JJ, want to hear a story?
Yes, I do.
Can I please help tell it, too?
Yes, listen close.
Let's imagine and rhyme.
It's Cocoa Melon Storytime!
Mommy, Mommy, look at the moon.
Let's howl at it like wolves.
That was a big, loud howl.
It reminds me of this story about a wolf and... Oh!
Well, they're in this one too, but this is really the wolf's story.
It's called The Big Loud Howl.
Far away in the quiet village of Hubbub... Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
What was that?
That was the wolf thumping through the berry bushes to invite his new piggy neighbors to a party.
Just then, a leaf fell off a tree and floated down, down, down, right onto the wolf's head.
This scared the wolf, so he let out a big, loud howl and blew all the berries off the bushes and down into the mud.
The birdies who were planning to eat those berries for dinner were not happy.
Sorry, birdies.
Oh, look what I did with my big, loud howl.
You're right, J.J.
The wolf thumped thumped, thumped to the house of straw to invite the first little piggy to his party.
He knocked on the door.
But the piggy was so busy dancing, he didn't hear the wolf.
Cha-cha-cha!
Cha-cha-cha!
So the wolf tried saying hi.
Hi!
But the piggy still didn't hear.
Cha-cha-cha!
I can't hear him.
The wolf was wondering the exact same thing, JJ.
I knocked, knocked, knocked, and I said, Hi!
Now what else can I try?
I could try howling.
But when he did, he blew the house down.
The little piggy ran away.
Oh, look what I did with my big, loud howl the second little piggy's house, feeling so sad.
He didn't mean to blow down the piggy's house no, he didn't.
When the wolf got to the house of sticks he knocked on the door, but this little piggy was so busy drumming she didn't hear the wolf.
The wolf tried saying hi, but the piggies still didn't hear I howling again.
I just have to be really careful this time.
But sure enough, he blew the house down.
The little piggy ran away.
Oh, look what I did with my big loud howl, said the wolf.
He felt so sad.
He didn't mean to blow this house down either.
Nope.
The wolf didn't even want to try to invite the third little piggy to the party.
He's been causing so much trouble with his big, loud howl.
The piggies probably think he's a big bad wolf.
Just then, the wolf heard... Oh, cluck, cluck, cluck!
A chicken?
A chicken whose kite got stuck up in a tree.
Stuck?
Oh, no!
Wolf?
Oh, wolf!
Can you do something to get my kite down from the tree?
The chicken asked, but the wolf didn't think he could help.
Can you jump?
No.
Can you climb?
No.
Well, what can you do?
Mommy, mommy, the wolf can howl.
You're right, JJ.
The wolf was nervous to howl his big, loud howl.
After all the trouble it caused, but maybe this time his howl could help.
The wolf took a deep breath and let out the biggest, loudest howl.
And the kite blew down, down, down.
Thank you, Wolf.
Thank you.
Look what I did with my big, loud howl.
I helped someone.
Just then, the three little pigs rushed over.
Wow, Wolf.
We saw you save the chicken's kite with your howl.
You were a big, bad wolf because your howl blew down our houses.
I'm sorry about that.
I wanted to invite you to my party, but you couldn't hear me.
So I tried to use my howl to let you know I was there.
It's oink, oink, okay.
Now we know your howl isn't scary.
It's what makes you special.
They're not mad.
The wolf's not sad.
The piggies know the wolf didn't mean to cause trouble.
Whenever he did, So did the wolf invite the piggies to his party?
He sure did.
Wolf invited the chicken too.
Wolf, wolf, wolf, wolf party!
And the three little pigs, the wolf and the chicken, had so much fun dancing and drumming.
The end.
We heard a story.
Yes!
