[Narrator sighs]

NARRATOR: Spring is in the air.

The flowers are starting to bloom.

[sniffing]

And it's the perfect time for an elephant

to take a stroll in the woods.

Hi, Spider. What you doing?

Hi, Elephant.

I'm building a brand-new web.

KIDS: Web!

What a beautiful web!

Thanks, Elephant.

It's my brand-new home.

Home?

I just see a web.

My web is my home.

And I love my new home.

Now I have to go and get all my stuff to move in.

Will you watch my web while I'm gone?

Sure!

I'd be happy to.

NARRATOR: That's a big responsibility,

watching Spider's web.

I know.

Webs are really delicate and easy to break.

So I have to make sure no one runs into it.

DUCK: Incoming!

[screams, quacks]

[gasps]

Duck!

[grunts]

[quacking]

Oh, dear.

[sighs]

Oh, hello, Elephant.

[quacks]

Duck.

You broke Spider's web.

[grunts]

I did?

What? What web? Where?

It's gone now.

The letters blew away.

Oh, I'm sorry.

It was an accident.

I know.

But I was in charge of watching it

while Spider was gone.

That was her home.

Her home?!

[quacks]

Where's she gonna live?

I got to fix it.

I got to fix Spider's web.

Ah, good thing I got some letters here.

I'll make it just like new.

Huh?

Nothing's happening.

Um, uh, maybe, uh, this one goes here

and that one there and maybe a little bit of this and...

[gasps]

Oh.

Come on!

Build a web!

[groans]

[quacks]

Duck, the letters "J," "L," and "R"

aren't the right letters in the word "web."

Well, how am I supposed to know what the right letters are?

Well, you can figure it out if you listen for the sound

of each letter in the word.

After all...

♪ Letters stand for sounds, you know ♪

♪ Put sounds together, words will grow ♪

♪ Listen for each letter sound ♪

♪ And then we'll hunt the letter down. ♪

So, we want to build a w-e-b, web.

What's the first sound in the word "web?"

W-w-w.

And what letter makes the w- sound?

Oh, that would be "W!"

So let's find the letter "W."

Ha! Let's go!

[quacks]

♪ Letters stand for sounds, you know ♪

KIDS: Watermelon!

[sighs]

Okay, cousins!

Lunch is ready!

Come and get it!

ANTS: Okay, chief!

Where are we gonna find a letter "W?"

Hey, there, WordFriends.

What you looking for?

We're looking for the letter "W," Ant.

I broke Spider's web,

and we're gonna need a "W" to fix it.

A letter "W," huh?

Hmm.

Well, hey, look at that!

I have one right here!

Uh, w-w-watermelon!

That watermelon has a "W."

Oh, we can't take the "W" from your watermelon.

Sure, you can.

We have plenty of watermelon.

Watch.

All right, ants!

Ready, set, eat!

[burping]

Excuse us.

Here you go.

A letter "W."

Oh.

That's mighty generous of you.

Yes, thank you, ants.

You're welcome.

Okay, Duck, what's the next letter we need?

Web.

W-e-b.

[gasps]

The e- sound.

And what letter makes that sound?

Now, don't tell me, don't tell me.

Let me think.

E- e- e-.

The letter "E" makes the e- sound!

[quacks]

That's right!

Come on, Elephant!

Let's go find the letter "E" before Spider gets back.

♪ Listen for each letter sound

♪ And then we'll hunt the letter down ♪

NARRATOR: Duck and Elephant continued

to look for the letters in Spider's web.

They looked high for the letter "E."

Nothing up here, Duck.

[groans]

NARRATOR: They looked low for the letter "E."

No letter "E" under here.

NARRATOR: They even looked underwater for the letter "E."

Letter "E!"

Oh, letter "E!"

KIDS: Shell!

Hi-ya, Crab.

Hello, Duck.

What brings you to my watery wonderland?

Elephant and I are looking for the letter "E."

I broke Spider's web,

and we need the letter "E" to fix her home.

Have you seen one?

Ah, Duck, I have a letter "E"

right here, in my shell.

No, no, no, no, no.

We can't take your "E."

Don't worry, Duck.

There's plenty of shells in the sea.

[sighs]

The letter "E."

Thanks, Crab.

No problem, Duck.

I got the "E!"

Goody-goody-goody-goody- goody-goody, goody, goody!

