I like gardens.

It's fun to watch things grow.

Yes, it is, little bear.

That's a fat carrot, mother bear.

I got one too.

You did.

Can I have my own garden?

Of course.

Let's see.

How about right here?

My own garden.

What would you like to grow?

I want to grow tomatoes, potatoes, carrots, beans, lettuce,

peas.

How about sunflowers?

Sunflowers?

Do they grow big?

Very big and much taller than you.

And do they grow fast?

Very fast.

Now here are some seeds.

You must plant them carefully.

Dig a few small holes, put a seed in each one,

cover them with dirt, and don't forget to water them.

OK.

Dig some holes, put a seed in each one,

and cover them with dirt.

I'll tell you a secret.

If you want your sunflowers to grow big and healthy,

you should talk to them.

What do I say to them?

Whatever you like.

They're very good listeners.

I hope you liked your water.

It's nice and warm out here.

Hi, little bear.

Huh?

Who are you talking to?

Hello, no feet.

I'm talking to my sunflower seeds.

Mother Bear says they will grow big and tall if I talk to them.

Really?

Come on, sunflowers.

Come out and grow.

Grow as tall as you can.

Nothing much seems to be happening.

I don't know why.

Maybe they're not listening to me.

Maybe they're resting, which isn't a bad idea.

I wish these seeds would hurry up and grow.

Yep.

A very nice day for an app.

Come on, sunflowers.

Wake up.

It's time to grow.

Huh?

Oh.

There you are, sunflower.

Mother Bear said you would come out if I talk to you.

No feet.

Look.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

What is it, little bear?

My sunflower.

Isn't it beautiful?

Boy.

That was fast.

You see?

All you see?

All you have to do is talk to them.

Write sunflower.

Whoa.

Look.

No feet.

I can see my house.

I think this is going to be the biggest sunflower ever.

Whoa.

I think this is going to be the biggest sunflower ever.

I think this is going to be the biggest sunflower ever.

I think this is going to be the biggest sunflower ever.

I think this is going to be the biggest sunflower ever.

I think this is going to be the biggest sunflower ever.

Whoa.

Is it still growing?

Oh yes.

I think we're almost as high as the clouds.

Then stop talking to it.

Have we stopped growing yet?

I think so.

Where are we, little bear?

I think we're on top of a cloud.

I've never been on top of a cloud before.

It's like walking on big pillows.

Very soft.

Whoa.

Wait.

Oh.

Wow.

This looks just like your garden, little bear.

Mother bear would love to see this garden.

There's tomatoes and carrots and potatoes and--

And delicious peas.

Mm.

Everything looks so good.

I wonder if anybody ever talks to them.

Don't do it, little bear.

And don't start talking to these plants, OK?

Hm.

Hello, peas.

Whoa.

Did you see that?

No feet.

These plants really listen.

Hey, I can't eat them when they're this big.

Hello, tomato.

Look at that.

That's the biggest tomato I've ever seen.

That is a big tomato, all right.

Grow potato.

Grow as big as you can.

What wonderful potatoes.

They're huge.

Who could ever eat that much potato?

Grow carrots.

Grow as big as you can.

Oof.

This is the most amazing garden I've ever seen.

Did mother bear ever tell you how

to make them stop growing, little bear?

Maybe you should try telling them not to grow.

OK.

Thank you very much, all of you, for growing so much.

But you can all stop growing now.

I think that's enough growing for right now.

Whoa.

I don't like this.

Stop growing.

Stop.

Do you hear me?

I think they hear you, little bear.

But they're not listening.

Let's get out of here.

Oh.

Little bear, little bear, you better come inside.

Yes, mother bear, I'm coming.

Ooh.

I have to go inside, no feat.

It's starting to rain.

OK, little bear, see you later.

Your garden will get lots of water now, little bear.

It's hard waiting for your plants to grow, isn't it?

Oh, I don't mind.

Those plants can take as long as they like.

What do you want to play now, Emily?

I don't know, little bear.

What do you want to play?

I know I'll be father bear and you be mother bear and Lucy can be little bear.

Lucy can't be little bear.

Your little bear.

It's just pretend.

Besides, we can't be married.

Why not?

Because I'm a princess, a princess, and princesses can only marry a prince.

OK, I'll be a prince then.

A prince has to be very brave.

I'm very brave, and a prince has to go on adventures, very dangerous adventures.

I am Prince Little Bear, and I love dangerous adventures.

Well, only a king can make you a real prince.

Well then, I'll ask the king.

Who?

What king?

The king.

Me?

Oh, me, right, I am the king.

Yes, well, what can I, the king, do for you, my loyal subjects?

For royal highness, I want to become a prince.

I see, then you must fulfill a quest.

What's a quest?

A dangerous adventure.

Yes, a very dangerous adventure.

What dangerous adventure?

I'm going on a dangerous adventure so that I can become a prince and marry a princess.

Doc, are you all right?

I'm a beautiful princess, and I've fallen under an evil spell.

Doc, I'm the princess.

How come Emily always gets to be the princess?

What about my dangerous adventure?

You must find a pot of gold.

