I got fancy at the end.

Well friends, let's go see what Moby's going to share with us today.

(upbeat music) - I was just reading about avocados.

They are a dark green pear-shaped fruit with a large seed in the middle.

Avocados, grow on tall trees where it's warm all year round, like in countries of Mexico and Peru, and in the United States, like California and Hawaii.

Often, avocados are mashed up and mixed with lime juice and salt.

And sometimes other ingredients, to make a sauce called guacamole.

Have you ever tried guacamole?

So good.

I wonder what avocados with bird seeds taste like.

Oh, I could add that to it.

I think I will.

(upbeat music) - I can't wait to smush this up later after the show.

Well, friends this time for today's three sentence story: beginning, middle, end.

And the three words they come from you, friends.

I'm going to write a story.

Now I love nouns.

Share with us a person, place, or thing, and I'll do my best to write a story.

Now these are always rough drafts.

That's how I get started!

In the first sentence I'll set the scene.

In the second sentence there is a problem, no!

but don't worry friends, because in the third sentence, there is a solution.

That's my favorite part!

Now, these stories are often silly, and that's kind of the point, it's just starting by having fun, and sometimes they could be mysterious.

They could be action.

They could be anything.

So, in the first sentence, like I said, I'll set the scene.

Siblee: "bench".

I love it.

Thanks, friend.

Okay.

"Bench".

Here we go.

This morning, I was sitting on a bench, enjoying the clouds floating by.

That sounds pretty peaceful.

Maybe I'm in a park.

Who knows where the bench is, right?

The picture, the wimage can tell us where, more details are in the image.

Okay.

So, I'm on a bench and I'm enjoying the clouds going by.

Oh man, that sounds such a lovely start to the story, but oh, no!

there's a problem!

Avocado tree.

Okay.

Oh, I got, I got the problem.

Okay?

here we go.

I was sitting on a bench this morning, watching the clouds float by.

I noticed at the avocado tree, there were no avocados left!

I planned to make some fresh guacamole, but the avocado tree... all the avocados are gone.

They've been eaten.

What do I do?

How do I make guacamole?

There's no avocados.

Friends, we need a solution!

Oh, "book".

All right, The solution, I love this, The solution lies in a book.

All right.

Let me think.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay, here we go.

I was sitting on a bench, looking up and watching the clouds float by.

I noticed in the avocado tree, the avocados were gone!

To make my guacamole today, I found my magic book, and out came delicious guacamole.

Friends.

Do you have one of those magic books?

They can make anything.

Now, some of these stories, when the solutions get solved, it's very, very tangible, like real life.

Sometimes it's just silly!

And in this case it was a magic, a magic book that made guacamole.

Friends, Let's go to the Grandville Wimage's Lab to see what Brody's been doing, creating today's wimage.

Hi, Brody!

- Hi, Wimee, hi friends.

Hey, Wimee, how much guacamole have you had this year?

- Oh, Let me think this through, how many pounds of guacamole?

Okay.

Well, I had some last week, I had some three, two weeks ago, and then on my sandwich I had done and I'm thinking, okay, (inaudible), I'm going to generalize.

I think in forms of pounds, I really like guacamole, So I think I've had 20 pounds.

- Well, the average person usually has eight pounds a year.

- That makes sense!

Because when it comes to guacamole, I tell you, I'm not average.

I, I Excel with guacamole.

I love it.

So, Eight pounds though?

Wow.

That's amazing.

That's awesome.

I love that you've researched that and found that out.

Thanks Brody.

So what do you think?

What have you got for today's wimage?

- [Brody] All right.

So, I have you admiring the clouds.

And then avocado tree without any avocados.

And the book with avocado (inaudible).

- [Wimee] There it is, I Love it!

Oh man.

I love the colors.

The shapes.

I love how I'm on a bench right there, it's right in the foreground and the trees, man.

Thanks Brody.

Friends, today we get to find out how to say today's words in Spanish.

