NARRATOR: On this fine day in Word World, Dog decided to throw a big party at his house, and all his WordFriends were invited.
Yep.
And Dog asked me to help him get ready for it.
NARRATOR: He did?
Mm-hmm.
He sure did, Mr. Narrator.
That's because I know how to throw the best parties ever.
I have quite the party reputation, you know.
(softly snoring) Oh, Dog!
I'm here.
Let's get this party started!

♪ (quacking) Yoo-hoo!
Okay, let's get the party stuff ready, Dog.
What do you got?
(whines) You know, party stuff.
What do you got?
Lay it on me.
You know, like the song.
♪ We're having a party ♪ Huh?
♪ Wearing something silly... ♪ Huh, do you have something silly to wear?
♪ Playing some fun games ♪ Uh-uh.
Huh?
♪ Eating yummy food ♪ Uh-uh.
♪ We'll dance to party music... ♪ (whines) Oh!
(quacks) You mean to say we've got all our WordFriends coming over for a party and you've got... nothing here to make a party?
(quacks) Come on, Dog.
You've got to have some party stuff around here somewhere.
Um... (barks, pants) (whines) A bone?
You can't have a party with just an old bone.
Oh...!
This is terrible!
We have nothing to make a party.
(gasps) (barks, pants) You have something?
Wait, what?
What?
Show me.
(barking) A box filled with the letter "H." What are we going to do with that?
(gasps) (whines) This isn't going to be the best party ever.
It's going to be the worst party ever.
(knocking on door) (gasps) Someone's here already.
Hi, Duck.
I'm here for Dog's party.
(screams) Oh, Sheep.
We're in trouble.
Oh, dear.
What's the matter?
All we have for the party is this box of letter "H's."
And we can't have a party with just the letter "H." (sighs, quacks) You have a box full of the letter "H"?
Then you don't have a problem at all.
Huh?
Huh?
"H" is a helpful, happy letter.
Listen to the sound it makes.
Ha-ha-ha.
Just like you're laughing.
Oh.
Uh... ha-ha-ha.
(laughs) (barks) (both laughing) Hey, Sheep, you're right.
But how are we going to make a party with the letter "H"?
I mean, we need silly stuff to wear, and, uh, games, and food.
Uh-huh, uh-huh.
(barking fanfare) Yeah, yeah, that's right, Dog.
And music, too.
We can't have a party without music.
Well, Duck, we can have all those things with the letter "H." Oh, I don't know about you, but I've never once been to any party where there isn't something silly to wear.
Hmm.
Don't worry, Duck.
We can make something silly to wear with the letter "H." Let's see.
What starts with the "huh" sound that you can wear on your head?
(softly growling) (pants, barks) Oh, yeah, Dog's right.
A hat.
I knew that.
Ha-ha... hat.
Yes.
Let's make some party hats.
Ha-ats.
KIDS: Hats!
Fantastic!
Ha-ha-hats.
(growls) Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I'm starting to get that party feelin'.
Here you go.
One for you, and one for you.

Games!
We don't have any games.
We can't have a party without games.
Oh!
I've got a party reputation to maintain.
Oh, Duck, don't worry.
All we need to do is use our happy letter "H." Games that start with a "Ha" sound.
Hmm.
I'm thinking.
I've got it!
What's more fun than... Huh?
...ha-ha-hula hoops?!
Hula hoops!
(whining) Yes!
Let's make some hoops.
Ha-oops.

(barks) ♪ Dog's having a party ♪ ♪ Wearing something silly ♪ ♪ Hats ♪ ♪ Playing some fun games ♪ ♪ Hoops ♪ ♪ Eating yummy food... ♪ Whoa, whoa, whoa!
(quacks) Food!
We don't have any food.
Last time I checked, you can't eat a letter "H." Oh, yuck.
"H" might be a happy letter, but it sure tastes ha-ha-horrible.
(sighs) We can't have a party without food!
Oh.
(quacks) Hmm.
How about we make... ha-ha... hotdogs!
Well, hotdogs start with the letter "H," and you can eat those.
Hotdogs?
I-I love hotdogs!
Uh-huh, uh-huh.
Mm-mmm.
Then let's build some.
Okay, I've got everything I need to make hotdogs.
Ha-ha-hotdogs.

Oh, what are we gonna do?
What are we gonna do?
What are we gonna do?
(barks) DUCK: Oh, my!
What are we...
huh?!
(barking fanfare) (barks) Of course, Dog.
We can make music using the letter "H." Oh, you're so clever, Dog.
No, no, don't tell me, don't tell me, let me think.
Ha-ha... horns!
We can make horns.
Good idea.
Horns are great for a party.

(barks, pants) Well, yes, I did help make this party great.
But I couldn't have done it without Sheep.
Oh, well, that's sweet.
But, really, I couldn't have done it without the letter "H." Hip, hip, hooray for the letter "H." ALL: Hip, hip, hooray!

