GLAD WE'RE TOGETHER AGAIN TODAY, YEP.
I BROUGHT SOME FORTUNE COOKIES TO SHOW YOU.
YOU EVER SEEN FORTUNE COOKIES?
THIS IS WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE.
AND I THOUGHT I'D JUST OPEN ONE AND SEE WHAT THE MESSAGE IS INSIDE.
HERE IT IS.
IT SAYS, "TENDRAS UN VISITANTE INESPERADO."
"TENDRAS UN VISITANTE INESPERADO"-- "YOU WILL HAVE A VISITOR."
I WONDER WHO THAT VISITOR MIGHT BE.
WELL, WHILE WE'RE WAITING TO FIND OUT LET'S GIVE SOME FOOD-- NOT FORTUNE COOKIES-- TO THE FISH.
COME ALONG.
SOME FOOD FOR THE FISH.
THERE YOU ARE, FISH.
BEAUTIFUL FISH.
I REMEMBER THE FIRST FISH I EVER GOT WHEN I WAS A LITTLE BOY.
IT WAS A GOLDFISH, VERY MUCH LIKE THESE.
( knock at door ) HERE'S OUR VISITOR.
WE'LL SEE WHO IT IS.
OH, IT'S MR. McFEELY.
SPEEDY DELIVERY.
THAT IS A SPEEDY DELIVERY.
I FOUND IT AT THE LIBRARY.
HOW PEOPLE MAKE FORTUNE COOKIES.
MY FORTUNE COOKIE SAID I'D HAVE A VISITOR.
YOU GET A LOT OF VISITORS.
THAT'S TRUE.
DO YOU HAVE TIME TO WATCH IT?
I DO AND I'LL TELL YOU ALL ABOUT IT.
ALL RIGHTY, TO PICTURE-PICTURE.
HOW PEOPLE MAKE FORTUNE COOKIES.
McFeely: WHEN PEOPLE MAKE FORTUNE COOKIES THEY USE A BIG MIXER LIKE THIS TO MIX FLOUR, SUGAR, EGGS AND WATER.
Rogers: IS THIS FLOUR?
THAT'S RIGHT.
IN FACT, HE'S GOING TO PUT ANOTHER BAG IN.
ANOTHER BAG OF FLOUR?
ANOTHER BAG OF FLOUR.
THERE IT GOES.
BOY, IT TAKES A LOT OF FLOUR.
IT CERTAINLY DOES BUT THEY MAKE LOTS OF COOKIES.
ARE THOSE THE EGGS?
THAT'S THE EGGS.
THAT MIXTURE OF EGGS.
AND THAT WILL MIX WITH THE FLOUR.
SEE WHAT HE'S DOING?
HE'S TURNING THIS WHEEL TO CLOSE THE DOOR AND THEN PRESSES THIS BUTTON TO START THE MIXER.
OH, SO INSIDE, ALL OF THAT'S MIXING TOGETHER?
THAT'S RIGHT.
AND AFTER A FEW MINUTES OF MIXING HE OPENS THE DOOR AND HE LOOKS INSIDE.
OH, THAT'S MUCH DIFFERENT NOW.
IS THAT WHAT'S CALLED "COOKIE BATTER"?
YES, IT IS-- COOKIE BATTER.
WHAT'S HE ADDING NOW?
IT'S FOOD COLORING AND VANILLA.
THE FOOD COLORING GIVES THE COOKIE THEIR YELLOW COLOR AND THE VANILLA MAKES THEM TASTE LIKE VANILLA.
OH, THAT'S VERY PRETTY TO WATCH.
LOOKS LIKE A PAINTING.
YES, IT DOES.
A MOVING PAINTING.
NOW HE CLOSES IT UP AGAIN AND LETS THE BATTER MIX SOME MORE.
LOT OF MIXING.
LOT OF MIXING.
THEN, WHEN THE BATTER IS JUST RIGHT IT'S POURED OUT OF THE MIXER AND INTO THESE BIG BUCKETS.
I SEE.
THERE IT GOES.
BEAUTIFUL, ISN'T IT?
IT CERTAINLY IS.
NOW, THIS WOMAN TAKES THE BUCKETS OF BATTER TO THE FORTUNE COOKIE MACHINE.
