack!

Yeah!

OW!
Who put that there!

Wow! Did you hear
that cool sound?

[drum sound]

There it is again!



Bamboo can even be musical!

It's a bamboo drum.

That's because
it's hollow inside.

Really?

It is.

Try blowing across
the top Sally.

[flute sound]

Hey!
I played music!



Rockin' Sally!

I feel a musical
number coming on.

One, two,
play that bamboo!



Hit it...



♪ We love bamboo...
- We love bamboo! ♪

Awesome!

Where's Zhu Zhu?

Over there.

Take these for
your friend Pammy.

Are you sure?

I've got plenty to spare.

Thank you,
Zhu Zhu.

You're welcome.

Oh my.

Do you know what time it is?

[Nick and Sally]
No.

Time for a panda
style birthday party!

Bye bye Zhu Zhu.

[Nick and Sally]
Bye!

Bu-bye friends.

I can't wait to give
Pammy her present.

The best panda present ever!

Bamboo is great!

Yes,
bamboo is King!

Bamboo can make
almost anything.

It's tough and it's tall.

It's bendy and sweet.

And for Panda's, bamboo
is the best food to eat!

Can we please drive more
carefully this time?

Whoa!

I guess not.

[laughing]

SURPRISE!

Happy birthday Pammy!

We got you a present!

Hey Pammy smiled.
I saw her!

She did?
Really?

She says, "Thanks
for the present.

I just love.....

BAMBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
