13
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 1: The story you're about to enjoy was inspired by one

14
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: of our wonderful listeners. Thank you so much for your

15
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 1: amazing idea.

16
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 2: Hello Ivy, that's.

17
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: A very pretty dress you're wearing today. Are you going

18
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 1: somewhere special? Asked a very cute cheta plush toy sitting

19
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 1: on Ivy's bed. Her name was Pippa and the Ivy

20
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: had her ever since she could remember, sat on Ivy's

21
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: bed every day, watching over her room and waiting for

22
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: their next adventure together. Ivy always pretended that Pipa could

23
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,479
Speaker 1: talk to her and wish so hard that someday maybe

24
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: Pippa would talk for real. And secretly, Pipa wished for

25
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: something special too, the cute cheetah wish someday that she

26
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: would get to see a real cheetah and maybe, just

27
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: maybe she could become a real cheetah too. Why, yes, Pipa,

28
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 1: I'm going somewhere special, and you're coming with me, said

29
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: Ivy excitedly. We're going to the zoo today because they're

30
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 1: opening a new exhibit.

31
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 2: Oh, the zoo. I love the.

32
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: Zoo, exclaimed Pippa. It's always so fun to see all

33
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: the animals.

34
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 2: What's the new exhibit.

35
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: Well that's a surprise, said Ivy with a little smile.

36
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 2: But I know you'll really enjoy it.

37
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: You know, I love surprises, heard Pipa as Ivy picked

38
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: her up and gently placed her in her bag. She

39
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 1: made sure to bring along Pippa's water bottle, sunglasses, and

40
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: favorite cheetah snacks in case she got hungry on their

41
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: zoo adventure. With all her things packed and Pippus too,

42
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: Ivy ran down the hallway to Levi's room. Her brother

43
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: was almost ready. The last thing he had to do

44
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: was pick out which hat to wear? Do I wear

45
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 1: my elephant ear hat or my lion main hat, asked

46
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: Levi as he stood in front of his mirror. First

47
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: he tried on a gray hat with elephant ears sticking

48
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 1: out on each side, and then a yellow hat covered

49
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: in a thick mane of orange.

50
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 2: Yarn, I think you know what.

51
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: Pip and I would choose, giggled Ivy as she pointed

52
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 1: to Levi's lion hat. Yep, I think you're right, said Levi.

53
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: It's the best choice, considering I'm taking Milo with me.

54
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: As Levi tossed his elfant hat onto his bed, he

55
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 1: picked up the cutest lion plush toy that he named Milo.

56
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 1: He had gotten this cute little lion on their very

57
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:54,679
Speaker 1: first trip to the zoo when he was just two

58
00:02:54,760 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: years old. Ray and Hello, Levi said, Milah, Did I

59
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: hear we're going to the zoo today? We hope Pippa

60
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 1: is coming along too. She sure is, Milo, answered Ivy.

61
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 1: She's just taking a little nap in my back so

62
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: she'll be all rested for a fun day out. Levi,

63
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: like Ivy, also liked to pretend with his toys. He

64
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 1: would often make Milo talk and take him on adventures,

65
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,679
Speaker 1: just like Ivy did with Pippa, but that day was

66
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: extra special. Ivy thought she was the one doing the

67
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: surprising at the zoo, when in fact Levi knew there

68
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: would be a big surprise waiting there for her sister

69
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: as well. Ivy, I think this will be your best

70
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: trip to the zoo, ever, said Levi with a knowing smile.

71
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 1: You mean because of the surprise I have for Pippa,

72
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: asked Ivy with the giggle. More like the surprise that

73
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: the zoo has for you, whispered Levi to Milo as

74
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: he smiled at his toy lion.

75
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 2: What'd you say, asked Ivy.

76
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: Oh nothing, You'll find out your surprise at the zoo,

77
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: said Levi. Ivy, too focused on her surprise for Pippa,

78
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: didn't give Levi's calm and another thought. She grabbed her

79
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: coat and she, Pippa, Levi, and Milo headed downstairs. Kids,

80
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: Are you ready to go? Called out Levi and Ivy's mom.

81
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: Levi and Ivy shouted back yes, ran down stairs and

82
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 1: out the front door. They hopped into the car, buckling

83
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 1: up Pipa and Milo and then themselves. Let's go, called

84
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 1: out Ivy, ex saidedly as her mom got into the car.