FORTUNE COOKIE MACHINE-- THAT'LL BE INTERESTING TO SEE.
AND SHE POURS THE BATTER INTO THIS PAN.
THERE IT GOES.
THEN WHAT HAPPENS?
YOU'LL SEE-- SEE THAT HOSE?
YES.
IT SUCKS ALL THE BATTER INTO THE HOLDING TUB.
IN A MOMENT, YOU'LL SEE THAT.
THERE IT IS.
THEN WHAT HAPPENS?
THE BATTER GOES DOWN THROUGH THOSE TUBES AND IS SQUIRTED INTO LITTLE, ROUND BAKING PANS, YOU SEE?
OH, THAT'S FUN TO WATCH.
THEY'RE LIKE LITTLE SKILLETS.
THEY ARE ROUND PANS FOR THE COOKIE DOUGH.
THEY MOVE ALONG THIS CONVEYOR BELT INTO AN OVEN WHERE THE BATTER IS BAKED INTO COOKIES.
THEY DON'T LOOK LIKE FORTUNE COOKIES.
OH, THEY WILL.
HERE COMES MY FAVORITE PART.
WHAT'S THAT?
IT'S WHEN THE FORTUNES ARE ADDED.
THE MACHINE PICKS UP A FORTUNE AND PUTS IT INTO THE COOKIE AND AT THE SAME TIME IT FOLDS THE COOKIE INTO THE RIGHT SHAPE.
NO WONDER IT'S YOUR FAVORITE PART.
IT IS FUN TO WATCH.
THEN THE COOKIES ARE DROPPED INTO BOXES TO COOL.
THERE THEY ARE.
AND ONCE THE COOKIES HAVE COOLED THIS MAN PUTS THEM INTO BAGS AND HE WEIGHS EACH BAG AND CLOSES IT UP TIGHT TO KEEP THE COOKIES FRESH SO PEOPLE CAN ENJOY THEM.
OH, THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. McFEELY.
WELL, YOU'RE WELCOME.
I HAVE MORE DELIVERIES NOW.
BEFORE YOU GO WOULD YOU TAKE SOME FORTUNE COOKIES?
I'D LIKE THAT.
ONE FOR BETSY AND ONE FOR ME.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
WE'LL LET YOU KNOW WHAT OUR FORTUNES ARE AFTER WE'VE OPENED THE COOKIES.
BETSY AND I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED FORTUNE COOKIES.
THANKS AGAIN.
YOU'RE VERY WELCOME AND THANK YOU FOR HELPING US.
SPEEDY DELIVERY TO YOU.
BYE-BYE, MR. McFEELY.
CAN YOU IMAGINE WHY I'M FEELING SO HAPPY RIGHT THIS MINUTE?
IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH MR. McFEELY.
IT'S BECAUSE HE WAS SO PLEASED WHEN I GAVE HIM THESE FORTUNE COOKIES-- THE WAY HE SAID, "THANK YOU, THANK YOU" AND HOW MUCH HE AND MRS. McFEELY LOVE THEM.
THAT JUST MADE ME FEEL REALLY GOOD.
IT WAS LIKE HE WAS GIVING ME A GIFT THE WAY HE ACCEPTED MINE.
LET'S JUST HAVE SOME MAKE-BELIEVE NOW.
( trolley bell dings ) TROLLEY.
( trolley bell dings ) LET'S PRETEND SOMETHING ABOUT FORTUNE COOKIES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF MAKE-BELIEVE WHERE ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.
OKAY, TROLLEY.
( trolley bell dings ) GREETINGS, TROLLEY.

( bell jingles ) YES, WELL, I WISH THE SAME TO YOU.
A BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD AND I'M EXPECTING...

I MUST GO LOOK FOR GREAT THINGS.
FAREWELL, KING FRIDAY.
MR. McFEELY, HOW GOOD TO SEE YOU.
HELLO, MAYOR MAGGIE.
YOU DON'T SOUND YOUR USUAL CHIPPER SELF.
I'M ALL RIGHT.
DID SOMEBODY HURT YOUR FEELINGS?
KING FRIDAY DIDN'T CARE ABOUT MY GIFT.
