Speaker 1: today's story? Me too. Let's go. Even Anna. We're playing

12
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: outside at the park near their house when all of

13
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: a sudden, it's starting to rain. Run, Anna shouted. Even

14
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 1: Anna grabbed their things and started running back to their house.

15
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:05,639
Speaker 1: It just out of nowhere, so much rain, so much rain.

16
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 1: As they got back to their house, Eve brushed the

17
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,399
Speaker 1: water out of her hair and Anna took off her

18
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: muddy shoes as they stepped inside. That was crazy, that

19
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:23,759
Speaker 1: rain just came out of nowhere. Look, there's barely any clouds.

20
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 1: It's like still blue sky. Oh Eve, do you know

21
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 1: what that means? Said Anna? There could be a rainbow

22
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,479
Speaker 1: if if like there's still a blue sky and if

23
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: the sun's rain sun's out while it's raining, there could

24
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 1: totally be a rainbow. Eve and Anna ran over to

25
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: the window to look outside, and right there, look said Eve.

26
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: Eve was the first one to spot it. The rainbow

27
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 1: was high in the sky, looked like it was really

28
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: far away, but it was huge. You could see from

29
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: end to end. It was beautiful. Anna. Have you ever

30
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 1: like tried to find the end of the rainbow. Yeah,

31
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: a long time ago when I was little. But it's

32
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 1: I think it's impossible to find the end of the rainbow.

33
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Look there, like, we can almost

34
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 1: see it. As they looked at the hills where the

35
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: rainbow was, it's like they could almost see where the

36
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: rainbow touched the ground. Let's do it. What if we're

37
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: the first ones there. There's always a pot of goal

38
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 1: at the end of the rainbow, right, Um, that's what

39
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 1: they say. Okay, let's go. Even Anna put on some

40
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: rainboots and rain jackets and started off hiking towards the rainbow.

41
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 1: They didn't know how much time they would have because

42
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 1: sometimes rain rainbows can disappear really quickly. Either if the

43
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 1: rain stops or the sun goes away. It's a really

44
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: hard thing to find the end of a rainbow. Have

45
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 1: you ever seen a rainbow in the sky. Yeah, they're

46
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 1: so cool, so bright, and it's crazy how the colors

47
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 1: can just like be painted in the sky like that.

48
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: Pretty cool. Well, even Anna were climbing over some rocks

49
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: that were really slippery because it was still raining. They

50
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: got higher and higher up these hills when all of

51
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: a sudden, Eve saw the end. Anna, it's right over there.

52
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: Has hurry. Even Anna started running as fast as they could.

53
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 1: They have never gotten this close to an end of

54
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: a rainbow before. They couldn't wait to see what was there.

55
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: Even Anna rounded the corner and there it was the

56
00:03:53,120 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: end of the rainbow. And what was that sound? Anna?

57
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: Did you hear that? I definitely did, said Anna. And

58
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: there it was down near the end of the rainbow

59
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: was a little is that leprecn? I think leprecons do

60
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 1: hang around the end of rainbows. Let's go talk to him,

61
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: said Eve, Hey, buddy, are you okay? My name's Eve.

62
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: I'm not okay, Ah, something terrible happened. Someone stole my

63
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: pot of gold. The leprecn went on to tell even

64
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: Anna that he had ran over to the rainbow to

65
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,280
Speaker 1: get the pot of gold, and it's the leprecns job

66
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 1: to keep all the gold safe. Right, Yeah, well, I

67
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 1: guess someone got there first, and I don't even know

68
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: where he went. He was he he was very grumpy,

69
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: and I don't know what I'm gonna do, said the LEPrecon. Anna.

70
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: Do you think he said he was grumpy? Right? Do

71
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: you think that was our neighbor? Oh? Yes, Tom is

72
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:23,600
Speaker 1: very grumpy. Even Anna had a neighbor named Tom. He

73
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: was very old and very grumpy, and he did like

74
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 1: shiny things. Oh dear, yes, Mr LEPrecon, I think we

75
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: know who took your pot of gold, said Eve, you do?

76
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: Do you think you can take me there? Um? I

77
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: guess like we can go knock on the door and

78
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: ask and we'll introduce you. Oh that that would be great.

