0:00:02 > 0:00:05# Come on and get on down to the city
0:00:05 > 0:00:08# Where the trains all clatter through
0:00:08 > 0:00:10# Hey! Look at that driver driving
0:00:10 > 0:00:12- # I want to ride that train of blue - Me too
0:00:12 > 0:00:15# I'm looking way up high to the windows
0:00:15 > 0:00:17# Take a peek for an inside view
0:00:17 > 0:00:20# All those people busy working
0:00:20 > 0:00:22# I want to see what they all do
0:00:22 > 0:00:25# Come on, let's weave around the market
0:00:25 > 0:00:28# Do you hear the hullabaloo?
0:00:28 > 0:00:31# Everybody's busy selling
0:00:31 > 0:00:33- # I wanna buy me something new - Me too
0:00:33 > 0:00:36# Look through the arches under the station
0:00:36 > 0:00:40# Down where the pigeons perch and coo
0:00:40 > 0:00:42# Take a taxi ride to the river
0:00:42 > 0:00:44# I wanna drive down the avenue
0:00:44 > 0:00:47# Hey, look at those buses gleaming
0:00:47 > 0:00:50# They look so clean and spanking new
0:00:50 > 0:00:52# All lined up to drive around the city
0:00:52 > 0:00:56- # Let me ting that bell - Ding, ding!
0:00:56 > 0:00:58# Going to ride on round to the school stop
0:00:58 > 0:01:01# Where the children hurry through
0:01:01 > 0:01:04# Sit down, the teacher's teaching
0:01:04 > 0:01:07- # I'd love to learn a thing or two- Me too
0:01:07 > 0:01:09# I love to skip in Riverseafingal
0:01:09 > 0:01:11# Riverseafingal, by the sea. #
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Seven o'clock.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18# Come on and get on down to the city
0:01:18 > 0:01:22- # Where the ferryboat sails are blue - Sails are blue
0:01:22 > 0:01:24# Time to call on Granny Murray
0:01:24 > 0:01:29# She'd love to say hello to you... #
0:01:29 > 0:01:32Me too!
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Hello, honeypie.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38Come away in and see who's at home today.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41# Granny Murray's house has two at home to play
0:01:41 > 0:01:43# Granny Murray's house is home to... #
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Who's here today?
0:01:45 > 0:01:48Well, we've got Ellie and we've got Sean.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52Don't just sit there, my wee boiled eggs.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54Come on, let's get moving.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58What's on Granny Murray's shelves today?
0:01:58 > 0:02:00Oh, a story book.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Have a wee seat.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06Well, this is the story of The Tortoise And The Hare.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10There were once two friends - a tortoise and a hare.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13The hare was always showing off his long legs.
0:02:13 > 0:02:18"I can run much faster than you," said the hare. "Oh, yeah?"
0:02:18 > 0:02:20said the tortoise.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23"On your marks, get set, go!"
0:02:23 > 0:02:27- Go!- The hare charged away and soon was out of sight,
0:02:27 > 0:02:31but the tortoise slowly plodded on. The hare was so far in front
0:02:31 > 0:02:35he decided to have a wee rest. So he lay down
0:02:35 > 0:02:38and fell fast asleep.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42But the tortoise just kept on plodding.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46When the hare woke up, he saw that the tortoise was just about to cross
0:02:46 > 0:02:51the finishing line. He tried to catch up, but it was too late.
0:02:51 > 0:02:55"You only won because I fell asleep," said the hare.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58"Oh, yeah?" said the tortoise.
0:02:58 > 0:02:59Ha-ha-ha!
0:02:59 > 0:03:05Well, we've got Ellie and Sean, but someone's missing from home today.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11Ah, not any more. Who's coming home to Granny Murray?
0:03:11 > 0:03:15Oh, yes, it's Rebecca with Mickey John.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Hello there.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21Hello, Mickey John.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Hello, sweet cheeks.
0:03:25 > 0:03:29- What have you been up to? - We've been reading a story book.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Oh, what story is it?
0:03:31 > 0:03:35- The Tortoise And The Hare. - Oh, that's a belter!
0:03:35 > 0:03:39- Good old plodding tortoise. - Let's do something new.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42Why not dress Claude up as a hoppy hare?
0:03:42 > 0:03:44And I'll race you to the chairs.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Am I the tortoise or the...