HE DIDN'T SAY THANK YOU?
NO, HE SAID THANK YOU BUT HE DIDN'T EVEN WANT TO TAKE THEM WITH HIM.
WELL, WHAT DID YOU BRING HIM?
THIS BOX OF FORTUNE COOKIES.
I LOVE FORTUNE COOKIES!
YOU DO?
WELL, PLEASE HAVE ONE.
I LIKE TO SEE THE MESSAGE RIGHT AWAY.
WHAT DOES IT SAY?
"YOU DO YOUR WORK VERY WELL."
ISN'T THAT A GREAT ONE?
I WISH KING FRIDAY HAD LIKED IT AS MUCH AS YOU.
NEXT TIME I HAVE A MEETING WITH HIM I'M GOING TO SHOW HIM MINE.
WELL, TAKE AS MANY AS YOU LIKE.
KING FRIDAY SAID TO LEAVE THEM OUT FOR OTHERS.
THANKS VERY MUCH, MR. McFEELY.
REMEMBER, SOME PEOPLE LOVE YOUR PRESENTS.
THANK YOU, MAYOR MAGGIE.

RIGHT NOW, I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET A REAL FRIEND OF MINE WHO MAKES REAL BOOKS REALLY GREAT BOOKS FOR CHILDREN TO READ AND ENJOY.
I ASKED HIM IF I COULD BRING YOU WITH ME TO HIS WORKSHOP AND HE SAID, "CERTAINLY" SO LET'S JUST GO NOW TO MEET MY FRIEND.
ERIC CARLE IS HIS NAME.
COME ALONG.
HERE WE ARE.
LET'S JUST GO ON IN.
HELLO, ERIC.
OH, HELLO, FRED.
I'D LIKE YOU TO KNOW MY TELEVISION NEIGHBOR.
MR. ERIC CARLE.
HI.
WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON?
I'M DOING PAPERS.
I PAINT THEM WITH ALL KINDS OF COLORS.
OH, THIS IS A BEAUTY.
THAT ONE'S STILL WET, I GUESS.
THAT'S STILL WET.
I PAINTED BLUES AND BLACKS ON THIS ONE.
LOVELY-- AND WHAT ABOUT THESE?
HOW'D YOU DO THESE?
I USED CARPET... AN OLD PIECE OF CARPET.
WHICH YOU CAN GET IN A CARPET STORE.
THEY'LL GIVE IT TO YOU FOR FREE AND YOU PAINT SOME COLOR PAINT ON THIS AND MAKE A PRINT.
AND THIS ONE LOOKS LIKE IT HAS LINES.
THIS ONE I USED ALSO A PIECE OF CARPET PAINTED SOME COLOR ON HERE AND DRAGGED ACROSS THIS WAY AND THIS WAY.
ISN'T THAT FUN?
AND LOOK AT THESE BEAUTIFUL PIECES.
THESE ARE DRY NOW.
WHAT BEAUTIFUL PAPERS YOU MAKE!
AND SOMEDAY THESE WILL ALL END UP IN YOUR BOOKS?
YES-- CUT OUT LITTLE PIECES PASTE THEM DOWN, MAKE A COLLAGE.
THOSE ARE MY ILLUSTRATIONS.
WOULD YOU SHOW US HOW YOU DO THAT?
I'LL BE HAPPY TO.
WELL, I'M RIGHT NOW PREPARING MY PAPERS AND YOU CAN WATCH ME.
I LIKE THAT.
AND HELP ME, TOO.
SURE.
OKAY.
WHAT KIND OF PAPER IS THIS?
THIS IS A TISSUE PAPER THAT YOU CAN BUY IN ART STORES OR STATIONERY STORES OR SOMETIMES GIFTS MIGHT BE WRAPPED IN TISSUE PAPER.
AND THEN YOU PUT PAINT ON THAT?
AND THEN I PAINT IT.
LET ME SEE.
OKAY.
THAT'S YELLOW, HUH?
THAT'S YELLOW.
AND YOU JUST PUT IT WHEREVER YOU WANT TO PUT IT?
OOPS.
AND IN THIS THERE'S JUST NO MISTAKES, IS THERE?
NO, YOU CAN'T MAKE MISTAKES, REALLY.