And where will I find this pot of gold?

Up the steepest mountain, through the deepest forest, and into the darkest cave.

There awaits the pot of gold that's guarded by an evil fire-breathing dragon.

I can be the dragon.

Here is a magic walking stick that will help you find the way.

But here's something to remember me by.

What if I get hungry on my dangerous adventure?

Well, here's a cookie from Lucy.

Thanks.

Up the steepest mountain, through the deepest forest.

Who goes there?

What's me?

Him.

Oh, I thought it was the giant fire-breathing dragon who has stolen the king's pot of gold.

Do I look like a dragon to you?

No, I guess not.

Maybe you're a witch?

A beautiful witch?

That's better.

How beautiful.

A very beautiful.

I am the very beautiful witch of the forest.

Well, good-bye, beautiful witch.

That's it?

I don't cast a spell or anything.

Sorry.

I have to find the fire-breathing dragon.

Up the steepest mountain, through the deepest forest, who goes there?

Who goes where?

Are you the giant fire-breathing dragon who has stolen the king's pot of gold?

No.

Who are you supposed to be?

I'm going to be a prince when I finish this dangerous adventure.

Okay, then.

I'm a poor old beggar who is too tired to walk.

Can you help me?

Prince has always helped poor old beggars.

I guess you could take my walking stick.

Thanks.

Where does this giant fire-breathing dragon live?

Up the steepest mountain, through the deepest forest, and in the darkest cave.

That sounds scary.

I think I'll just stick around here.

Goodbye, brave little bear.

Goodbye.

Up the steepest mountain, through the- Uh-oh.

The darkest cave.

Hello in there.

I've come in for the royal pot of gold.

It's the dragon.

Doc, I told you I should play the dragon.

Well, I guess I can't be a prince.

Hen, why are you wearing my necklace?

Little bear gave it to me to make me feel beautiful.

And he gave me his walking stick to help me walk.

I gave two to the cookie because she was hungry.

Well, half of it.

Kneel, little bear.

For all the good deeds you have done, I hereby decree you, Prince, little bear.

You have a heart of gold, Prince, little bear.

I do.

I am.

Prince, little bear.

Yay!

Now will you marry me, Princess Emily?

I would, but it's getting late, and I promised Granny I'd be home before dark.

Okay, maybe tomorrow.

Sure.

Goodbye, everybody.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

I'm a beautiful princess, and I fought up as Prince little bear.

I'll climb the steepest mountain through the deepest forest into the darkest cave.

Oops.

Sorry.

Mother bear, can you fix these?

Of course, little bear.

What are you going to paint?

I don't know yet.

Hello, Emily.

Hello, little bear.

Hi, Tutu.

Want to paint a picture with me, Emily?

I can't, little bear.

I promised Granny I would help her pick peaches.

Oh.

But I was hoping Tutu could stay here with you.

She loves peaches so much.

She eats them as fast as we pick them.

Of course, Tutu can stay.

What's that, Lucy?

You're right.

You might get all dirty picking peaches.

Can't you stay with you, too?

She can stay.

I'll see you soon.

Come on.

Hmm, what should I paint?

I know.

Now, Tutu, you sit here while I paint a picture of Lucy.

It will be a nice surprise for Emily.

Hey.

You have to sit up, Lucy.

There.

Now, let's see how you look.

Perfect.

Lucy, what are you doing down there?

Oh.

Sorry about your web.

Look, you have to sit very still.

I know.

Close pins.

Okay, Lucy.

Hey, where's Lucy?

Lucy, where are you?

Here you are.

You've got to stop running off.

I almost painted Tutu by mistake.

Oh, I have to get my paints.

Tutu, I'm counting on you to look out for Lucy.

I'm going to paint a picture of her in the chair.

Ow.

Ow.

Ow.

Tutu, what happened?

Lucy, you're dripping wet.

Oh, oh.

Oh.

Really?

Uh-huh.

Oh.

All right, all right.

Never mind.

I'll just have to paint Lucy wet.

I'll start with your hair.

Little Bear, can you help me for a minute?

Sure.

Tutu, you better come with me.

We don't want any more accidents.

Oh, dear Lucy, what happened to you?

Why don't we hang these clothes in the line to dry?

That's got it.

Thanks for your help, Little Bear.

You're welcome.

I've got to get back to my painting now.

Lucy, where are your clothes?

Hi, Little Bear.

I brought you a peach.

Oh, no.

What's happened to Lucy?

Where's her dress and her bonnet?

I don't know.

I hung them on the clothes line to dry.

But how did they get wet?

I'm not sure.

Do you think the clothes were dry yet?

They're still a little bit damp.

But Lucy won't mind.

I wanted to surprise you with a picture of Lucy.

Well, now that I'm here, maybe you can paint my picture too.

Okay.

All right, Tutu, you can be in the picture too.

That's perfect.

There.

Finished.

Can we look now?

Yes.

Come look.

What a beautiful picture, Little Bear.

Lucy thinks the peach looks good enough to eat.

All this painting has made me hungry.

Where's my peach?

Uh-oh.

Tutu.

I told you Tutu loves peaches.