0:03:46 > 0:03:49hare? Looks like I'm the tortoise.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Blub, blub, blub.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53- I won.- And I'm last, oh!
0:03:53 > 0:03:58You know, I really want to encourage the children to read more.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01There's so many adventures to read about.
0:04:01 > 0:04:06I'm having a book sale at school today for the children and parents
0:04:06 > 0:04:09to raise money and encourage them to read more.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Where are you getting your books?
0:04:11 > 0:04:15I've asked everyone to look on their bookshelves
0:04:15 > 0:04:19and if they have two of the same book they can give it to the sale.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21Very clever.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Hold on a second.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26Now, let me see.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Ah, The Railway Children...
0:04:29 > 0:04:32and, oh, those two there.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34- Oh, fantastic!- And this one too.
0:04:34 > 0:04:39- There you are. Take them all. - That's great, Granny Murray.
0:04:39 > 0:04:44When I worked in the department store, when we did a stock-take,
0:04:44 > 0:04:48the manager always said, "Spread it out and show it off."
0:04:48 > 0:04:52- That way, you could see how many of everything we had.- Well,
0:04:52 > 0:04:57I know something you don't have two of. Claude - you've only one of him.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Ha-ha-ha!
0:04:59 > 0:05:04- Oh, don't go running off anywhere, Claude.- Or go racing tortoises.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06I'd better be off.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Oh, thank you.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11It's a badge. "I love books."
0:05:11 > 0:05:15Thank you, sweetheart. Have fun with Granny Murray.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Come on, Mickey John.
0:05:21 > 0:05:22Now remember,
0:05:22 > 0:05:26spread it out and show it off.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Thanks, Granny Murray. See you later.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32- Bye-bye, my darling. We'll be thinking of you.- Me too!
0:05:32 > 0:05:37Keep a wee eye on Mickey John, make sure he goes the right way to work.
0:05:39 > 0:05:45Oh, I don't have much time. How can I speed across the river to work?
0:05:45 > 0:05:47HOOTER BLARES That's right. Thanks.

0:06:01 > 0:06:05# Splashing-splashing-splashing through the waves
0:06:05 > 0:06:08# Winding, winding, winding drives the speed up
0:06:08 > 0:06:11# Chugga-chugga-chugga slows us down
0:06:11 > 0:06:14# Rocking rocking rocking Splashing splashing splashing
0:06:14 > 0:06:14# To our stop
0:06:16 > 0:06:19# I'm in-in-in-in a hurry
0:06:19 > 0:06:22# I need-need-need-need to speed to work

0:06:56 > 0:07:01- Got any favourites?- Yes, adventure stories, like Treasure Island,
0:07:01 > 0:07:05with Long John Silver. "A-ha, Jim lad, there be treasure here!"

0:07:09 > 0:07:12Yes, Aladdin and his flying carpet.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Hop on.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17- Whee!- Whee!
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Wow, the desert goes on for miles and miles!
0:07:20 > 0:07:24Wow, I can see the sultan's palace from here, all made of gold!
0:07:24 > 0:07:29I hope I can pick up some great books at your book sale.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32I'm sure you will, Raymond. My class will be here soon.
0:07:32 > 0:07:37- Could you put those books in the cloakroom?- Yes. Bye now.- Bye.
0:07:37 > 0:07:41Ah, your "I love books" badge is perfect, Rebecca.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44I wonder what you're up to.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46# I love to skip in Riverseafingal
0:07:46 > 0:07:49# Riverseafingal by the sea
0:07:49 > 0:07:52# I love to skip in Riverseafingal
0:07:52 > 0:07:55# Riverseafingal, that's for me. #
0:07:55 > 0:08:01I reckon these posters will let everyone know about our toy sale.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04Let's stick them up. That's good, isn't it?
0:08:04 > 0:08:09But I don't think we'll earn much with this dribble of toys.
0:08:09 > 0:08:15- Do you?- No.- Why don't we go inside and find more toys to raise money
0:08:15 > 0:08:18for your dad's library fund?
0:08:22 > 0:08:25What are you doing now, Daddy?
0:08:25 > 0:08:28- Does anybody here love books?- I do!
0:08:28 > 0:08:32- What have you got there, Rudi? - A pile of audio books.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35I've listened to them and need new ones.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39- D'you want them for your book sale? - Thanks.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42You might find new ones at the book sale.
