Well, friends, are 13 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: you ready for today's adventure? Me too, Let's go. Theo 14 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: loved dinosaurs. He loved dinosaurs so much that he even 15 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 1: named his hamster Bronto, after his favorite dinosaur, the Bronosaurus. 16 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: Bronto loved dinosaurs too. He loved to look at Theo's 17 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: dinosaur books and watched his Theo played with his dinosaur toys. 18 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: Bronto loved dinosaurs so much he wished he could be 19 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: one too. I really want to be a real Brontosaurus, 20 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: Bronto announced to the family dog Roxy. Theo wasn't allowed 21 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: to name the family dog, and Bronto thought he was 22 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: missing out by not having a cool dino name like his. 23 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: Why would you wanted to do that, Roxy asked, Then 24 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: you'd be too big to run on your wheel or 25 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 1: right around in theo's pocket. But if I were a 26 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 1: real dinosaur, then I wouldn't need to ride in theo's pocket. 27 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: He could ride around on me, replied Bronto. Why yes, 28 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: If you run on that wheel fast enough, maybe you'll 29 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: open up a portal back to the land of dinosaurs. 30 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 1: She laughed and walked out of theo's room, but Bronto 31 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: wasn't discouraged. Even though Roxy the dog was laughing, Maybe 32 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: she was right. Hmmm. So Bronto picked up speed on 33 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: his wheel. He ran as fast as his little feet 34 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: would carry him, and then pushed himself even harder. Suddenly, 35 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: a shimmery purple appeared in the middle of his wheel. 36 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: What is that, asked Bronto. He ran faster, and the 37 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: purple shimmer grew larger. It kept growing wider and wider 38 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 1: until it was about to swallow the wheel Bronto was 39 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: running on. Roxy. Hey, Roxy, I get that, Bronto shouted. 40 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: He saw the dog's white muzzle peek through the doorway, 41 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:13,119 Speaker 1: just before the purple shimmer grew again and swallowed up 42 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: the whole wheel, shouted Bronto. As the wheels spun him 43 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: through time, images flew past him until he saw images 44 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: of dinosaurs all around him. He began to slow down 45 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: to get a better look. When he did, even more 46 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: dinosaurs came into view. He could also see the green 47 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: of the ground and the blue of the sky. Volcanoes 48 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: were smoking out in the distance, and pits of tar 49 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: were visible around the landscape. Bronto stepped off his wheel 50 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: and alarmed to see that he was now face to face. 51 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 2: With a real wife brontosaurus. 52 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: Did I really do it? Did I travel through a 53 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: portal and back to the time of the dinosaurs? He 54 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: jumped up and down and heard a booming sound like 55 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: thunder that caused him to jump again. 56 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 2: Oh easy, there, fella. 57 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 3: Don't wanna shake down the whole forest, said the brontosaurus 58 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 3: next to him. 59 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 1: How could I do that? I'm just a hamster, laughed Bronto. 60 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: Then he asked, h why are you so small? You're 61 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: supposed to be the biggest dinosaur around. The brontosaurus frowned. 62 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 2: I don't know what a amster is, but you are 63 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 2: definitely not one, and I am tall, but so are you. 64 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 2: We're both brontosauruses. 65 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 3: What. 66 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:11,919 Speaker 2: Bronto turned and ran. 67 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: For the nearest puddle of water to look at his reflection. 68 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: As he did, something thundered beneath him. He looked into 69 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: the puddle and gasped, dude, I'm really a dinosaur. He 70 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: jumped for joy and heard the thundering sound again. Oh 71 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: that's me. Bronto stomped his giant dinosaur feet again and 72 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: watched the trees all shake around him. 73 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 3: Be careful, you don't know what could happen if you 74 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 3: shake the ground too much, but Bronto was too excited 75 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 3: to listen. 76 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: Look at by. I get a lace off the tallest 77 00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 1: three branches. He munched and crunched his happily through the 78 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: nearest tree. I get across the river in just one step, 79 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 1: he shouted happily while stepping over the river. Let me 80 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: do it again. Bronto leaped back and forth over the river, 81 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 1: shaking the ground, the trees and everything around. Stop stomping, 82 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 1: the brontosaurus, warned him again, but it was too late. 83 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 1: All of Bronto's stomping had shook up. Oh dear the volcano, 84 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 1: and it was waking up, the volcano rumbled and thundered 85 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: through the air. 86 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 2: The volcano's going to a. 87 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: Rapt shouted the brontosaurus. H Bronto looked around frantically for 88 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: a place to hide, and spotted his wheel passing through 89 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 1: the portal. Must have made his wheel bigger too, because 90 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,159 Speaker 1: it was ginormous. I have an idea. 91 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 3: Follow me. 92 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: The two stomped toward the wheel, jump on. Once they 93 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: were both on, Bronto gave the last direction, Run as 94 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: fast as you can. The two dinosaurs did just that. 95 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 2: The wheel isn't going anywhere. 96 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: The Brontosaurus told Bronto, just streuss me. They keep running. 97 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: They kept running and running and running until the purple 98 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: shimmer appeared in the middle of the wheel. In the distance, 99 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: lava began spewing angrily from the volcano. Keep running, Bronto 100 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: assured the scared Brontosaurus. 101 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 2: They ran, and. 102 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: The purple shimmer continued to grow. The volcano shot hot 103 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: lava into the air. Just as the purple shimmer grew 104 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: large enough to swallow the wheel hole. They ran back 105 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 1: through time until Bronto saw theo's bedroom here. Slow down. 106 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: He called out. The wheel slowed down and began to shrink. 107 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: The Brontosaurus was thrown from it, and Bronto fell back 108 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: into his cage. He saw Roxy the dog in the 109 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: corner of the room with her doggie jaw open in shock. Er. 110 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 2: Is that did did you? 111 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: Roxy stammered, unable to get the words out. Bronto sat 112 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: in his shavings and smiled. Yep, I just traveled back 113 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 1: in time. I was a dinosaur. He forgot all about 114 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: the brontosaurus until he heard things smashing in the room. 115 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: Brontosaurus was squished inside the bedroom, its tail sticking out 116 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,959 Speaker 1: the open window, its head sticking through theo's open door. 117 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: Then Bronto heard footsteps approaching. Uh uh, Fronto said, right 118 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:08,320 Speaker 1: before we heard Theo's voice from the hallway. Ah, what 119 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: is this? A real prontosaurus in my room? Cool? Wow, 120 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: that may be the end of our story, but holy smokes, 121 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: can you imagine a real dinosaur being dropped into your bedroom? 122 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 2: Wow? 123 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: I bet there's some incredible things waiting ahead in this 124 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: family's house.
