sun is really hot, and there's no shade!
Do you have any extra hats, Cat, or beach umbrellas?
'Fraid not.
Oh, my poor sensitive scales!
I'll get a fin burn.
Maybe we could make some shade.
Great idea!
Uh, how are we gonna do that?
No problem, my friend Fish.
Shade is coming your way!
Perfect!
Thank you, Cat!
But you can't stand there forever.
Hmm, I hadn't thought of that.
Maybe we could build a shelter to protect us from the sun!
Excellent idea.
First, we need stuff to build it with.
Yes!
Materials!
Uh, like what?
Guess we'll just have to see what things we can find.
Ooh, thing finding, what fun!
On your marks, get set, find!
(Laughing) Ah, perfect!
(Rattling) Ahh!
(Laughing) Ooh!
We found lots of materials.
Look at Nick's nifty sticks!
Ah!
They're nice and strong.
Yes, but they're not wide enough to make much shade.
Your big leaves are shady.
Oops!
They're shady, alright, but not strong enough to stand up.
Ah!
I found seaweed!
It isn't strong or shady, but it does make a lovely swish when I dance the hula.
(Sally laughing) And I found these round things.
They might be good for something.
What if we combine our materials to build a shelter?
What do you have in mind?
Well, it could look like this.
We can use my strong sticks to make it stand up.
And my big leaves to make it shady!
And these round things for... Hmm, I don't know what.
Now, that is what I call a great design.
If only we had something long and stringy to hold everything together.
Hmm.
(Gasping) We do!
Cat!
Look!
We do?
Ah, we do!
How clever.
Well, what are we waiting for?
One shady shelter coming up!
♪ That is the prettiest shelter I've ever seen!
Let's try it out and see if it works.
Last one in is a hot jellyfish!
(Laughing) Ah, it is cool and shady in here!
I'd say you designed the perfect shady shelter.
Thank you from every one of my sensitive scales.
(Sighing)