It's time for Language Explorers with Miss Sara.

- Hi, Miss Sara!

- Hi, Wimee!

- How many pounds would you eat in a year?

Do you think?

- Oh, you know, not only guacamole but I eat avocado just as, you know, I just open the avocado and I eat it.

So, does that count?

- Yeah, I think so.

- Because, you know, when you eat it it kinda becomes guacamole.

I think I also exceed.

- Right?

Man, I just love it, you can't go wrong with a good avocado.

- Yup.

Yup.

They're wonderful.

So where I come from, which is the country of Ecuador, there is no seasons because it's right in the equator.

So we don't, we have, you can have the four seasons at the same day, cause we're in the Andes.

So up there in the mountain and that's where avocados grow.

So I'm excited to tell you some things about it, but let's start with the first word.

- Okay.

The first word.

- The first word is "bench".

First word is bench.

And in Spanish you say: (speaks in foreign language).

- [Wimee] I like it, (speaks in foreign language).

- So I was, I was seating in a (speaks in foreign language).

- [Wimee] Nice!

The drawing you drew: I want to go sit on that (speaks in foreign language), looks cozy.

- Oh, nice (speaks in foreign language), right?

- [Wimee] Yeah.

- The second words or, you know, it's "avocado tree" and the avocado tree, in Spanish, you would say: (speaks in foreign language).

So, (speaks in foreign language) has the word (speaks in foreign language).

And (speaks in foreign language) means avocado.

- [Wimee] Nice.

- Can you say (speaks in foreign language)?

- [Wimee] (speaks in foreign language).

- (speaks in foreign language).

And I wanted to show you the (speaks in foreign language) because it is a very easy-to-climb tree, the avocado tree.

There's females and males avocado trees.

You gotta have both in order to have avocados, otherwise, you just have the tree.

And the avocado tree is so easy to climb because the, the, the, as you can see there, that I draw one, the branches go like that, like almost horizontal, is so fun to climb the tree.

You gotta, someday you gotta try it.

- I would love to!

That's like the perfect climbing tree, right?

- Yes, it is the perfect climbing tree.

And the last word, is the word, is a word that we have translated before.

Is the word "book": (speaks in foreign language).

- [Wimee] (speaks in foreign language).

(both speak in foreign language).

So, those are your three words for today.

- [Wimee] I love it.

- I wanna have all of them here, in no particular order.

- [Wimee] Oh!

They there are!

Yep!

I love it.

Oh, man.

I want that book.

That (speaks in foreign language), the magic book.

How would you say "magic book"?

Magical book.

- It's (speaks in foreign language).

So you can have, you can have a bench under an avocado tree, and sit there with a good (speaks in foreign language), and I think you will have a nice story too.

- That's awesome.

I love it.

Miss Sara, thank you so much for today's words!

Man, oh man.

I love it.

So fun.

All right.

Well friends, it's time for Jim Time.

(rock music) ♪ Why didn't I buy more avocados?

♪ Oh, I'm so sad.

I was just singing, I ran out.

I ran out of guacamole and I've still got chips, you know?

Like, did ever happen you have, like, more chips than you do guacamole?

And then you just have plain chips and you're like: Now what am I gonna do?

I found this.

I was like I said, it was like, oh, I found it, it's a shaker egg.

I thought it was a little avocado on the counter, but it was a shaker egg.

Anyway.

So, you know, how are you doing, Wimee?

How are you doing, friends?

How's everybody doing today?

- Good, good, good.

I'm thinking about that little avocado egg.

- I know, I was excited.

I was like: Hey, wait!

And then it heard it.

And I went: Oh, it went bad.

And then I went: Oh, it didn't go bad, it's a shaker egg.

I don't know.

Anyway, you know, one of my favorite combos is guacamole and chips.

So I was thinking we can go to the grocery store.

I want everyone at home to think of what's your favorite combination of two foods.

