HE LAUGHS

High in the sky, up, up in the clouds,

Fuffa Cloud has a big day ahead.

She has to practise for her Rain Test.

-Well, it's not that easy, you know.

-Hello, Fuffa.

Do you want a raining lesson before Rainbow tests you?

No, thanks. Baba Yellow just brushed me and that was bad enough.

-I'd rather practise on my own.

-OK.

-Baba Green.

-Hello, Baba Pink.

That's a lovely little rainpear tree.

I'm just going to plant it in the orchard

so it will grow big and tall.

Don't forget to water it.

I will. I mean, I won't.

HE LAUGHS

Right. I'd better put the washing out.

-Good luck with your raining, Fuffa.

-Thanks, Baba Pink.

Right. Raining practice. Here I go.

-Now that's what I call raining.

-Oh, hey!

-Huh?

-I'm all wet!

All right, own up! Who did it? Who just rained on me?

-Oops!

-Fuffa!

-Time to go!

-Fuffa! Oh!

L-l-look at my orange, just look at it!

SHE HUMS

Oh, hi, Baba Yellow. It's a beautiful day.

It is! I'm going somewhere nice and quiet to play my Fluteytoot.

Oh! Have fun!

SHE HUMS

PLAYS FLUTEYTOOT

Hmm. This could be a good place to rain. Right.

Oh! Oh, no! It's raining.

My Fluteytoot.

Oh, no!

Ha-ha! Fuffa, it was you!

Oh, sorry, Baba Yellow. I was just practising for my rain test.

-You seem to be good at it.

-But I'm not!

I keep doing it wrong and now I've got you and your Fluteytoot all wet.

Pflpl.

Uh!

Oh, don't worry, it'll dry out.

Hi, Baba Yellow. Hi, Fuffa. How are you getting on with your practice?

Not very well. I can't rain in the right place.

I'm only a little bit wet.

-Well, why don't you let me help?

-Uhhh.

Oh, go on, Fuffa.

You don't want to stop now, do you?

Come on, follow me!

Ho-ho-ho! That looks like hot work, Baba Green.

It is and you're making it hotter.

OK, I'll shine further away then.

Thanks, Sun!

There! All done!

It's nearly time for the rain clouds to water this little rainpear tree.

OK, Fuffa, you can do it. Ready?

-Right!

-Three, two, one, go!

That's it, Fuffa! Well done!

Hooray! I did it! And I didn't rain on anyone.

Eh, Baba Pink, your washing is getting wet.

What?

-Ohhh!

-Oh, no! Your dry washing! I've rained all over it.

That's it! I'm not doing it any more.

-But, Fuffa...

-I can't do it! I'm not doing the test.

Fuffa! Wait!

Oh, dear! Poor Fuffa.

Come on, Pinkhorsey, let's go and find her.

SHE HUMS

Baba Blue.

Fuffa Cloud's a little bit upset and I can't find her anywhere.

I'll help!

Bluehorsey! Let's go find Fuffa Cloud.

-Fuffa!

-Fuffa!

-Where are you?

-Fuffa Cloud!

-Where are you? Fuffa!

What's wrong? Where is Fuffa?

We don't know. She's gone off in a huff.

Fuffa in a huffa? Hm.

I might have upset her when she rained on my orange.

But it was a big dripping mess.

And she rained over me and my Fluteytoot.

And my dry washing. But it was just an accident.

I'll come and help you look.

I'll be back to finish your orange later, Rainbow.

Hold on, I'm coming too.

ALL: Fuffa Cloud! Where are you?

Oh, where are those rainclouds? They were meant to be here ages ago!

ALL: Fuffa!

Cloudbabies, Rainbow, what's wrong?

-We're looking for Fuffa. She's run off.

-In a huffa.

Oh, I'll help you look for her.

I could look for the rain clouds on the way.

They were meant to be here ages ago.

We'll get you watered soon, little tree. Greenhorsey!

ALL: Fuffa! Fuffa! Fuffa!

# Fuffa!

# Fuffa!

# Up in the sky We search high and low

# Through the clouds in the air Flying high we go

# We cross the sky But we don't miss a thing

# Cos skyhorsies rock As we sit and sing

# We look and we seek We search as we try

# To find what is lost in the sky

# Fuffa!

# Fuffa! #

-Now we've looked everywhere.

-She must be somewhere.

Look!

Fuffa.

There, this will make you feel better.

Fuffa, you've made the little rainpear tree grow.

I have, haven't I?

And you rained in the right place.

And at the right time.

-I didn't, didn't I?

-Yes, you did, Fuffa Cloud.

-ALL: Ha-ha!

-Well done, Fuffa Cloud.

Huh? What's that?

It's your Cloudhelper's badge, Fuffa. You deserve it.

ALL: Yay! Hooray! Well done, Fuffa!

I knew you could do it!

So Fuffa Cloud had passed her rain test. She couldn't be happier.

And neither could the little rainpear tree.

# Who looks after the sky?

-# The Cloudbabies do

-Cloudbabies, Cloudbabies. #
