0:00:15 > 0:00:17Hello, everyone.

0:00:17 > 0:00:19Hello, Driver Dan.

0:00:25 > 0:00:29# Which of our friends are we going to see?

0:00:29 > 0:00:33# Which of our friends do you think it will be?

0:00:33 > 0:00:36# Climb aboard and travel with me

0:00:36 > 0:00:40# All aboard the Story Train. #

0:00:40 > 0:00:42TRAIN TOOTS

0:00:42 > 0:00:45All aboard the Story Train!

0:00:45 > 0:00:49- Tweet, tweet, tweet.- Twinkle has been looking for our friends.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52Who has she found?

0:00:52 > 0:00:53Look, there's Hip.

0:00:53 > 0:00:57And where there's a Hip, there's always a Hop.

0:00:57 > 0:00:59They're drawing pictures.

0:00:59 > 0:01:03- I wonder what they're drawing? - Look, there's the Vrooms' carriage.

0:01:03 > 0:01:06I can't see them. Where are they?

0:01:06 > 0:01:09Yes, you're right, it's Hip and Hop.

0:01:09 > 0:01:14Maybe they'll know where the Vrooms are. Let's go and ask, shall we?

0:01:17 > 0:01:18Hello, Hip and Hop.

0:01:18 > 0:01:21Hi, Driver Dan. Hi, Twinkle.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24We're drawing all the favourite places we can think of.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27Look, we've already drawn our carriage.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29Good drawing, Hop.

0:01:29 > 0:01:33- Where are the Vrooms?- They went off to practise their racing moves.

0:01:33 > 0:01:37I'm going to draw another place, somewhere perfect.

0:01:37 > 0:01:41- Somewhere perfect, eh? What would that be like?- I'll show you.

0:01:41 > 0:01:45Somewhere quiet, with nice soft grass

0:01:45 > 0:01:48and two trees to sit under. See?

0:01:48 > 0:01:51That does look like a perfect place.

0:01:51 > 0:01:57Oh, no, my perfect place would be a big hill to zoom down

0:01:57 > 0:01:59and a big bump to jump over.

0:02:01 > 0:02:02Now, that's perfect.

0:02:02 > 0:02:06I think my place is more perfect than yours.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09Let's find them and see.

0:02:09 > 0:02:13- Yeah!- I'm going to find mine first.

0:02:13 > 0:02:18Come on, Twinkle, let's follow them. Maybe we'll find the Vrooms.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21Maybe it's around here somewhere.

0:02:21 > 0:02:24Hooray! That looks like my drawing.

0:02:24 > 0:02:25It does, doesn't it?

0:02:29 > 0:02:33Ah, nice and quiet. What do you think, Hop?

0:02:33 > 0:02:34It's OK.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36< Vroom, vroom.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39- Oh, no!- That's more like it.

0:02:39 > 0:02:43Vroom, vroom, vroom.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47- Hello, Vrooms. - Vroom, vroom. Peep, peep.

0:02:47 > 0:02:51This is definitely not my perfect place, Driver Dan.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54No, it's not very quiet or peaceful, is it?

0:02:54 > 0:02:58- What about you, Hop, did you find your perfect place?- No.

0:02:58 > 0:03:02Can we go on the Story Train to look, Driver Dan?

0:03:02 > 0:03:05Good idea, let's go.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08Do you want to come and help us look too, Vrooms?

0:03:08 > 0:03:10- Peep, peep.- Come on, then.

0:03:10 > 0:03:16- We're all hooked up. Twinkle, are we ready to go?- Tweet, tweet, tweet.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18Are you ready too? Then let's go!

0:03:18 > 0:03:21All aboard the Story Train.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32I wonder what Twinkle can see? Can you help her look?

0:03:32 > 0:03:34There's Tallulah.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36She's taking photos.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39You're right, it is Tallulah.

0:03:39 > 0:03:44Let's go and see what she's taking pictures of.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49Of course, the play park,

0:03:49 > 0:03:53with big hills to zoom down and bumps to jump over.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57- This is definitely my perfect place. - I think you're right, Hop.