85
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 2: And remember, the special thing we're going.

86
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 1: To see today is a surprise for Pippa, so please

87
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 1: don't say anything about it on our ride. I won't

88
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 1: say a word, replied Ivy's mom as she smiled at

89
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: her daughter. And Milo promises not to say a word either,

90
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: said Levi, who already knew all about the surprise and

91
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 1: of course had to share it with his best lion friend.

92
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: Thank you, replied Ivy as Pippa continued her nap in

93
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 1: the car. Ivy, Levi, and Milo passed the time on

94
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 1: their drive talking about all the things they would see

95
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 1: and what they would do when they got to the zoo.

96
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: They would make sure they saw all the animals, of course,

97
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 1: go to the petting zoo, play at the playground, get

98
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,799
Speaker 1: a frozen lemonade and a giant cookie, their favorite zoo snack,

99
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: and of course.

100
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 2: Show Pippa her big surprise.

101
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 1: As they started to list all the animals in the

102
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: zoo in alphabetical order, Levi and Ivy's mom let everyone

103
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: know they had arrived.

104
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 2: Wake up, Pipa, We're here.

105
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: Whispered Ivy as she woke up the little cheetah Ivy

106
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: made Pipa yawn and stretched and then picked her up.

107
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 1: She held up the little cheetah so she could see

108
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 1: out the car window as they drove through the zoo

109
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 1: parking lot. The zoo explained Pippa, I can't wait to

110
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: get out and explore and see what my big surprise is.

111
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: Once out of the car, Levi, Milo, Ivy, and Pippa

112
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: waited patiently next to their mom as she got their

113
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: tickets and.

114
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:47,600
Speaker 2: The zoo's front gate.

115
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 1: The gate was enormous and looked like it could have

116
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: been standing in front of a giant castle, but instead

117
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 1: it stood in front of a wonderful exhibit filled with

118
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: the most magnificent animals from around the world. As soon

119
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: as they stepped inside the zoo, Levi and Ivy felt

120
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 1: like they were in another world. Levi ran over to

121
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: the moonbear exhibit, making sure to get a good spot

122
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: in front so Milo could see all the moonbears lounging

123
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: around in their exhibit. Enjoying the beautiful weather, they went

124
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 1: to see the pandas, crown cranes, camels, snow lupbirds and

125
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: more before they reached the farmyard. Pippa was particularly excited

126
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 1: because she loved seeing the baby goats and pigs. Levi

127
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: pretended to have Milo ride on one of the donkeys

128
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 1: and everyone laughed. When they were done having fun in

129
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 1: the farmyard, they headed inside the Tropics building. Pippa was

130
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 1: a little frightened up the snakes, bats and big bugs inside,

131
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 1: but Ivy made sure to hold her tight, letting her

132
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 1: know she was safe. Levi and Ivy's mom wasn't the

133
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 1: biggest fan of snakes in the Tropics buildings, so she

134
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: suggested they leave and get a snack. Yum lemonade and cookies,

135
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: exclaimed Levi and Ivy.

136
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 2: Can I get two cookies?

137
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 1: Mom asked Ivy, one for me and one for Pippa.

138
00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: I think one is enough for both of you to share,

139
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: giggle Divy's mom, walking over to the food stand as

140
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 1: Levi and Ivy found a picnic table.

141
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 2: To sit at in the shade.

142
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: As they all waited for their tasty treat, Pippa asked

143
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 1: a very important question, So when.

144
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 2: Are we getting my big surprise.

145
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: Don't worry, Pippa, You'll see your surprise right after we

146
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: eat our cookie, said Ivy as she smiled at Levi

147
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: and Milo. Once Levi and Ivy's mom got back with

148
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: their treats. They all enjoyed their crunchy cookies and ice lemonade,

149
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: although it was very obvious that Pippa was more interested

150
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: in her big surprise than the piece of chocolate chip

151
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 1: cookie Ivy was giving her. As the little plush cheetah

152
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: stared at the exhibit path ready to start exploring again,

153
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: Ivy threw away her trash. Okay, Pippa, we can get going,

154
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: giggled Ivy as she started to get more and more

155
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 1: excited herself.

