to conquer us the human race
will soon be standing face to face
the aliens are coming
the admiral's a fearsome sight
a simple creature not too bright
all he wants to do is fight
the aliens are coming
the first mate looks like wobbly jelly
he's sort of gaseous and he's smelly
he has an eyeball on his belly
the aliens are coming
these beans come in different sizes this

[Music]
hi mom
hi lionel
what you doing just a little work
sweetie
why what's up
well and i was just wondering
is cliffhanger brave or or is he scared
because he can't get off that cliff
well
maybe we should read a cliffhanger and
then talk about it huh yeah in fact
there's a great one right on that shelf
where over there
flying off the shelf once again it's the
continuing daring and dangling
adventures of
[Music]
cliffhangers today's adventure number
7657
cliff hanger and quentin quigley's quick
question
[Music]
excuse me
excuse me
we find cliffhanger where we left him
last
hanging from a cliff
can
hold on much
longer
suddenly
cliff sees a blimp with question marks
on it approaching his cliff
excuse me sir i'm quentin quigley and
you are on my popular quiz program of
this clip the show that could get you
off this cliff do you want to answer a
quick question quickly cliff reaches
into his backpack and extracts his
trusty survival manual using his expert
decoding skills cliff begins to read
if quentin quickly asks you if you want
to answer a quick question
say yes
yes
okay
here goes
true or false mr hanger are you going to
get up this cliff today
true
i am going to get off this cliff today
true oh i'm terribly sorry mr hanger but
the correct answer is false
better luck next time playing
off this cliff
and that's why he's called cliff hanger
can
hold on much longer
so lionel what do you think
well mom
i think cliff is scared
but you know i think bravery is when you
do what you have to do
even when you're scared
cliffhanger well he's a mixture of
really really brave and really really
dumb
dumb
dumb what kevin is not dumb he's nothing
like that well
sometimes people have strong opinions
about good books
[Music]
this is the announcer bunny saying we're
halfway from the beginning and we're
halfway from the end wow what a concept
yo-yo
okay ready ready ready okay here i come
okay
very scary ten
very scary kid
okay cover your eyes again
okay
pretty scary eight pretty scary eight
okay okay cover your eyes
okay
hardly scary at all three
heavy scary at all
free
um hey
what's going on cubs oh
it's our
scariness experiment yeah you know how
people are scared of monsters and aliens
and you know stuff like that in that
book here come the aliens but they're
not scared of things i see all the time
yes and well
my theory is that for something to be
scary it has to be
unfamiliar
which means not something you see all
the time right lionel correct leona so
the more you see it the less scary it is
do you concur mother you know lionel i
do believe your hypothesis to be sound
um
hey you remember you guys remember the
story of abba yo-yo boy talking about a
guy who was scary i think it's right
downstairs come on oh let's go wait for
me
[Music]
abby yo-yo based on a south african
lullaby and folks story text by pete
seeger illustrations by michael hayes
once upon a time there was a little boy
who played the ukulele
around town he'd go clink clunk clunk
clink clunk
the grown-ups would say
take that thing out of here
not only that the boy's father got in
trouble
the boy's father was a magician
he had a magic wand he'd go
zoop
zoop
and make things disappear
[Music]
but he played too many tricks on people
he'd come up to someone about to drink a
nice cold glass of something
soup
the glass disappears
someone doing a hard job of work
up comes the father with his magic wand
no saw
he'd come up to someone about to sit
down after a hard day's work
no chair
people said to the father you get out of
here too take your magic wand and your
tricks and you and your son just get
the boy and his father were ostracized
that means they made him live on the
edge of town
now in this town they used to tell
stories
the old people used to tell stories
about the giant that lived in the old
days
they used to tell about a giant call
abba yo-yo
they said he was as tall as a tree
and could eat people up
of course nobody believed the story
but they told it anyway
one day
the sun
rose blood red over the hill
the first people got up and looked out
the window they saw a great big shadow
in front of the sun
they could feel the whole ground shake
women screamed strong men fainted
run for your lives have a yo-yo's coming
he comes to the pasture he grabs a whole
sheep
he grabs a whole cow
grab your most precious possessions and
run run
just then the boy and his father woke up
hey paw what's coming over the fields
my son that's happy yo-yo
oh if only i could get him to lie down i
could make him disappear
the boy says come with me paw
he grabbed his father by one hand the
father gets the magic wand and the boy
gets his ukulele they run across the
fields
people yell
don't go near him
he'll eat you alive
there was abba yo-yo
he had long fingernails cause he never
cut him he had slobbery teeth
because he didn't brush him stinking
feet because he didn't wash him
matted hair cuz he didn't comb it he
raised up his claws
just then the boy whips out his ukulele
well you know the giant had never heard
a song about himself before
a foolish grin spread over his face
and the giant started to dance
the boy went faster
[Music]
up steps the father
people looked out their windows
he's gone have the yo-yos disappear
the people ran across the fields
they lifted the boy and his father up on
their shoulders they said come back to
town
bring your darn ukulele we don't care
anymore
and they all say
[Music]
great story yeah see if they just became
more familiar with have a yo-yo maybe
they wouldn't be so scared of him and
they wouldn't have to make him disappear
yeah