Good-bye, Crab!

Thank you!

[sing-song]: I got the "E!"

I got the "E!"

Okay, Duck.

What's the last letter we need?

Uh, w-e-b.

[gasps]

I know that sound.

The letter "B" makes the b- sound!

Then let's go find the letter "B."

And fix Spider's web.

♪ Listen for each letter sound ♪

♪ And then we'll hunt the letter down... ♪

NARRATOR: Duck and Elephant marched off to Dog's house

to find the letter "B."

[barks, pants]

[growls playfully]

DUCK: Incoming!

Whoa-whoa-whoa, whoa!

Coming through!

[groans]

[quacks]

[barks, pants]

Hi, Dog.

Uh, sorry about that.

Um, I think your letters are a little, uh, crooked.

[grunts]

Oh.

[shudders, pants]

[barks]

Oh, uh, well, Elephant and I...

Uh, Elephant?

Elephant?

Where are you?

In here.

I'm stuck.

Oh! Hang on, Elephant!

We'll get you out!

[all grunting]

[grunting continues]

Oh...

[loud crash]

Oh!

[barks] Quack.

Dog, I broke Spider's web,

and that's her home!

I need the letter "B" to fix it.

Do you have the letter "B"?

[groans]

[gasps]: Do you mean it?

I can go searching in your pit for the letter "B"?

[laughs]: Well, all righty!

DUCK: Letter "B"? Letter "B"?

Letter... [gasps]

Gotcha!

Thanks, Dog.

Now I can fix Spider's web!

We'd better hurry, Duck.

Spider will be back soon.

All right, let's go!

See you, Dog! Thanks again!

Okay, Elephant, I'm ready to build the web.

[sighs]

[quacks]

But... I have the right letters.

Why can't I build a word?

Remember, Duck, you need to have the sounds in the right order

to build a word.

Oh, right! I have to put the letters

in the right order to build a word.

♪ Letters stand for sounds, you know ♪

♪ Put sounds together, words will grow ♪

♪ Now you know it, now you can ♪

♪ So now it's time to...

Look at that

beautiful web!

ELEPHANT: It's as good as new!

Ya and hoo!

I'm back.

Hi, Spider.

Web, sweet web.

[sighs]

Thanks for watching my web, Elephant.

Oh, I couldn't have done it without Duck.

Oh... [laughs]

[quacks]

NARRATOR: By sounding out the letters,

Duck learned to build a word.

"Web." Spider's new home.

The end.

KIDS: Duck!

That's me! Guess what time it is.

It's snack time!

♪ I got bananas, a tasty treat ♪

♪ And I've got apples juicy and sweet ♪

♪ I've got candy, cake and more ♪

♪ Sodas, cookies, sweets galore ♪

Sweets galore, indeed!

You've got a sweet tooth, my friend.

Which one's his sweet tooth, Crab?

He's got lots of teeth, you know.

Get your head out of there.

A sweet tooth means that you like to eat foods

that have a lot of sugar.

But too much sugar isn't good for you.

You might lose a tooth.

But I love my teeth!

Oy!

Oh, I really wanted to eat that apple.

Don't you worry, my toothy friend.

All the letters are right here.

We can still have snack time.

All we have to do is build a word!

It's time to build a word.

Let's build it! Let's build it now!

A-P-P-L-E.

KIDS: Apple!

Yeah, we just built a word.

but Duck, being Duck, was happy playing in a box.

"O"...

"X."

B...

O... X.

I must say...

Uh... [clears throat]

Who's there?

[gasps]

Well, look at that!

Hello there!

[giggling]

Who are you?

I'm Duck.

D-U-C-K.

Duck.

And who are you?

I'm Caterpillar.

That's a very big name for a little WordFriend.

Nice to meet you, Caterpillar.

[quacks]

Hello, Duck.

[gasps]: Ooh, what's that?

Oh, that's...

my N-E-S-T, nest.

[laughs]: That's my home.

What's a home?

A home is where I live.

See, that's Log, that's where Frog lives.

It's his home.

And that's Barn, that's where Pig lives.

That's his home.

Oh!

And where do I live?

Where's my home?

You?

[gasps]

Say, that's a good question.

Where is your home?

Hmm. Well, I suppose...

you don't have a home yet, Caterpillar.

But, ooh, I-I can build you one.

