Voices sing, DONKEY HODIE.
A voice sings, SHE LOVES ADVENTURE,

SOMEPLACE ELSE IS THE PLACE
TO BE.

WELL, UH, PLEASE TELL
THEM THAT EVERYONE IN
SOMEPLACE ELSE IS SUPER
KIND AND LOVING.
Panda says, OKAY!
UH, MOO-MOO-MOO!

UH, THEY SPEAK IN MOOS.
Donkey says, MOO-MOO-MOO-MOO!
Moon Moths say, MOO-MOO!
[Panda gasps]
Panda says, OH! I LEFT MY MOON
MOTH CARE BOOK IN THE
SPACESHIP.
Donkey says, CARE BOOK?

[Clears throat]
Donkey says, HEE-HAW!
The Moon moths flutter unhappily around Donkey.
[Moths moo]
Moon moths fly away from Donkey.
[Exciting music plays]

Panda says, HM. THIS IS
INTERESTING. HEY, DONKEY?
IT SAYS HERE THAT MOON
MOTHS DON'T LIKE IT WHEN
SOMEONE HEE-HAWS.
SO, YOU MIGHT NOT WANT TO
DO THAT WHILE THEY'RE HERE.
[Birds chirp]
Donkey looks down and says, I KNOW.
Panda asks, UH, WHERE ARE
THE MOON MOTHS?
Donkey says, I HEE-HAWED.
THEY ALL FLEW AWAY!
Panda says, BUT THEY DON'T
LIKE HEE-HAWS!
Donkey says, YEAH, I WISH
I HAD KNOWN THAT BEFORE.
Panda says, OH, BUT I JUST
READ IT NOW. WE GOTTA FIND
THE MOON MOTHS AND BRING
THEM BACK.
Donkey says, YEAH, I TRIED
CHASING THEM, BUT THEY FLEW
ALL OVER. THEY ARE REALLY,
REALLY, REALLY HARD TO CATCH!
I DON'T KNOW IF WE CAN DO THIS
BY OURSELVES.
Panda says, WE HAVE TO TRY, DONKEY.
[Purposeful music plays]
Donkey says, OKAY, IT'S GOING
TO BE VERY HARD, BUT I, DONKEY
HODIE, WILL FIND THE MOOING
MOON MOTHS OF MOO MOTH MOON.
Panda says, WE'LL DO IT TOGETHER.
Donkey says, YEAH.
Panda says, COME ON!
Donkey says, THE MOOING MOON
MOTHS ARE NOT AROUND HERE.
Panda says, YEAH.
[Donkey sighs]
Donkey says, THE MOOING
MOON MOTHS ARE NOT IN
THE PARK.
Panda says, OH! WHERE CAN
THESE MOOING MOON
MOTHS BE?
Donkey asks, WHY DON'T YOU
CHECK THE MOON MOTH
CARE BOOK?
MAYBE SOMETHING IN THERE
WILL HELP US FIND 'EM.
Panda says, SAYS HERE THAT
MOTHS LOVE TO HIDE AND
THAT THEY'RE REALLY HARD
TO FIND BECAUSE THEY'RE THE
BEST HIDERS IN THE GALAXY.
OH, NO! MAYBE IT IS TOO
HARD FOR US TO FIND THEM.
MAYBE I SHOULD GO AND PICK
UP THE MOON MOTH PARENTS
AND, UH, HAVE THEM FIND
THE MOTHS.
Donkey says, NO, NO, NO,
PANDA, PANDA. WAIT!
EVEN THOUGH THIS IS HARD,
WE CAN STILL DO IT.
Panda asks, HOW?
[Solemn music plays]
Panda sings, SOMETIMES THINGS
ARE HARD,
SOMETIMES THINGS ARE ROUGH.
HOW DO WE SOLVE A PROBLEM,
WHEN THAT PROBLEM
SEEMS TOO TOUGH?
Donkey says, HMM.
[Fast music plays]
Donkey sings quickly, TAKE A
DEEP BREATH,
STAY FOCUSED, THINK SMART.
WHEN A PROBLEM'S REAL HARD,
BE STRONG, TAKE HEART.
WHEN WE'RE OVERWHELMED,
HERE'S A WAY TO START.
LOOK FOR AN EASY PART, YES
LOOK FOR AN EASY PART
Panda asks, UH, WHAT DO YOU
MEAN? WHAT EASY PART?
[Fast music plays]
Donkey sings, WE CAN START
WITH A THING THAT WE KNOW
HOW TO DO.
SO WE LOOK FOR SOMETHING
THAT IS EASY FOR YOU.
DO THAT ONE PART WELL,
THEN IT'S TIME TO MOVE ON.
TRY SOME HARDER PARTS
TILL THE PROBLEM IS GONE.
Donkey and Panda sing, TAKE A
DEEP BREATH,
STAY FOCUSED, THINK SMART.
WHEN A PROBLEM'S REAL HARD,
BE STRONG, TAKE HEART.
WHEN WE'RE OVERWHELMED,
HERE'S A WAY TO START.
LOOK FOR AN EASY PART, YES.
LOOK FOR AN EASY PART.
LOOK FOR AN EASY PART.
[Birds chirp]
Panda says, OKAY, SO TO FIND