AND WHAT I DO I ALWAYS LEAVE A LITTLE BAND HERE SO I CAN LIFT IT... AHA.
AND I WON'T GET PAINT ON MY FINGERS.
BUT THIS LOOKS KIND OF DULL SO I'LL ADD SOMETHING ELSE TO IT AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
SEE?
THAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT, DOESN'T IT?
ISN'T THAT NICE?
YEAH, AND THEN SOMETIMES I DO THIS: I TURN MY BRUSH AROUND AND GO LIKE SO.
AH!
ERIC, HAVE YOU ALWAYS LIKED DOING THINGS LIKE THIS-- I MEAN WITH PAINT AND EVERYTHING?
WELL, I ALWAYS LIKED TO DRAW.
FROM WHEN I WAS LITTLE, I'VE LIKED TO DRAW AND MY FATHER USED TO DRAW PICTURES FOR ME AND MY FIRST-GRADE TEACHER RECOGNIZED THAT I WAS PRETTY GOOD AT IT AND SHE ASKED MY MOTHER TO COME TO SCHOOL AND TOLD HER THAT I WAS TALENTED AND I DREW WELL AND THAT SHE AND MY FATHER SHOULD NURTURE THAT AND THEY DID.
ISN'T THAT WONDERFUL?
I BET SHE PUT SOME OF YOUR PICTURES UP ON THE WALL.
THEY DID-- MY MOTHER WALKED INTO SCHOOL; THERE WERE ALL MY PICTURES IN THE HALLWAY AND SHE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT WAS HER ERIC.
THE TEACHER TOLD HER.
THIS LOOKS VERY NICE.
ARE YOU GOING TO ADD MORE TO IT?
I THINK I'M GOING TO ASK YOU TO ADD A LITTLE TO THAT.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO HELP ME?
OF COURSE!
OKAY, FIRST YOU HAVE TO PUT ON A SMOCK AND I GOT ONE FOR YOU RIGHT HERE.
YOU LOOK GREAT.
I FEEL LIKE A REAL ARTIST.
HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO PUT DOTS IN THIS?
SURE, ANYTHING.
YOU JUST DIP IT IN HERE?
DIP IT IN, AND ALL OVER YOU PUT IN DOTS.
GREAT!
I THINK I'M GOING TO HIRE YOU.
( chuckling ) THAT'S FUN.
YOU TELL ME WHEN THAT'S ENOUGH.
THAT'S PLENTY.
TERRIFIC.
WELL, WE NOW HAVE ANOTHER SHEET IN MY COLLECTION OF COLORED TISSUE PAPERS.
THAT HAS TO DRY, TOO, DOESN'T IT?
THAT HAS TO DRY.
WE CAN'T USE IT WHEN IT'S WET.
THEN AFTER A WHILE, YOU'LL CUT THAT AND MAKE IT INTO PICTURES?
PICTURES, RIGHT.
SO WE'LL PUT THAT AWAY.
AND I'LL SHOW YOU HOW I MAKE A PICTURE.
GOOD.
I HAVE STARTED A... WHAT IS THIS?
A SEAL.
A SEAL, YOU'RE RIGHT.
AND WHAT I DO IS I HAVE HERE MY GLUE.
I HAVE A BRUSH IN HERE, TOO BUT IT'S A DIFFERENT BRUSH THAN I USE FOR PAINTING; IT'S A SOFTER BRUSH.
AND THAT'S HOW IT GOES.
YOU'VE OBVIOUSLY ALREADY CUT THAT ONE OUT.
YEAH, SO I COULD SHOW IT TO YOU.
THEN IT GOES HERE AND THAT'S IT.
IT'S NOT QUITE FINISHED.
I ADD LITTLE DETAILS WITH CYONS.
AND PUT AN EYE IN HERE... AND A LITTLE BLACK... AND WE HAVE TO PUT IN THE MOUSTACHE HERE... AND WITH A LITTLE PINK... LET'S SEE A LITTLE...
THERE'S A LITTLE PINK.
HERE WE PUT THE MOUTH IN HERE AND I LIKE TO PUT SOME DOTS HERE-- YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU LOOK AT A SEAL, THEY SHINE AND HAVE THESE LITTLE LIKE DOTS HERE.
