wow i had no idea there were so many

cool places to live besides the library

nor i

and now i know exactly what kind of new

home i should have and what's that a

castle oh i want to live in an enormous

castle i like the one in the book

all right we'll just find you a book

about how to build a castle

it should have plenty of closet space

and a rep room and a sauna oh and a

bellyard room and i'd also like a lap

pool

perhaps some free weights i want to do

some heavy lifting

a beehive

ah animals live in all sorts of places

let's watch

hey where you going

if you were if you were a bald eagle you

would begin in a nest

the biggest in the world it's called an

airy and can be the size of a

three-story house

but there's no time for bragging if

you're always eating

at one month you'd begin to lose your

soft baby feathers until you were a

fledgling in full feather at three

months you'd finally make the leap you

dare to wing it and soar

you'd soon become an expert flyer

you'd watch the grown-ups and learn how

to catch your own food at four or five

years old your head and tail feathers

would be white

if you were a male eagle you could

stretch your wings to six feet

as long as a surfboard

if you were a female eagle you'd be

bigger still

you could stretch your wings to eight

feet almost as long as a ping-pong table

with wings like that you would be a

mighty hunter

especially when it came to finding a

mate

if you were a bald eagle you would build

a giant mask and have some eclipse too

so that one day

they would be as mighty as you

[Music]

and now don't

[Applause]

please welcome queen v

thank you joy honey and may i say i love

your hat thank you queen bee i see you

brought some friends honey those are my

workers they're certainly busy guys

actually they're all female really all

females the males or drones as we call

them stay in the honeycomb and take care

of me all day

i just adore it

who wouldn't

so you live in a honeycomb made of

beeswax is that right that's right joy

that's where we keep the pollen we

collect from flowers along with the

honey we make and the larva

that's my eggs i must say

we do love our honeycomb home honey

how many larvae do you have in there on

my last count it was several thousand

little larva several thousand oh yes and

it's about time i get back to them

goodbye wait take the workers with you

we'll be right back

i think one got through

and

b is ahead making a b line for the

finish line bear is second buffalo is

next to last bird is last but she is

flying what's this b has spotted a

beehive and she's burst right off the

track bear is following b probably

looking for honey coming down the

stretch whirl bird has landed on

buffalo's horn she's getting a free ride

and it's

if you were

if you lived in a shell you might be a

snail

a turtle

a conch

or

a spider crab

if you were a spider crab you'd try hard

to hide yourself

you'd live in sea grass on the edge of

the ocean

you'd squeeze in among the rocks

you travel at night under the cover of

darkness

and you'd be a master of disguise

your shell would have prickly hairs you

could stick things too like seaweed

and sponges

anything to keep you hidden

when you outgrew your shell and grew a

bigger one

you'd cover up again

but what puts you in such a hiding mood

seagulls of course

you're his favorite food

if he decides to swoop and grab you

hide because that's what spider crabs do

it's time for good story time