THE MOON MOTHS, LET'S START
WITH SOMETHING EASY,
SOMETHING WE ALREADY
KNOW HOW TO DO.
Donkey asks, WHAT DO WE KNOW
ABOUT THE MOOING MOON MOTHS?
Panda says, THE MOOING MOON
MOTHS LOVE TO MOO.
Donkey says, YES! YES! HEY!
HEY, MAYBE WE CAN LISTEN
FOR THE MOOS TO FIND THEM.
Panda says, THAT'S A GREAT IDEA.
LET'S DO IT!
[Moth moos]
[Panda gasps]
Panda whispers, DID YOU
HEAR THAT?
Donkey says, LOOK!
[Donkey gasps]
A Moon moth rests on a tree branch.
Donkey says, IT'S MEL!
WE FOUND MEL!
Panda says, UH, COME ON
DOWN, MEL.
UH, MOO-MOO-MOO.
OH, HE'S NOT COMING DOWN.
THIS IS GOING TO BE HARDER
THAN I THOUGHT.
Donkey says, WE CAN DO IT,
PANDA. WE STARTED WITH
SOMETHING EASY, LISTENING
FOR THE MOO.
NOW FOR THE HARDER PART --
GETTING HIM TO COME DOWN.
Panda says, YEAH. OH, MAYBE
THERE'S SOMETHING IN THE
BOOK THAT CAN HELP.
Donkey asks, WHAT DOES
MEL LIKE?
Panda says, MEL LIKES SPARKLY
BOW TIES.
Donkey says, I HAVE JUST
THE SPARKLY BOW TIE.
Donkey wears a red bow tie with shiny golden polka dots.
[Whoosh, upbeat music plays]
Donkey says, MAYBE THIS WILL
ATTRACT MEL AND HE'LL COME
DOWN AND CHECK IT OUT.
Panda says, LET'S SEE.
UM, HI! UH, I MEAN, UH, MOO-MOO,
MEL. LOOK AT THE SPARKLY BOW
TIE. MOO?
Mel flies to Donkey and flutters above her head.
Donkey says, IT WORKED!
I THINK MOTHS ARE
ATTRACTED TO THINGS
THEY LIKE.
Panda says, OKAY. OKAY.
COME ON, LET'S GO AND LISTEN
FOR SOME MORE MOOS AND
FIND SOME MORE MOTHS.
[Two Moon moths moo]
Panda says, I HEAR TWO MOOS.
Two Moon moths rest on an orange slide.
[Two Moon moths moo]
Donkey says, LOOK.
IT'S MONICA AND MAREA.
[Gasping]
Panda urges, COME ON. COME
ON BACK, MONICA AND MAREA.
MOO-MOO! SEE THE SPARKLY
BOW TIE?
Donkey says, HMM?
Panda says, THEY DON'T LIKE
THE SPARKLY BOW TIE.
Donkey asks, WHAT DO
THEY LIKE?
Panda says, OH, LET'S CHECK
THE BOOK.
MONICA AND MAREA BOTH LIKE
PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE.
[Donkey gasps, whoosh]
Donkey runs away and reappears holding a pineapple upside-down cake.
Donkey says, ON IT!
MOO-MOO, MONICA AND MAREA!
PINEAPPLE CAKE! HUH?
COME AND GET IT! THEY'RE NOT
COMING TO GET IT.
Panda asks, WHY AREN'T THEY
FLYING OVER? OH, THIS IS HARD.
Donkey says, OH, BUT WE CAN DO
HARD THINGS, REMEMBER?
WE DO THE EASY PARTS FIRST,
THEN WE DO THE HARDER PARTS
TILL WE SOLVE THE PROBLEM.
Panda says, OKAY, SO...
WE LISTENED TO THE MOOS,
AND WE FIGURED OUT THAT
THEY LIKED PINEAPPLE CAKE.
THAT'S EASY-PEASY.
BUT NOW THE HARD PART.
WHY AREN'T THEY FLYING
OVER TO THE CAKE?
Donkey says, WHAT KIND OF
CAKE DID THEIR PARENTS
SAY THEY LIKED?
Panda says, UM, PINEAPPLE
UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE.
[Gasp, ding]
Donkey says, THAT'S IT!
Panda asks, WHAT'S IT?
Donkey says, MONICA AND
MAREA LIKE PINEAPPLE
UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE.
THIS PINEAPPLE CAKE
NEEDS TO BE UPSIDE DOWN.
WHOOP!
Donkey flips the cake on a plate so the cake lies upside-down.
Donkey calls, HEY!
Monica and Marea fly to Panda and Donkey.
[Gasping, upbeat music plays]
Panda says, WE GOT MONICA
AND MAREA BACK.
Donkey says, COME ON, LET'S
KEEP LISTENING FOR MORE
MOOS AND FIND THE THREE
OTHER MOON MOTHS!