0:08:42 > 0:08:47- Would you leave them in the cloakroom for me?- No problem. See you later.

0:10:41 > 0:10:44Oh, sandwiches!
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Have I come at a bad moment?
0:10:47 > 0:10:51- No, not at all, Tina. Come in.- I've brought books for the book sale.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54I'm really excited about it.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33Good girl.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36- What about Mr Piggy? Oink! Oink! - Yeah.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39Put him in the box. That's the way.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53- Oh!- Ooh! Dr Doolittle?
0:11:53 > 0:11:55- What's going on?- Mickey John,
0:11:55 > 0:12:00you could cause an accident with those books in the corridor.
0:12:00 > 0:12:05- Oh, dear! I'm sorry, Dr Juno. - Never mind. Where did my book go?
0:12:05 > 0:12:08- Is this it?- Yeah, that's my spare copy of Dr Doolittle.
0:12:08 > 0:12:12- It's for your book sale.- Thank you. - You're welcome.
0:12:12 > 0:12:17But we should move those books in here in case someone tumbles.
0:12:17 > 0:12:18Right you are.
0:12:31 > 0:12:35Ah, right. That's all the books in. Book sale starts soon.
0:12:35 > 0:12:39Look at all the books I've got. I hope I sell them all.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Can I be your first customer?
0:12:41 > 0:12:45The book sale starts at 2pm. OK. What book are you looking for?
0:12:45 > 0:12:49- Have you got The Little Grey Rabbit? - I think I saw that somewhere.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55I've got it somewhere. The Little Grey Rabbit.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57I can't wait any longer, Mickey John.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59How about The Big Pink Elephant?
0:12:59 > 0:13:03No, sorry. Look, I've got to go. My patients are waiting.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06- Bye!- Wait a minute, I'll find it in a minute.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Oh, dear! Bang goes my first customer.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13Oh, hang on a minute. If Dr Juno can't find the book she wants,
0:13:13 > 0:13:16how will my other customers manage?
0:13:16 > 0:13:20I've got piles of books and no way of telling what they are.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23I'm not at all ready. Where did the time go?
0:13:23 > 0:13:26At 7 o'clock, I dropped Rebecca off at Granny Murray's.
0:13:26 > 0:13:31She'd been reading the children a story - The Tortoise And The Hare.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34The children dressed Claude up as a hare. I told Granny Murray
0:13:34 > 0:13:39all about my book sale and she gave me some books to sell.
0:13:39 > 0:13:44At 8 o'clock, I got to work. Raymond dropped off a pile of books.
0:13:44 > 0:13:48He described the books he liked to read. They sounded fantastic.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52At 9 o'clock, Rudi brought round audio books for the sale.
0:13:52 > 0:13:57Then he added his books to the pile as the bell went and my class came.
0:13:57 > 0:14:0212 o'clock, my class went for lunch, and Tina arrived with more books.
0:14:02 > 0:14:06She explained about a book she'd read when she was little
0:14:06 > 0:14:08about a magic faraway tree.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12At one o'clock, a book flew into the classroom.
0:14:12 > 0:14:16Dr Juno nearly tripped over the books outside.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18So we moved them all into the classroom.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21Dr Juno wanted to be my first customer,
0:14:21 > 0:14:23but I couldn't find the book she wanted.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26She had to go to work without it.
0:14:26 > 0:14:30How will anyone find the book they want among these big piles?
0:14:30 > 0:14:35Now, remember, spread it out and show it off.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38Spread it out and show it off. Of course!
0:14:38 > 0:14:42Instead of leaving the books piled up, I should spread them out
0:14:42 > 0:14:47and show them off. Then the customers will know what they're buying.
0:14:47 > 0:14:48It's a race against time!
0:14:48 > 0:14:51# I gotta do it I gotta do it
0:14:51 > 0:14:53# I gotta beat the clock before the chime
0:14:53 > 0:14:56# I gotta sort it I gotta sort it
0:14:56 > 0:14:58# I gotta do the job on time
0:14:58 > 0:15:01# Like a busy bee I'm gonna beat that bong
0:15:01 > 0:15:04# I'm gonna finish this job before I finish this song
0:15:04 > 0:15:06# Do we think he's gonna do it?
0:15:06 > 0:15:09# Do the job that needs to be done?
0:15:09 > 0:15:11# Will he know how to fix it?
0:15:11 > 0:15:13# Will he finish what he has begun?