79
00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: Let's let's go hurry, we're running out of time. Even

80
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: Anna led the leprechn down the hill all the way

81
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 1: back down to the house. Lepricns. Uh, their feet moved

82
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: pretty quickly, but since they're a lot smaller than us,

83
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: they're not as fast, so even Anna had to go

84
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 1: carefully slow. And it was slippery from the rain, and

85
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: the leprecn kept slipping, so he needed some extra help. Hey,

86
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 1: Mr Lepricn, said Anna, how long have you been doing

87
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: this job of like protecting the gold. I've been doing it, oh,

88
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 1: for a long time, maybe about eight hundred years. Eight

89
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 1: hundred years. Anna couldn't even believe it, she said, I'm

90
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 1: I'm definitely. I don't even know that people could live

91
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,679
Speaker 1: that long. Who people can't live that long. It's it's

92
00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: only us lepri couns. Even Anna arrived at their neighbor's house,

93
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 1: Grumpy Tom, and they knocked on the door. Oh who's there? Hi? Hi,

94
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: um hi, Mr Tom, this is even Anna's here too.

95
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: Where your neighbors? We were just wondering if you could

96
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: talk for a second. Grumpy Tom wouldn't even open his door. No,

97
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: I don't have time to talk to you. I'm busy

98
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: right now. Go away. Okay, uh okay, sorry for bothering you,

99
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: said Anna. I'm so sorry, Mr Leprechaun, But see he's

100
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 1: really grumpy. I don't know what to do. Oh well

101
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: mm hmm, maybe if if we can beak in the window,

102
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: I'll beak in the window and see if the gold

103
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: is in there. The Leprechaun jumped up to look inside

104
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: the window, and sure enough, there it was. The pot

105
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: of gold was sitting in Tom's living room. It looked

106
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: like he was counting all the coins. Even Anna couldn't

107
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: believe it. You were right, Mr Lepricun. All right, we

108
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: gotta find out a way to trade. Uh. Do you

109
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: have anything that Tom would want instead of the gold?

110
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,719
Speaker 1: Said Eve as she was asking the Lepricun, who know

111
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: that's that's my most important possession. I only have gold.

112
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: M m what about do you happen to have any mushrooms?

113
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: I think gruppy Tom really likes mushrooms and marshmallows. Mushrooms

114
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 1: and marshmallows, said Anna. That's pretty silly. Yeah, I know,

115
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: but he eats those all the time. That's the only

116
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 1: thing I see a meeting mushrooms and mushmallows. I think

117
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: I actually know where I can get some of those.

118
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: Leprecn took off running. The leprechn lived in an underground

119
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 1: home that was built into the side of a hill,

120
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,959
Speaker 1: and so his little door was very small, too small

121
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 1: for people to go in, but just the right size

122
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: for him. He ran to his door and went inside

123
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: and I guess inside of his home he had a pantry,

124
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: a really big pantry that was full of everything. And

125
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 1: so by the time he came back, his pockets and

126
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: hands were full overflowing of marshmallows and mushrooms. Here this

127
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 1: is what I got, said the leprecun is. He dumped

128
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: them all into a basket. Wow, that's perfect. Even in

129
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 1: a grabbed the basket and went to the door. They

130
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 1: knew that Grumpy Tom he loved mushrooms and marshmallows like

131
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: more than anything, and so he would never pass up

132
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:14,439
Speaker 1: a trade like this, Mr Tom, it's us again. Um,

133
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 1: what are you doing back here? I told you to

134
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: leave me alone, said Grumpy Tom. We're very sorry to

135
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 1: bother you, but we have this basket of marshmallows and mushrooms,

136
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:34,439
Speaker 1: and we're you have a basket full of mushrooms and marshmallows.

137
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Those are my favorite things in

138
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: the whole world. Why why did you bring me that? Well?

139
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,959
Speaker 1: You see, um, that pot of gold that you found

140
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,319
Speaker 1: is actually our lepre con friends and he needs it back.

141
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 1: So we were wondering if you could trade the basket

142
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 1: of the gold for this basket of mushrooms and marshmallows. Oh,

143
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:04,199
Speaker 1: you drive a hard bargain. Yes, I do love marshmallows

144
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 1: and mushrooms. Yes, fine, fine, fine, you can have your

145
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 1: shiny coins back. Just given me quick, quack quack quack quick.

146
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: Grumpy Tom tossed out the pot of gold and the

147
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 1: gold coins went flying everywhere, but all he cared about

148
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 1: with his mushrooms and marshmallows. That's pretty silly that he

149
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: would trade that, Eve, I can't believe that worked. Anna

150
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,959
Speaker 1: was shocked that grumpy Tom would trade gold coins for

151
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:37,319
Speaker 1: marshmallows and mushrooms. By the time they turned around, the

152
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 1: lepre con had already filled up the pot of the

153
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,400