You can?

Sure! I know my letters pretty well, you know.

[sighs]: Huh, what kind of home is good for a caterpillar?

Um...

I-I don't know.

[groans]

Well...

Hm. Um, oh, Frog will know what kind of home you need!

He is one smart frog, Frog is!

Caterpillar?

Ca... Where'd you go?

I'm coming.

[panting]

[chuckles]: Wow!

You've got a lot of legs, Caterpillar.

But they're all very small, so I don't walk very fast.

Well, that's no problem.

I'll give you a lift.

We need to move fast and get you a home.

NARRATOR: So Duck and Caterpillar went to Frog's log

to see if he could help them find her a home.

Frog, this is my new WordFriend, Caterpillar.

Hi, Caterpillar.

You're an itty-bitty WordFriend, aren't you?

Pleased to meet you.

Pleased to meet you, Frog.

Caterpillar needs a home, Frog,

and you're always full of good ideas,

so I thought you could help.

Well... I am something of an idea expert.

Hmm.

[croaks]

I know-- a bag is a perfect home for a caterpillar.

Great idea, Frog.[quacks]

See, I told you Frog was good at those idea thingies.

[croaks]

[humming tune]

Frog, got any of them letters around here

to... to build a bag for Caterpillar?

Duck. Huh?

I have them right here.

Oh, what are those?

FROG: Hmm?

Oh, they're letters.

Each one of them has a sound.

And when you put the sounds together

you build words, like this.

B-a-g.

KIDS: Bag!

Wow, a bag is the perfect home for me.

Okay, let's try out your new home.

Thanks a lot, Frog.

All right, you can live right here, Caterpillar.

We'll be neighbors.

That means we live next to each other.

♪ Thank you for my new home

♪ A cozy place to stay

♪ I really love my new home...

[wind whistling]

♪ But should it blow away? ♪

Oh, oh, hang on!

I'll save you, Caterpillar.

Whoa!

[loud quacking] Oh, dear!

Hmm, now where did I put my lunch?

Oh, there it is now.

Sweet.

[gasps]

Huh?

A moving bag?

[chuckles] [gasps]

A laughing bag! Yikes!

DUCK: Incoming!

Caterpillar, Caterpillar!

Where are you?!

I'm right here, Duck.

Oh, my gosh! [quacks]

Are you all right?Uh-huh.

Where's Pig?

PIG: I'm here.

Hey, you're not my lunch.

Uh-uh.

I'm Caterpillar.

Well, I'll be.

Hi there, Caterpillar.

That's a big word

for an itty-bitty WordFriend, isn't it?

Uh-huh.

Caterpillar is my new WordFriend, Pig.

I'm helping her find a home that will be just right.

We tried this bag.

But it blew away on the wind.

Well, then that bag isn't a very good home for you, is it?

Uh-uh.

No, sir.

You need a home that's heavier than a bag

so you won't blow away.

Well, maybe I can help you.

Oh, would you?

Let's see-- something heavier than a bag.

Hmm...

Say, what about a can?

A can?

Yeah, a can is a lot heavier than a bag.

Great idea, Pig.

We'll build Caterpillar a can.

It will be her new home.

Hey, those are letters.

They sure are.

And each letter has a sound.

Listen.

C-a-n.

KIDS: Can!

Wow, my new home-- a can.

[clinking]

A can won't blow away.

It's a much better home than a bag.

Thanks, Pig.

See you later.

There you go, Caterpillar.

You'll be safe from the wind in this can.

♪ Thank you for my new home

♪ A sturdy place to stay

♪ I really love my new home

♪ But should I float away?

Ooh. [quacks]

Your home is full of water.

Oh, are you okay?

Uh-huh. Just a little wet.

That can kept you safe from the wind...

But not from the rain.

I'm never going to find a home that's just right for me.

Oh, don't give up, Caterpillar.

We just need to find you a home that will keep you safe

from the wind and the rain.

Hmm.

Hold on there, Caterpillar.

I'm getting an idea. [quacks]

We need to build you a box.

A box?

Yes, a box.

It's the perfect home for you.

It won't blow away in the wind,

and the lid will keep out the rain.

Duck, you are so smart.

I am?

Uh... [clearing throat] [quacks] Of course I am.

Come on, Caterpillar,

it's time for me and you to...

build a word!