156
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 2: You're gonna love it, I just know it.

157
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: Pippa rode along in Ivy's bag, her head peeking out

158
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: of the top and her little plastic eyes opened wide

159
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 1: to make sure she didn't.

160
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 2: Miss a thing.

161
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: Then all of a sudden, she saw a very large

162
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: group of people ahead. There was someone from the zoo

163
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: standing in the pathway telling people to please get into

164
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 1: an orderly line. Everyone will get a chance to see

165
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: the new exhibit. New exhibit, thought Pippa.

166
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 2: We're here my big surprise. I wonder what animal we're

167
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 2: gonna see?

168
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: Hey, friends, what animal do you think that PIPA's gonna see?

169
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: The little cheetah was very excited, and so was everyone else.

170
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: I'vey picked up Pippa and held her close. They had

171
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: to wait about ten minutes in line as it zig

172
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: zagged around some trees and finally tore it a very

173
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: large viewing window.

174
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 2: Pippa, We're almost here, whispered Ivy to her little cheetah toy.

175
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 2: Pippa got more and.

176
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: More excited as Ivy held her above her head, turning

177
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 1: her this way and that, helping the little cheeta get

178
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: a good view. Then, one by one, as the people

179
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 1: in front of them stepped aside after seeing the zoo's

180
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 1: newest animal, it was their turn.

181
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 2: Ivy held Pippa up to the viewing window.

182
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: She was so excited to see the new animal herself,

183
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 1: but was evil more excited for Pipa to see it.

184
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: Ivy gasped as the new zoo animals strolled into view,

185
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: followed by another and another. They're so beautiful, exclaimed Ivy

186
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 1: in a quiet voice, holding Pippa close. Wow, totally incredible,

187
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 1: whispered Levi, holding Milo up to the glass. He spoke

188
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: in a quiet tone, not wanting to scare up the

189
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: animals standing in front of them. It was then that

190
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: Ivy hugged Pippa close and whispered, surprise.

191
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 2: What do you think?

192
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: Pippa didn't know what to say, because at that moment,

193
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: one of her biggest dreams was coming true. Pippa was

194
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: seeing something she had always wished to see, a real cheetah,

195
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: and she couldn't believe it.

196
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 2: Aren't they beautiful? Asked Ivy to Pippa.

197
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: Pippa nodded her head, smiling from ear to ear, still

198
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 1: not able to say a word. Then finally she spoke,

199
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: this is the best day.

200
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:02,080
Speaker 2: Ever, A dream come true. Pippa whispered in Ivy's ear.

201
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: I can't thank you enough.

202
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 1: Ivy hugged her friend tight and said something Pippa was

203
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: not expecting. I have one more surprise for you, said

204
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: Ivy as she looked at Levi, Milo and her mom

205
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: with a big smile on her face. They were almost

206
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,320
Speaker 1: as excited as she was, but none of them were

207
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,680
Speaker 1: more excited than Pippa. What do you mean you have

208
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 1: another surprise? Said the little cheetah. We could possibly be

209
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: bigger than this. Levi, who was standing in front of

210
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 1: the sign for the new Cheetah exhibit, gave Ivy a

211
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: nod and stepped to the side. It was then that

212
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 1: Pippa saw the names for each of the cheetahs.

213
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 2: There was Rory, Max, and Pippa.

214
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 1: I want to naming contests that the zoo was having

215
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 1: for the cheetahs, said Ivy as she looked into Pippa's

216
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 1: little plastic eyes. I suggest to Pippa and they loved it.

217
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 1: And after looking at all three cheetahs, they named the

218
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 1: most beautiful one after you, because You're the most beautiful

219
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: cheetah that I've ever seen. Pippa, for the second time

220
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: that day, was left without a thing to say. She

221
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: sat nestled in Ivy's arms, staring at the cheetah named

222
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:07,680
Speaker 1: after her, watching as the amazing animal walked gracefully around

223
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 1: her beautiful exhibit space, stretching in the sun, leaping on

224
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:17,439
Speaker 1: rocks and playing with Rory and Max. I'm a real cheetah,

225
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 1: got Pippa to herself. Man wish came true who thanks

226
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: to Ivy. Ivy gave her sweet little cheetah hug and

227
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: Pippa nuzzled in close to show her appreciation and joy.