Michael says, MOO-MOO.
MOO-MOO-MOO-MOO.
Panda asks, HOW DO I GET THEM
TO BOTH STAY DOWN AT THE
SAME TIME?
THIS IS HARD!
[Birds chirp]
Donkey says, OH, WE CAN DO
HARD THINGS, PANDA.
WE START WITH THE PARTS
WE KNOW HOW TO DO FIRST.
[Calm music plays]
Panda says, RIGHT, OKAY, SO,
FIRST WE LISTENED FOR
THE MOOS.
Donkey says, MM-HMM.
Panda says, AND THEN WE
FOUND OUT THAT THEY LIKED
MINI GOLF.
THOSE WERE THE EASY THINGS.
Donkey says, YEAH, NOW FOR
THE HARD THING. HOW DO WE
GET BOTH MOTHS TO FLY DOWN
AT THE SAME TIME?
Panda says, HMM. MAYBE THE
BALL IS TOO SMALL FOR TWO
OF THEM.
MAYBE WE NEED SOMETHING
FOR BOTH MOTHS. UH…
[Panda gasps]
Panda says, SOMETHING LIKE...
[Slide whistles]
Panda says,...TWO GOLF BALLS!
[Moon moths moo]
Donkey says, YOU DID IT,

SO WE CAN GET HIM TO
COME DOWN, TOO. FEET!
Donkey says, AH!
LARRY LOVES FEET.
AH! HERE YOU GO, LARRY!
Donky holds up a hoof. Panda holds up one of his feet.
[Chuckling]
Panda says, THIS IS HARD.
Donkey says OH, BUT WE CAN
DO HARD THINGS. LET'S THINK.
Panda says, OKAY.
WHAT ELSE CAN YOU DO
WITH YOUR FEET? UM...
[Moths moo musically]
Donkey says, HEY!
THSE MOOS ARE STARTING
TO SOUND A LOT LIKE MUSIC.
Panda says, OH, YEAH!
[Panda chuckles]