NARRATOR: Early one morning in Word World, Dog... (sniffing) ...was sniffing around for something to do.
(sniffing) (barking) Hmm.
(insects buzzing) Ready, Bug?
Aw, you betcha, Bee.
Let's play B-A-L-L... B... all!
(Bug laughs) KIDS: Ball!
NARRATOR: That's right-- ball!
Now, that looks like fun.
Don't let it drop!
(barking and panting) NARRATOR: What's that you're doing with your ears?
Oh, you're making the shape of a ball.
(barking) (barks) (groans) NARRATOR: I'm sure they would love to play with you, too, but they're too far away to hear you, Dog.
(sad groan) Aha!
(panting, barking) (playful growling) NARRATOR: What are you doing, Dog?
(happy grunting) NARRATOR: Oh, I see!
You're going to make your own ball.
Good idea!
"Ball" does begin with the letter "B."
Now all you need are the other letters.
(curious groan) What's the matter, Dog?
(confused groan) Uh-oh.
No more letters.
DOG: Oh!
(happy grunting) NARRATOR: Where are you going, Dog?
(Dog panting, barking) NARRATOR: Oh, yes!
Maybe Pig has the letters you need.
Bonjour, mes amis!
Today on Cooking With Chef Pig we're making a bounty of beautiful breakfast foods!
(Dog barking, panting) (laughs): Well, what do you know!
It looks like we have a special guest today.
It's our old pal, Dog!
So, what can we do for you today?
(barks, pants) (laughs): Oh!
You have the letter "B."
And, um... you want me to, um, uh, bake some food with the "B"?
Uh-uh, uh-uh.
Well, you've chosen the right letter, Dog.
Because "B" is a great b-b-breakfast letter.
You can make b-b-bread.
Uh-uh.
B-B-B-Bananas.
Uh-uh.
(oinks) (whimpers) Oh, of course.
You want to make my favorite breakfast food.
A b-b-bagel.
KIDS: Bagel!
(laughs): That's right!
I like to call it my breakfast bracelet.
(growls disagreement) Uh... right, Dog.
A bagel is a circle.
Uh, I don't think that's what Dog wants, Pig.
Oh, sure it is.
You want a bagel, right, Dog?
(frustrated groan) Pig, you're not listening to Dog.
He's trying to tell you something.
Huh?
(excited growling) You want, uh, to... bounce, uh, with your bagel?
(laughs): Oh, of course.
You want to bounce with your bagel.
Bagels with a bounce.
Ooh, I like it.
How... do you... eat it?
(giggles) Don't bounce around so much.
I'm getting dizzy.
(moans) (groans) Oh, Pig!
(laughing) NARRATOR: Dog didn't seem to have much luck getting his friend Pig to listen to him.
(groans) Oh, keep trying, Dog.
(pants) Come on, this way!
(buzzing, barking) (panting) (sighs) (curious groan) (panting) Good idea, Dog.
Maybe Sheep can help you.
(whines, panting) (lullaby playing) (barks "hello") Shh!
You'll wake the baby.
(quiet growl) (panting) Oh, that's a nice letter "B," Dog.
What do you want to do with it?
Make a b-b-bib?
Or a b-b-binkie?
Well, there.
Mm-mm.
(sputters) When you do that with your ears, Dog, you look like a baby in a baby bonnet.
Uh-uh, uh-uh.
B-B-Baby bonnet.
Ooh, you want to pretend to be a b-b-baby?
(confused groan) And I'll...
I'll pretend to be your mommy.
(gulps) Aren't you the sweetest baby?
Goo, goo, goo, goo, goo.
(strained growling) Well, what's the matter, baby?
Are you hungry?
I'll bet you're hungry.
Don't cry, baby.
(groans) Mommy will make you a nice baby bottle.
KIDS: Bottle!
Oh...
Oh?!
That's right!
A nice baby bottle for my nice b-baby doggie.
(slurps) (sighs) (bawling) Oh, there.
There now, baby Dog.
(burps) What a good baby doggie.
Now it's time to change your diaper.
Huh?!
(barking, panting) Baby Dog?
B-B-B-Baby Dog?
Come back.
NARRATOR: Since she didn't understand what Dog wanted, he decided to ask Frog for help.
So, let me see if I have this right.
You want to do something that starts with the letter "B."
(barks) Uh-huh, uh-huh... Aha!
I know just what you want.
And I happen to have it right here.
Whoo-hoo!
(panting) Here we go.
KIDS: Bubble!
Yes.
B-B-Bubble.
Wow, that's a really big bubble.
Heads up, Dog!
Bubble coming your way.
(barks) Uh-oh.
Yeah, watch this move, Bee!
(buzzes, laughs) Wow, that looks cool!
(gentle growl) (barks and pants) (barks) NARRATOR: Be careful, Dog.
Remember, that bubble could easily pop.
Uh-oh.
(howling) (humming) Huh?
(howling) (grunts, chuckles) Hi, Dog.
(laughing) Don't!
That tickles!
Dog, are you all right?
We saw you fall from the sky!
(barks) Ah, he's fine, Frog.
(sighs) That's such a relief.
(howls) But I think he wants something.
I know.
He wants a bagel.
No, he wants a baby bottle.
I believe he wants a bubble.
Okay, Dog, what do you want?
(barks) Hmm, he wants something that starts with the letter B. Oh, he's making a circle with his ears.
So what he wants starts with a "B" and is round... Uh-huh, uh-huh.
Okay, and now he's bouncing.
So what he wants starts with a "B," is round and bounces.
Uh-huh, uh-huh.
Let's see, um... uh... B-b-ball!
(barking excitedly) Oh, a ball!
Oh, a ball!
Well, then Dog, now that we know what you want, I think it's time to... ALL: ...build a word!
♪ ♪ ♪ It's time to build a word ♪ ♪ Let's build it, let's build it now!

(all laughing) (buzzing) Hey, can we play ball with you guys?
Uh-huh.

(excited shouting) I've got it!
Yay, good one!
NARRATOR: That day, Dog and his friends learned that when you listen to one another, you can all have a ball.
The end.
