- Buenos días, Mr. Sparks.

- Hola, Lucita.

Ooh, be careful where you land.

The ground there is very... - Whoa!

- Slippery.

- Ooh, I'm okay.

[shivers] Guess my wintertime landings could use some work.

- Wahoo!

Make way for the AJ express!

- Last stop, Hero Elementary.

- Now that's a great way to get to school in the winter.

- [whooshes] Morning, everybody--ugh.

[shivers] - Sara, where is your coat?

- Forgot it at home.

Sometimes I move too fast in the morning.

- Oh, it's important to bundle up now that it's winter.

- Okay, got it, Mr. Sparks.

Be back in a snap--home.

[whooshes] [muffled speech] Is this better?

- [chuckles] I think that's plenty.

[school bell rings] All right, Sparks' Crew, time to start our day.

Vamos!

[upbeat music] - Huh, it sure was cold outside.

- Hey, it's cold inside too.

- It shouldn't be so cold in the classroom.

- Maybe the heat isn't on.

In my house, we have to turn the heat on in the wintertime.

- The heat is on.

Nice warm air is coming in.

- So why does it feel so cold in here?

- I think I see the problem.

This window is open.

[wind whooshes] Brr.

Wakey, wakey.

Breakfast time, Fur Blur, ooh.

- Ah, sí, let's ask an expert.

- Ooh, we can ask Pop Pop, my grandpa.

He's a veterinarian.

- A veteri-what?

- A veterinarian, an animal doctor.

Veterinarians know how to take care of all kinds of animals.

Oh, and your friends.

Tell me more.

Does she feel cold when you touch her?

- Uh, yeah, yeah, she's not warm like usual.