Michael says, MOO-MOO-MOO-MOO.
Moesha lands as Panda talks to Michael.
Panda says, OH!
[Chuckles]
Panda says, COME ON DOWN, MOESHA.
Moesha says, MOO-MOO-MOO.
Michael lands as Panda talks to Moesha.
Panda says, AH. COME ON,
MICHAEL! COME ON DOWN.
Michael says, MOO-MOO.
MOO-MOO-MOO-MOO.
Panda asks, HOW DO I GET THEM
TO BOTH STAY DOWN AT THE
SAME TIME?
THIS IS HARD!
[Birds chirp]
Donkey says, OH, WE CAN DO
HARD THINGS, PANDA.
WE START WITH THE PARTS
WE KNOW HOW TO DO FIRST.
[Calm music plays]
Panda says, RIGHT, OKAY, SO,
FIRST WE LISTENED FOR
THE MOOS.
Donkey says, MM-HMM.
Panda says, AND THEN WE
FOUND OUT THAT THEY LIKED
MINI GOLF.
THOSE WERE THE EASY THINGS.
Donkey says, YEAH, NOW FOR
THE HARD THING. HOW DO WE
GET BOTH MOTHS TO FLY DOWN
AT THE SAME TIME?
Panda says, HMM. MAYBE THE
BALL IS TOO SMALL FOR TWO
OF THEM.
MAYBE WE NEED SOMETHING
FOR BOTH MOTHS. UH…
[Panda gasps]
Panda says, SOMETHING LIKE...
[Slide whistles]
Panda says,...TWO GOLF BALLS!
[Moon moths moo]
Donkey says, YOU DID IT,
PANDA! YOU FIGURED OUT
HOW TO GET THEM BOTH
DOWN AT THE SAME TIME.
Panda says, I'M GETTING GOOD
AT DOING HARD THINGS.
Donkey says, NOW COME ON,
WE JUST HAVE TO FIND ONE
MORE MOON MOTH.
Panda says, OKAY. COME ON.
MOO-MOO!
[Moon moth moos]
[Panda gasps]
Panda says, I HEAR A MOO.
[Donkey gasps]
Donkey says, LARRY!
Panda says, LET'S FIND OUT
WHAT LARRY LIKES TO DO
SO WE CAN GET HIM TO
COME DOWN, TOO. FEET!
Donkey says, AH!
LARRY LOVES FEET.
AH! HERE YOU GO, LARRY!
Donky holds up a hoof. Panda holds up one of his feet.
[Chuckling]
Panda says, THIS IS HARD.
Donkey says OH, BUT WE CAN
DO HARD THINGS. LET'S THINK.
Panda says, OKAY.
WHAT ELSE CAN YOU DO
WITH YOUR FEET? UM...
[Moths moo musically]
Donkey says, HEY!
THSE MOOS ARE STARTING
TO SOUND A LOT LIKE MUSIC.
Panda says, OH, YEAH!
[Panda chuckles]
[Moths moo musically]
Panda says, WAIT. WAIT.
MUSIC REMINDS ME OF
ANOTHER THING WE DO
WITH OUR FEET.
Panda dances.
Panda says, DANCING!
Donkey says, YEAH! LET'S DANCE!
Panda and Donkey dance. Larry flies to them.
Larry says, MOO-MOO-MOO MOO.
Donkey says, LARRY'S BACK!
Panda says, NOW WE HAVE ALL
THE MOON MOTHS BACK BECAUSE...
Donkey and Panda say, WE CAN DO
HARD THINGS!
Donkey says, LET'S HAVE A MOON
MOTH DANCE PARTY, HUH?
Panda says, YEAH!
