WHISTLING Hello!

Good morning!

How do you do?

-Biggleton!

-CHILDREN:

-Biggleton!

There is the big green recycling lorry,

ready to collect Biggleton's recycling.

That's a good idea.

Niall is doing some checks before he sets off.

He wouldn't want his lorry to break down

whilst he is out on his rounds.

Here's Momo the Athlete with some recycling for Niall to collect.

Hopefully he'll be here soon.

What's she doing with that book?

Ah, it's just the thing for her morning workout.

Lift, two, three, four.

-Hi.

-Hi.

-What you're up to?

-Oh, just took the recycling out.

-And that book too?

-Mm-hm.

-I love books, please can I borrow it?

-Yeah, sure.

-There you go.

-Thank you. I can read this at the Reading Tree.

The Reading Tree is my favourite tree that I like to read under.

-Well, have fun reading your books. Bye.

-Bye.

Now, where is this Reading Tree?

Maybe this is it.

You're already parked under my Reading Tree.

I didn't park, my car broke down.

Oh, dear, how is Esther the Newsreader going to get to work?

Jump in and I'll give you a push.

Good idea. The car will be on the move in no time.

One, two, three...

Oh, it won't budge.

Let's try again.

-BOTH:

-One, two, three...

Come on, try harder.

You can do it, Professor.

Getting this car moving again is a big job.

What's the matter?

My car broke down on the way to work,

and I really need to be there to read the news.

-Can you help?

-Sure.

-First let's do some stretching.

-OK.

-And one, and two...

Excellent. That's sure to get their arm muscles warmed up nicely.

Now let's try.

On the count of three.

ALL: One, two, three, go.

Oh, dear.

Let's try again.

-Go on, you can do it!

-On the count of three again.

ALL: One, two, three...

Come on, let's get this car moving.

Oh, dear. Will Esther ever get to work?

It looks like Niall is ready to go to work.

He's taking his tool box with him just in case.

And his big green recycling lorry is on the move.

I really don't know what to do.

Me neither. If only someone in Biggleton had a tool box.

And then they could fix your car.

A tool box full of useful tools, that's just what they need.

-Hello, do you need some help?

-Yes, please.

My car broke down on the way to work.

Ah, there's always someone in Biggleton to lend a hand.

Maybe Niall can fix the car with the tools he used on his lorry.

Here goes.

Twist here and a twist there.

-I hope it works.

-Fingers crossed.

Fingers crossed.

Why don't you try it now?

ENGINE SPLUTTERS

Oh, no, it's still not fixed.

It's no use.

Sorry, I only know how to fix my bin lorry.

Now I'll be late for work!

-I can give you a lift in my bin lorry.

-Thank you.

Aw, that's kind.

Niall couldn't fix the car...

Hop in.

..but he's found another way to help.

Esther might just get to work on time after all.

-Bye.

-Bye.

To the news studio!

Woo!

Go faster, go faster!

Keep going. It's nearly time for the news!

Woo!

Hello, here is Biggleton's big news.

Thanks for the lift, Niall.

Sorry I'm late.

She's made it! Well, maybe just a few seconds late.

There is a car that's broken down in Biggleton.

Yes, that's my car and it's getting in the way

of Professor Millie's Reading Tree.

-You're parked under my Reading Tree.

-I didn't park, my car broke down.

The people of Biggleton have tried to push it out the way.

If only there was a book on how to fix cars.

It must be here somewhere.

Oh, no. Professor Millie must have given up

trying to read at her Reading Tree.

-Ah-ha.

-Fancy that, a book about fixing cars.

That looks like an interesting read,

if only Millie had read that book before Esther broke down.

Here comes Esther back from the news studio,

and her car is still broken down.

-Thank you.

-It's OK.

What are we going to do with my car?

-I don't know.

-I found a book about cars!

Now we can fix my car.

Millie had just popped back to the lab for a useful book.

OK, the instruction says you will have to tighten the bolts

-if they are loose.

-Wrench.

Everyone is working hard to get the job done.

Tighten all of the screws just in case they are un-loosed.

And you have to check the tyres just in case they are flat.

Now that is what I call teamwork!

OK, now it should be fixed.

I really hope Esther's car is fixed.

Here it goes.

ENGINE STARTS

-Yay!

-Yes, it's working!

-It works! Thank you.

-Job done.

-It's OK.

-ALL:

-Bye!

Esther's car is on the move at last!

So Professor Millie has got her Reading Tree back. Fantastic!

Here's a book for you.

And Niall is going to give it a try too.

This is so nice.

What a perfect spot to sit and read a book.

Oh, you're back again?

Yes, because I thought the Reading Tree was very nice

-and I would like to try it too.

-OK, why don't you take a seat

and I will give you this book about tennis?

Ah, after such a busy day, it's nice to relax with a good book.

And now Esther's car is fixed, there's plenty of room for everyone!

ALL: Hi!

The Reading Tree is the place to be.

This calls for a big Biggleton celebration!