0:03:57 > 0:04:02Come on, Vrooms, let's race around my perfect place.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04Hello, Tallulah.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07- Hi, Tallulah.- (Hello, everyone.)

0:04:07 > 0:04:09(Why are you whispering?)

0:04:09 > 0:04:13(I'm trying to take a picture of this butterfly,

0:04:13 > 0:04:17(but it flies away every time it hears a noise.)

0:04:17 > 0:04:19- Whee!- Vroom, vroom! Peep, peep!

0:04:19 > 0:04:22Shush!

0:04:22 > 0:04:25Oh, no, not again!

0:04:25 > 0:04:28Hop, Vrooms, please, can you be quieter?

0:04:28 > 0:04:30Vroom, vroom.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33I'm trying to take a picture of a butterfly,

0:04:33 > 0:04:35and too much noise makes it fly away.

0:04:35 > 0:04:38Whoops, sorry, Tallulah.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41Oh, this isn't my perfect place.

0:04:41 > 0:04:42It's too quiet now.

0:04:42 > 0:04:46- So, what do we do?- I don't know.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49What do you think makes your places perfect?

0:04:49 > 0:04:52Er, the quiet.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54Lots of space to run around.

0:04:54 > 0:04:57Look closely, what's the same in both pictures?

0:04:57 > 0:05:01- The trees.- The sky.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04Yes, but what else?

0:05:04 > 0:05:07- Well, Hip's in both pictures. - And so is Hop.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09And where there's a Hip...

0:05:09 > 0:05:13- There's always a Hop.- That's right.

0:05:13 > 0:05:18- Yeah!- Our perfect place is anywhere we're together.- Together.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21Wait, shush, look.

0:05:21 > 0:05:25The butterfly. Everyone, keep nice and quiet.

0:05:28 > 0:05:32Got it, thanks, everyone.

0:05:32 > 0:05:36I know the perfect place for everyone to go to together,

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Story Corner.

0:05:38 > 0:05:39ALL: Yeah!

0:05:39 > 0:05:43We're all hooked up. Twinkle, are we ready to go?

0:05:43 > 0:05:47- Tweet, tweet, tweet. - Are you ready too? Then, let's go.

0:05:47 > 0:05:51All aboard the Story Train.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53We're going to have a story.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55I love stories.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57I hope it's a funny story.

0:06:07 > 0:06:08Vroom, vroom.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11Now then, what story shall we read today?

0:06:11 > 0:06:15Something that's just perfect.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18Ah-ha, I know just the book.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22- Is everybody settled down, ready to listen?- Ready!- Yeah!

0:06:22 > 0:06:26- Are all of you, sitting down comfy and ready to listen?- We're ready.

0:06:26 > 0:06:30This story is called Gigantic Jules.

0:06:30 > 0:06:34It was written by Benjamin James, with pictures by Tom Plant.

0:06:34 > 0:06:38It was a busy morning at Al's Diner.

0:06:38 > 0:06:42Gigantic Jules, the gigantosaurus, was slurping through

0:06:42 > 0:06:46her ginormous breakfast when she spotted a group of mean grouchosaurs

0:06:46 > 0:06:49picking on a little dinosaur.

0:06:49 > 0:06:51Jules strode over and bent down.

0:06:51 > 0:06:55"You're putting me off my prehistoric pancakes," she growled.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58"Pick on someone your own size!"

0:06:58 > 0:07:01"Ah, help!" And they sped straight out of the door.

0:07:01 > 0:07:05The grouchosaurs are not very nice.

0:07:05 > 0:07:07No, they're not, are they, Tallulah?

0:07:07 > 0:07:12"Phew, thanks," said the little dinosaur, whose name was Mike.

0:07:12 > 0:07:17"Let me know any time you need a hand, I'll be happy to help."

0:07:17 > 0:07:19"Tee-hee-hee!" hooted Jules.

0:07:19 > 0:07:25"A little thing like you help a giant like me? Oh, you're so funny!

