# Oo-oo-ooh

# Raggles and Bluebird

# Everything is Rosie now

# Oo-oo-oo-ooh. #

Oh, no, it's no good.

What's the matter, Raggles?

I'm trying to get my skimmer down. But I can't reach. It's too high up.

Here, let me do it.

Thanks, Rosie. I wish I were big and tall like you.

You are growing.

Look, that how little you were and that's how tall you are now.

Oh! Have I grown any more?

-Not since I checked yesterday, Raggles.

-Oh...

Come on, let's go and play.

-Weee!

-Weee!

-Hi, Rosie. Hi, Raggles. Do you want to play?

-Yes.

Well caught, Will.

Yes! We're the best at piggy in the middle, Rosie!

This isn't fair. I have to get taller, and fast!

Cheer up, Raggles.

-Here, try my cap on. You can borrow it if you like.

-Wow! Thanks, Will.

-Ola, everybody.

-ALL: Hello, Archie.

-Hey, Raggles. I like your cap.

-Will lent it to me.

Oh, I wish I had a cap like that to keep the sun out of my eyes. But...

Chameleons do not usually wear clothes.

I don't see why not.

-I can make you a cap.

-You could?

-Just like this one?

-Exactly the same, only smaller.

-It won't take me long.

-Fantastico! Thank you, Holly.

Hey, catch!

Oh, I do still wish I were taller, though. But...

I have an idea how I can be! Come with me, Rosie.

Wow, Raggles! You are much taller now.

I know. It's amazing, isn't it?

Er...I suppose so.

I love being tall. I can see so much more from up here.

Look out!

Whoa! Ah!

Oh...

Maybe walking on stilts isn't the best way to become taller.

No, you could be right. But I've got another idea.

-What are you doing?

-I'm... stretching...to make myself taller.

So, what do you think, Bluebird?

You're just as short as you always are.

Oh. I was hoping to be taller.

What you need is some magic. I know just the spell.

-Really?

-Yes.

Let's measure your height, now.

Now, close your eyes...

BLUEBIRD GIGGLES

Alacazama cazama cazor. Make my friend Raggles ever so tall!

Oooh! I think I can feel it working.

Am I taller? Am I?

-No.

-Oh...

I mean, not yet.

It's a slow-acting spell. You just have to wait.

Hmmm, I think I need help from someone who's already

very tall and big. He might have some top tips.

Squawk!

-What do you think of Archie's cap?

-That's wonderful, Holly.

You are clever. It's looks just like Will's, only smaller.

-Archie will love it.

-Thanks, Rosie. I do hope so.

-I was about to go and see Oakley. Do you want to come?

-OK.

I'll leave the cap here and take it to Archie later.

# Diddly-dee, diddly-diddly-dee... #

GASPS

Will's cap! I'll try it on.

If the cap fits.

It does not fit, but I bet I still look cool like Will.

Oh, yes! Archie, you look... Whoa!

Eh-oh?

Hello? Hello? Did someone turn the lights out?

# Dum-de-dum, dum-de-dum... #

Big Bear? How did you get to be so...

well, big?

I don't know, Raggles.

Maybe it's because I eat lots of healthy green things

like spinach and broccoli.

-Would you some?

-Ooh, yes, please! Mmm!

-Milk?

-Ooh, yes, thank you.

Maybe you're so tall

-because you drink your milk from a tall glass.

-Maybe.

This should work.

-RAPS:

-# First of all, I was ever so small,

# Couldn't see over the lowest of walls.

# But my friends all heard my call, now I'm going to be big and tall. #

Hello? Anyone home? Rosie?

Oh, I was wondering where Will's cap had got to.

Huh? This doesn't seem to fit any more.

HE GASPS

I'm enormous. I must be.

Wahey! I've grown! Rosie! Rosie!

Look, look! I've turned into a giant!

See how small Will's cap looks now.

It must have been the stretching, or the milk in the tall glass,

or even Bluebird's magic trick.

HOLLY GIGGLES

Or... Or...

I'm not a giant, am I?

-No.

-I haven't grown at all, have I?

-Sorry, Raggles.

That's the cap I made for Archie.

Never mind, Raggles. I used to be short. Like the little acorns, here.

-Wee! Wahey! Hee-hee!

-Oh!

It's OK, Oakley.

I'll never be big and tall like you. It's fine.

Quick! Help! Come quickly!

-Archie's fallen down here.

-ARCHIE: Down the gap!

-And he can't get out.

-I'm stuck.

-Poor Archie.

-No, it's quite fun down here.

There's a cool echo. Ooh (ooh).

But you can't stay down there for ever.

Don't worry, Archie, I'll get you out.

Oh, no! I'm too big and I can't reach down.

Me neither, that's why I came for help.

I'm too big, as well.

Oh, it looks a bit scary down there.

Let me try.

I might be small enough to squeeze in. Or part of me, at least.

Nearly there, Archie!

Hold on to my foot.

ALL: Well done! Yay!

Raggles, my hero! The only one who could save me.

I suppose being small isn't so bad. I like being the way I am.

I like you the way you are, too.

Thanks for letting me borrow your cap, Will.

-And this is for you, Archie.

-Thank you, Holly.

I think I will save it for special occasions.

I like being just the way I am, too.

ALL LAUGH

Rosie, I've decided I'm really happy being small.

That's funny, because you're actually very tall, now.

Am I? How come?

-Look!

-Wow! Look at me, I'm a giant! Woo-hoo!

THEY LAUGH