AND THE BEST PART IS-- WHEN I FINISH A PICTURE GUESS WHAT THE BEST PART IS.
WHAT?
PUT MY NAME TO IT.
"ERIC CARLE."
LET ME HOLD IT UP AND SHOW IT.
NOW, THIS PICTURE... HAVE YOU USED IN ONE OF YOUR BOOKS ONE LIKE THIS?
YES, IN HEAD TO TOE I USED A SEAL PRETTY MUCH LIKE THIS.
I WONDER IF WE COULD SEE THAT.
YES-- WANT TO TAKE OFF YOUR COAT?
OH, SURE.
I'LL KEEP ON MINE.
FRED, COME ON OVER HERE.
THANK YOU.
WHAT A LOT OF BOOKS THAT YOU HAVE!
YES, ALL ART BOOKS, BOOKS ON ANIMALS.
YOU MUST LOVE BOOKS.
YES, AND HERE ARE MY BOOKS.
AND I'D LIKE TO SHOW YOU THE BOOK IN WHICH I HAVE A SEAL PRETTY MUCH LIKE WE DID TOGETHER.
AND THIS BOOK IS CALLED FROM HEAD TO TOE.
HEAD TO TOE.
HEAD TO TOE.
OH, ISN'T THAT BEAUTIFUL!
THAT'S WHAT THEY CALL AN "ENDSHEET."
AND THIS IS THE INSIDE TITLE.
HEAD... TO TOE.
AND IT SAYS HERE "I AM A PENGUIN AND I TURN MY HEAD.
CAN YOU DO IT?"
I CAN DO IT.
GREAT.
"I AM A GIRAFFE AND I BEND MY NECK.
CAN YOU DO IT?"
I CAN DO IT.
YOU CAN DO IT, I CAN DO IT.
YOU CAN DO IT, TOO.
"I AM A BUFFALO AND I RAISE MY SHOULDERS.
CAN YOU DO IT?"
I CAN DO IT.
CAN YOU DO IT?
GREAT.
THIS GIRL IS BASED ON A FRIEND OF MINE.
I BET SHE CAN DO IT.
SHE CAN DO IT.
"I AM A SEAL AND I CLAP MY HANDS.
CAN YOU DO IT?"
THERE'S THE SEAL.
I CAN DO IT.
TERRIFIC.
"I AM A CAT AND I ARCH MY BACK.
CAN YOU DO IT?"
I'M NOT SURE.
( groans ) I CAN DO IT.
YOU CAN DO IT.
SHE DID IT WELL.
"I AM A CROCODILE AND I WRIGGLE MY HIPS.
CAN YOU DO IT?"
I CAN DO IT.
GREAT.
"I AM AN ELEPHANT AND I STOMP MY FOOT.
CAN YOU DO IT?"
I SURE CAN.
GREAT.
CAN YOU DO IT?
YOU CAN DO IT.
AND "I AM I AND I WIGGLE MY TOE."
YOU WIGGLE YOUR TOE.
"CAN YOU DO IT?"
THIS PARROT CAN DO IT.
THIS PARROT IS SAYING "I CAN DO IT, I CAN DO IT."
THAT'S A GREAT BOOK.
AND THEN WE COME BACK TO THE ENDSHEET.
OH, THAT'S BEAUTIFUL.
WHAT A FINE BOOK!
I'M GLAD YOU LIKE IT BECAUSE IT'S YOURS, FRED.
YOU'RE A GENEROUS PERSON.
THANK YOU, ERIC.
I KNOW YOU HAVE LOTS TO DO AND I MUST GET BACK BUT I'M MIGHTY GLAD YOU'RE MY NEIGHBOR.
BYE, FRED, SEE YOU.
THANKS SO MUCH, BYE-BYE.
LET'S GO BACK TO MY PLACE.
IT'S FUN FOR ME TO TELL PEOPLE HOW MUCH I LIKE THEM AND HOW MUCH I LIKE THEIR WORK.
THIS SEAL.
CAN YOU CLAP YOUR HANDS?
IT'S FUN FOR ME TO TELL YOU HOW SPECIAL YOU AND YOUR NEIGHBOR ARE TO ME.