0:07:25 > 0:07:29"Keep telling the jokes and let me buy you a herbiburger."

0:07:29 > 0:07:32From that moment on, Jules the gigantosaurus

0:07:32 > 0:07:36and Mike the microceratops became the best of friends.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39They'd go fruit picking together.

0:07:39 > 0:07:42They'd go to the Dinoball tournaments together.

0:07:42 > 0:07:46On sunny days, they'd find a splendid spot for splashing

0:07:46 > 0:07:47and sunbathing.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51Do you think that is their perfect place?

0:07:51 > 0:07:53Yes, I do, Hop.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56One morning, Mike set off to meet Jules,

0:07:56 > 0:07:59but his friend was nowhere to be seen.

0:07:59 > 0:08:03He'd checked the Jurassic Gym and tried the Triassic playground

0:08:03 > 0:08:07when he heard a moaning coming from deep in the forest.

0:08:07 > 0:08:12- Oh, dear.- Mike cautiously crept between the dark trees.

0:08:12 > 0:08:16He was a bit scared, but he knew his big friend might be in trouble.

0:08:16 > 0:08:21He followed the sound deeper until, at last, he spotted Jules.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Her foot was caught in a creeper,

0:08:24 > 0:08:28but although Jules was big and strong, the tight little knot

0:08:28 > 0:08:31was much too tiny for her enormous claws to undo.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33She was stuck.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35"Don't worry," said Mike,

0:08:35 > 0:08:40and his small hands deftly untangled the tricky knot.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43In no time, Jules was free.

0:08:43 > 0:08:47"Wow, Mike, You may be mini, but you're massively clever!

0:08:47 > 0:08:53"I can't believe you managed to undo that horrible knot and rescue me.

0:08:53 > 0:08:54"You're my hero!"

0:08:54 > 0:08:57Mike felt ten feet tall.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00"Don't mention it," he said, beaming.

0:09:00 > 0:09:04"Now," said Jules, as Mike hopped onto her shoulder,

0:09:04 > 0:09:08"who's for some fossil fries and a swamp smoothie?"

0:09:08 > 0:09:13"Me!" cheered Mike. "And you'd better make mine a large!"

0:09:13 > 0:09:14The End.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17Well, did you enjoy that story?

0:09:17 > 0:09:22Yes, Driver Dan. Jules and Mike had more fun when they were together.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25Now, it's your turn, which bit did you like best?

0:09:25 > 0:09:28Come on, it's time to show me the story.

0:09:30 > 0:09:33- Mmm!- These pancakes are delicious!

0:09:33 > 0:09:37I'm a gigantic dinosaur. Roar!

0:09:37 > 0:09:39Quick, run away, run away!

0:09:39 > 0:09:41We're swimming and splashing.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43The water's lovely.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45Splash, splash, splash.

0:09:45 > 0:09:49(We're creeping through the scary forest.)

0:09:49 > 0:09:50(It's a bit dark.)

0:09:50 > 0:09:54- We're looking for Jules. - There she is!

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Let's spin, like Jules and Mike.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00Come on, let's go back to the diner.

0:10:00 > 0:10:03That's the biggest burger ever.

0:10:03 > 0:10:07- Yum, yum!- Thanks for showing me the story. You were great.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10We enjoyed that story, didn't we?

0:10:10 > 0:10:15Jules was gigantic, but she needed little Mike's help, didn't she?

0:10:15 > 0:10:18Yeah! And Mike and Jules had a perfect place.

0:10:18 > 0:10:22Just like ours, perfect when they're together.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25Glad you enjoyed the story, everyone. All aboard!

0:10:25 > 0:10:28All aboard the Story Train.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30Bye, everyone.

0:10:30 > 0:10:36It's time to go, but let's come back soon, because we all love stories!

0:10:36 > 0:10:40- Bye, Driver Dan.- Bye.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49I like stories about dinosaurs.

0:10:49 > 0:10:51I love all kinds of stories.

0:10:51 > 0:10:55I like stories about scary forests.

0:10:55 > 0:10:57I like stories that make me giggle.
