Let's draw it in our notebook.

Okay, so, a " ".

We draw a line, and another
line, and a line across here.

And we have...

A " ".

So what could tickety's favorite

Hmm... I think we
definitely have to look
for more blue's clues.

Mr. Salt:
apples.

Mrs. Pepper:

Oranges!

No.

Bananas would be excellent.

Hi, mr. Salt
and mrs. Pepper.

Oh, hey, blue.

What's going on?

Hello, steve.

Hello, steve.

We're packing our lunch.

It's a special lunch.

We're only packing foods
that start with the "p" sound.

Want to help us?

Do you want to help
mr. Salt and mrs. Pepper

Pack their
special "p" lunch?

You do? Great.

Then we'll go look
for more blue's clues.

First, we need to pack
a sandwich.

Which sandwich should we put
in our purple paper bag?

Hmm. Do you see
which sandwich

Starts with
the "p" sound?

Hamburger

Peanut butter
sandwich

And a cheese sandwich.

Which one starts
with the "p" sound?

Peanut butter sandwich!

Oh, the peanut butter

We definitely need
to pack a snack.

A special snack,
starting with the letter "p".

Hmm...

Which one
of these snacks

Starts with

Pretzels!

Oh, yeah,

Pretzels start

Just like our

Wait, a drink!

Yes, we definitely
need a special drink

That starts
with the "p" sound.

Hmm...

You're pretty good.

Pretzels!

perfect lunch!

Ooh, we still
have to look for
more blue's clues

So we can figure out

( Barks )

Wow.

Let's take a look...

Around this book.

...rhymes

No, that's
not it.

Hi there, sheep.

What are you doing?

Hi, steve.

Hi, blue.

I'm making a poem.

You are? Great!

Is it a rhyming poem?

Yes.

That's what I
need help with:

The rhyming part.

Will you help me
finish my rhymes?

Well, we've just been rhyming
all day.

Will you help, too?

I hear you're
an excellent rhymer.

Well, the first line
of my poem is

"There once was a fox
on a box playing with...

I need a word that
rhymes with fox and box.

Steve:
hmm, fox, box, cars?

Fox, box, paints?

Fox, box, blocks?
Hmm...

Which three words
rhyme?

Fox, box, blocks.

Oh! Fox,
box, blocks!

They rhyme
perfectly.

Blocks, yes.

Thanks, steve.

So the first line
of my poem is

"There once was a fox
on a box

Playing with blocks."

Here's my second line.

"Along came a goat,
riding in a...
Dressed in a..."

I need two words
that rhyme with goat.

Hmm.

Do you see two words
that rhyme with goat?

Goat riding in a...

Boat!

Dressed in a...

Coat!

Great!

Boat and coat.

We figured out
the whole second line.

Okay, so how much of the poem
have we finished now?

"There once was a fox on a box
playing with blocks.

Then along came a goat, riding
in a boat, dressed in a coat."

We need one more line
to finish this poem.

"So the fox jumped off the box,
put on one shoe

And paddled after the goat
in a..."

Hmm.

Do you see what the fox
could ride in

That rhymes with shoe?

Blue canoe.

Blue canoe.

Right, blue canoe rhymes
with shoe.

Brilliant.

Blue canoe,
that's perfect!

We're done.

Let's read our poem
together.

"Once there was
a fox on a box
playing with..."

Blocks.

"Then along came a goat,
riding in a..."

Boat!

"Dressed in a..."

Coat!

"And the fox jumped
off the box,
put on one shoe

And paddled
after the goat in a..."

Blue canoe!

Thanks for helping me.

Hey, you're welcome.

But, uh...
Did you see

Which way
my puppy went?

Didn't she jump
in that canoe?

No, that was fox.

Ooh! Gad! You...

Mice! I...

A clue!

Blue?
You see blue?
Where?

No, a clue.

This?
Oh, that's
not blue.

That's
just a clue.

Hey... This mouse

Has got blue's
paw print on it.

She's a clue.

A blue's clue.

Well, you know
what we need.

Our handy-dandy...

Mouse:

Notebook.

Okay, so,
we have a mouse.

Hi.

All right.

Draw an oval shape
for the body...

Semi-circles for the ears,
the eyes and nose...

Lines for the whiskers...

And a long, squiggly line
for the tail. There.

A mouse.

( Chuckles )

Well, we have
all three clues.

We have all three clues!

Do you know what that means?

We're ready for our...

Thinking chair! Come on.

( Barking "blue skiddoo" )

There goes blue,
let's go, too.

A rhyme!

( Humming "blue skiddoo" )

Ah...

All right.

Now that we're in our...
Thinking chair, let's think.

Okay, so, we need to figure out

And our blue's clues are

A number " "...

A clock...

And... A mouse.

Hi.

Okay, so what rhyme is about
a mouse, a number " ",
and a clock?

Hmm...

Ooh, could it be the clock
that struck : and was
afraid of a mouse?

No.

No.

Well, what rhyme is about
a clock that strikes :

And a mouse running
up and down, or...

Is there a rhyme like that?

Hickory dickory dock.

Hickory dickory dock!

Yeah, that's it!

Of course.

A clock for a clock
in the rhyme.

The number " "
for "the clock strikes : ."

And a mouse
who runs up and down.

Hickory dickory dock.

You're so smart.