228
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 1: Then Pippa got ready to speak, but this time it

229
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:38,079
Speaker 1: was different. This time, something magical happened as Pippa was

230
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 1: letting everything that had just happened sink in, the real

231
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: cheetah that shared her name walked up to the viewing

232
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:47,199
Speaker 1: window and looked deeply into her plastic eyes. Pippa was mesmerized,

233
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,320
Speaker 1: but so was Ivy. She'd never seen a wild animal

234
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: that close before. She was beautiful as Pippa the plush

235
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: toy and Pippa the real cheetah stared at each other.

236
00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 2: A light wind swirled around the exhibit.

237
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 1: Then Rory and Max called for their friend and Pipa

238
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,319
Speaker 1: trotted away. But Ivy noticed something special as she left.

239
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: It seemed like the ch hadah smiled at her and

240
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: little Pippa no way, thought Ivy to herself, I'm seeing things.

241
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 2: Then she heard something.

242
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 1: Usually Ivy's the one talking for Pippa, playing pretend and

243
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: using her imagination to make her cheat a toy come

244
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: to life and talk to her. However, this time, Ivy

245
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: didn't say a word, but she definitely heard something. Thank you,

246
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: Ivy said a soft voice.

247
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:33,439
Speaker 2: I've you.

248
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 1: Looked around, thinking Levi or her mom were talking, but

249
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,959
Speaker 1: they had already stepped away from the viewing window to

250
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 1: let other visitors see.

251
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 2: The cheetahs who said that.

252
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 1: Ivy whispered to herself. Then she got her answer. I did, said.

253
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 2: Pippa, the little blush toy, staring up at Ivy.

254
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 1: I'm a real cheetah now in that exhibit and out here,

255
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: and it's all things to you. I've you, not knowing

256
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:00,599
Speaker 1: what to do, ran away from the big crowd in

257
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: the front of the viewing window and behind a tall bush.

258
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: She helped Pippa up to her face and looked at

259
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: her sheer joy and disbelief. The little cheetah blinked her

260
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: plastic eyes and wrinkled her little plastic nose. It's my

261
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,679
Speaker 1: wish come true, Ivy, and you made.

262
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 2: It happen, said Pippa.

263
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 1: I can't wait for all the amazing adventures we're gonna

264
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 1: have together now. Ivy hugged her cheetah toy close and

265
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 1: quickly ran over to Levi. She pulled him and Milo

266
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 1: aside while their mom looked at some T shirts in

267
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,320
Speaker 1: a little gift store. She quickly told her brother the

268
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: amazing thing that had just happened, expecting him to.

269
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 2: Be unbelievably surprised like she was.

270
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 1: However, she was a little shocked at his reaction, He

271
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: simply smiled at her and held up Milo. We know,

272
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 1: he said, how, asked Ivy in disbelief.

273
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 2: You knew this was going to happen.

274
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: You knew, Pippa, my little plush cheetah toy was going

275
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: to come to life after I won.

276
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 2: The Cheetah naming contest. Ivey didn't know what to think

277
00:13:58,280 --> 00:13:59,080
Speaker 2: when Levi.

278
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:05,199
Speaker 1: And Mylah both said yes, yes, Ivy and Pippa couldn't

279
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: believe what they were seeing.

280
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 2: Milo was real too, Ivy, I.

281
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: Knew this was going to happen because the same thing

282
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 1: happened to me when I wanted them to choose naming

283
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: contest a few years ago for the new Lion cup

284
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 1: that was born, explained Levi.

285
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 2: I didn't think you would believe.

286
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: Me that Milo had come to life, even though I

287
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: wanted to tell you so many times. When I heard

288
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: that they were having a naming contest for the Cheetahs,

289
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: I just knew you'd win. And then the same magic

290
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: that turned Milo reel would turn Pipa reel too. I'm

291
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: so glad you were right, exclaimed Ivy, giving her brother

292
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: a hug. Milo and Pippa then said their first real

293
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: hellos to each other before Levi and Ivy's mom called

294
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 1: them to head home.

295
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 2: Then Levi, Ivy and their two.

296
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 1: Wild burry friends walked out of the zoo together, happier

297
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: than they could have ever imagined, and looking forward to

298
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:57,120