And what's your favorite food combo too, and we'll go to the grocery store.

Well friends let's see Siblee, that funny Siblee.

He's always got a joke for us.

Let's find out what joke he's got today.

(kids cheering) - What did the avocado half said to the other avocado half?

- I don't know.

- Without you, I feel empty inside.

(Siblee laughs) (kids cheering) - That's all about the insides.

There's a pit.

And then one side's got the pit and the other doesn't have.

Okay.

Hot sauce and chips.

Yep.

Avocado and cream.

Yeah!

That's sounds so good.

Oh man.

I love it.

Let's see.. we got our joke.

We got our song.

Oh, guess what friends?

We've got a song to share with you today by our good friends, Hamlet and Alina.

This song.

Guess what it's called?

It's called: Guacamole!

And I got to tell you first: I've been singing this song since like the day I heard it I've been singing it all the time and I've tried so hard throughout this show not to sing it.

And I didn't!

Because I wanted to, I wanted to let it debut here with them singing it.

So, friends, here we go.

Let's have Hamlet and Alina lead us in the song.

Their song: Guacamole!

(acoustic guitar plays) - [Alina] Hey, Hamlet, do you have the cilantro?

- [Hamlet] (speaks in a foreign language) - [Alina] I think that's it, we got salt, lime, let's do this.

- [Hamlet] OK, (speaks in a foreign language).

And she's got some Cuban heritage and man, oh man!

So fun.

So fun.

Okay.

I got to stay focused now, we did our song.

Friends, We love books.

We do love books.

Let's check out what Joanne's got to share for today's Check Out This Book.

(upbeat music) - Hi everybody.

It's Joanne from the Kent District library and the Bookmobile.

I found an Ebook called "Guacamole".

It is a cooking poem, but it's also bilingual.

So it's in both English and Spanish.

So you can read the text in both languages, side by side.

And the words are by Jorge Argueta, and it's illustrated or the pictures are by Margarita Sada.

And all stages there's a little section in here that talks about the recipe that's in the poem, that all stages of the recipe should be done with an adult or caregivers help, especially for our young friends who might be preschoolers and not using knives to cut the avocados and things like that.

But, this wonderful book just talks about how to make a favorite grandmother's recipe of guacamole.

And so, you start out, and this little girl in the story, she's pictured here, really wants to just make this treat for her family.

And so every step of the way she tells you what she's doing and how to make it.

And at the end, her family enjoys it.

And there's no guacamole left.

(upbeat music) - There are so many great places to get guacamole.

You can make it yourself, go to a restaurant, visit with friends.

How about going to a Mexican Fiesta?

That's exactly what Moby did recently.

It's time for On The Road With Moby.

♪ Anything is possible ♪ ♪ Anything at all ♪ ♪ Anything is possible ♪ ♪ We just can do it all ♪ - This is such a good day for a road trip.

- [Moby] I got to go down to the Mexican Fiesta at Calder Plaza in grand rapids, Michigan.

I had so much great food, oh, man.

I put guacamole on everything cause it's so delicious.

I want to go back soon.

I wanna have a fiesta every day.

That would be so awesome.

A fiesta every day.

(sings in foreign language) I love dancing to the music.

I love being entertained by clowns.

I love air balloons.

(sings in foreign language) (sings in foreign language) (sings in foreign language) (sings in foreign language) I got to come back with my family and friends.

We can do some shopping, so many great clothes.

Artwork.

Dolls.

Toys.

Oh man.

I love the colors, the fabrics, so bright and vibrant.

I just love it so much.

Friends.

I have to come down to another Mexican Fiesta soon!

Join me.

- We're at the end of the show friends, we gotta go, it's time for the dance party.

We hope you've been having fun.

Let's get dancing everybody.

Oh, Miss Sarah's gotta go.

She's got places to go.

There's little Brody, thanks too!

Jim!

Friends at home: thanks so much!

Man, oh man!
