Good morning, my little Chicken, Eloise sang as 17 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 1: she entered the chicken coop. The pink Try Sarah Toops 18 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: scattered chicken feed around for them, greeting each chicken as 19 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: she went, good morning, bo Peep, how do you sleep, 20 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: Punky Rooster? Hello Peanut, Robert Mildred Radley on she went 21 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 1: through her chicken farm, greeting all of her feathered friends. 22 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: Wait a second, did you hear that very important detail? Yes, 23 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: Elois is a pink dry Sarah toops chicken farmer. Well, 24 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: she was almost out of feed when she peeked into 25 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: the chicken coop looking for the one chicken she still 26 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: needed to greet. Good morning. Uh Cookie, Cookie, where are you? 27 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: But Cookie was not in the chicken coop. She was 28 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: not in the field or the barn. In fact, Cookie was. 29 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 2: Not on the farm at all. 30 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: Earlier that morning, before Eloise had awoken, Cookie had set 31 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: off on a mission. What Alois didn't know was that 32 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: Cookie had risen just before the sun. The sound of 33 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: the other chickens chattering earlier that morning, Robert the chicken said, 34 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 1: I found some worms this morning in the field, but 35 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: they were so small. She heard Robert say. 36 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 2: I heard of a plate. You can find delicious giant worms. 37 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 2: Join norm Is gooey one's buckets. It's outside of the farm. 38 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:49,679 Speaker 1: Broccoli responded, Oh, no, that sounds too much, too scary. 39 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: I would I will stick to the feed. Aloise gies us, 40 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: thank you, clucked Mildred. But Cookie didn't want to stick 41 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: to just chicken feed. She wanted to eat giant worms, 42 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: the juicy ones, so she fluffed her feathers and headed 43 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: out of the coop and off of the farm in 44 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: search of that delicious, ooey, gooey wormy treat. By the 45 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,239 Speaker 1: time el Luise went to feed the chickens that morning, 46 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: Cookie had already made it off of the farm. Her 47 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: first stop was into the woods. Cookie the chicken listened 48 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 1: to the strange sounds. There were chickens in the trees 49 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: with loud sing, songy clucks. Hoard fulted up there, wondered Cookie. 50 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: Hellar stran chtols. Where are the budgersl renolds. Cookie the 51 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: chicken called out the strange looking chickens, saying back, who. 52 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 3: Are you not a chicken? You are a chicken. I 53 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 3: am a songbird. If you were looking for worms, try 54 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 3: over by the river. 55 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: Arka unk, sung bird. N'm chattanatan? 56 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:13,119 Speaker 2: Where's the river? 57 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 1: Just fly west, responded the songbird. Then it fluttered away 58 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 1: to find a place without curious chickens to bother it. Flowl, 59 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: repeated Cookie. She ruffled her feathers and stuck out her wings, 60 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: but nothing happened. She even closed her eyes and stretched 61 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: up her tail on her chicken legs and tried again, 62 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: and still she did not leave the ground. I'm able 63 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: at up hower, Cookie thought she spotted a log and 64 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: decided to climb up on top. Then she gave herself 65 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: a running start, spread out her wings and jumped. The 66 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: air caught under her wings and briefly lifted her but 67 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 1: unknown to Cookie, chickens could not fly wood. She shrieked 68 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: as she slowed and crashed into a pile of leaves. 69 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 2: A does our have to walk? 70 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 1: She shook herself off and began walking. Meanwhile, Eloise the 71 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: pink Trisarahtops was in the woods trying to track down Cookie. 72 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: She heard a crash and ran towards it. In the distance, 73 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: she saw Cookie shaking leaves out of her feathers, but 74 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: Cookie started walking again before she could reach her. Cookie 75 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: walked towards what she thought looked like a river up ahead, 76 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: but when Cookie got up to it, she realized wasn't 77 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: a river at all. 78 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:55,799 Speaker 2: It was a road. Need a ride? 79 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: A t rex in a bright yellow taxi had pulled 80 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: over and in front of Cookie. Cookie thought for a second, 81 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:04,559 Speaker 1: did she need a ride? 82 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 2: Where could she go to find worms? 83 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: Cookie decided wherever it was the taxi cab could take her. 84 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 1: There were the subtle announced Cookie. She had heard of 85 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 1: cities before and knew they were full of stores. Surely 86 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: there would be a worm store. Alois watched as Cookie 87 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 1: the chicken hopped into the taxi and drove away. Oh no, 88 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: she ran towards the road, but was too late. Luckily, 89 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: another taxi was driving up the road. Eloise waved them down, 90 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: pointing at the taxi disappearing into the distance. Follow that chicken. 91 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 1: Cookie watched out the window of her taxi as the 92 00:06:54,120 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 1: trees all became tall, barns and stores. Where to asked 93 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: the t rex driver, driving off front the worm star plows, 94 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: replied Cookie the worm store er, I think I have 95 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: the just the place. The t Rex dropped Cookie off 96 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: in front of a brightly colored storefront. A bell jingled 97 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: as she entered through the front door, reminding her of 98 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: the ones the cows wore. She looked at the never 99 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: ending displays of brightly colored chicken feet. She walked the 100 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: aisles of rainbow circles and feed individually wrapped in shiny paper. Wow, 101 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: dreams really do come true. Outside Elouise, the pink Triceratops 102 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: was jumping out of the taxi in front of the 103 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: candy store where Cookie was dropped off. Wait, candy store, 104 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: I thought it was a worm store. She saw the 105 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 1: chicken wandering through the aisles looking at all the candy displays. 106 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: Oh no, I think I know what's happening. What is 107 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: she doing, Eloise asked herself. Inside, Cookie was clucking in excitement. 108 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: She had found the worm section. There were giant blue 109 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: worms and rainbow worms. There were long, smooth worms and 110 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: bumpy worms. Worms she had never seen before. 111 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 2: Oh dear. 112 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: She gobbled down a smooth purple one. Ah yes, marmo 113 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: dis fust thing, she decided to try a bumpy rainbow 114 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: one next to it. Ah sorrow hermouth sorow worms. Eloise 115 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 1: entered the candy store and walked down the gummy worm 116 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: aisle toward Cookie, who was gagging on a sour gummy worm. 117 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 2: Cookie. There you are, I've been following you all day. 118 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: Cookie was so relieved to see Eloise again. The giant 119 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: worms weren't as delicious as she had hoped. Let's go 120 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: back to the chicken farm. I have a big bowl 121 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: of feed waiting for you. Eluis the pink triceratops scooped 122 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: her up, and Cookie went gladly. Maybe chicken feed wasn't 123 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: so bad after all. In fact, she was really looking 124 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: forward to it. It would definitely be better than a 125 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,079 Speaker 1: sour gummy worm. 126 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 2: The end. 127 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 1: Great job, you listened all the way to the end, 128 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 1: and you know what tem it is.
