[man] Max and Ruby.
[woman] Ruby
and her little brother, Max.
[children] Max and Ruby!
[children giggling]
[Ruby reading]
Now we are all ready
for Halloween.
[Ruby] You need to be ready
when Louise gets here, Max.
So that we can all go
trick or treating together
to Grandma's house.
Vampire!
[gasps]
No, Max,
that is too scary.
Teeth, please.
I'm going to dress up
like Cinderella
and you're going to be
a little prince.
Hurry up and get ready, Max.
We don't want to miss out
on any treats.
No.
No.
Ooh!
Just like Cinderella.
Hmm, something's missing.
Your majesty?
Guess who I am.
Vampire!
[hissing]
Little princes do not have
vampire teeth oozing
cherry syrup, Max.
I'll show you.
Little princes
do not have
fake hands, either.
Hand them over, Max.
[sighs]
Thank you.
Little princes
wear red capes, Max,
and they do what
princesses tell them to do.
Teeth, Max.
I'm going to put on
Cinderella make-up.
The secret to good make-up
is not to overdo it.
[coughing]
Now a little lipstick.
Ruby red, my favorite.
[kisses]
Now all I need is my
little prince.
Don't forget your sword. Max?
Vampire! [hissing]
[sighs]
How many sets of teeth do
you have, Max? Ew!
Grandma doesn't want
to be frightened by a vampire.
A little prince is much
better than a vampire.
Little princes
wear red capes, Max.
What kind of prince wears
a black cape?
Oh, you look like
a handsome prince, Max.
[doorbell rings]
Louise is here!
It's time to go trick
or treating.
[both] Trick or treat!
I wish I had thought
of Rapunzel.
I wish I had thought
of Cinderella.
[girls giggling]
Hello, Max.
I am Rapunzel.
Who are you dressed up as?
Can't you tell?
Max is a little--
Vampire!
[Ruby sighs]
Okay, Max,
be a scary vampire.
But scary vampires
don't get treats.
[Louise] That's right.
I'm going trick or treating
to Grandma's house.
Come on, Max.
[wind blowing]
Nobody's wearing
a scary costume
except you, Max.
[Louise] You might
not get
as many treats.
[Ruby and Louise]
Trick or treat!
[both giggling]
Vampire!
[kids gasp]
-See?
-Told you, Max.
[Louise] Hmph!
[Ruby] What happened
to Grandma's house?
Where did all these cobwebs
and spiders come from?
No, Max, you'll frighten Grandma
with your vampire costume
and then there
won't be any treats.
You stand back there.
I'll ring the bell.
[doorbell rings]
Grandma is going to be
so surprised.
[footsteps thumping]
[door creaks]
[Ruby and Louise]
Trick or treat!
[both gasp]
Good evening.
[chuckling]
[Max and Grandma] Vampire!
[Grandma chuckling]
[Max reading]
Just a minute, Max.
I might need this.
Okay, you can have it.
I've already
got one of those.
Summer is over and now
a new season is starting.
Do you know what
that new season
is called, Max?
It's called the fall
and do you know
what happens in the fall?
The weather
starts getting colder
and makes the trees
shake and shudder
and then all
their leaves fall off.
Fall!
[Ruby giggles]
Right.
And when all the leaves fall,
we have to make a leaf
collection book for the school.
This year, mine is going to be
the best one in the whole class.
Here's how it works.
I have to collect as many
different leaves as I can.
One leaf from each kind of tree
in the neighborhood.
When I find a new leaf,
I paste it in this book.
I have everything I need except
the copper beech,
the Japanese maple
and the rarest of all,
the bigtooth Aspen.
If I could find a
bigtooth Aspen leaf,
my leaf collection would
be the best in the whole class.
Not even Louise
has a bigtooth
Aspen leaf.
I'm not stopping until
I find one.
Fall!
Great.
I'll look through these and see
If there are any I need.
Hmm
I don't need that one,
I've got that one,
And I don't need that one.
[gasps]
I think that's a copper beech.
I'd better check in my book.
That's it!
I've got my copper beech leaf!
Thanks, Max.
Fall!
Wow, that pile of leaves is
getting pretty big.
I'll bet I find my Japanese
maple leaf here.
That's not it.
Neither is that.
I've got that one.
Fall!
If I'm right, this is
the leaf of a Japanese maple.
Let's just see.
Aha!
Vroom! Vroom!
Fall!
Max, you dumped leaves on top
of my leaf collection book.
Where is it?
There are so many leaves,
I can't find it.
Vroom!
Oh, there it is!
Now where did I put that
Japanese maple leaf?
Phew, I've still got it.
There, that's another leaf
for my collection.
Vroom! Vroom!
Now I just have to find
a bigtooth Aspen leaf.
Max, we've got a big enough
pile of leaves for now.
[gasps]
I think that's it.
[wind blowing]
Uh-oh, where did it go?
Stop right there, Max.
You don't need to put any more
leaves on this pile.
That bigtooth Aspen leaf has to
be here somewhere.
Not another step, Max.
In fact, why don't you take
a step back from the pile?
The slightest breeze
could move those leaves
and I'll lose my
bigtooth Aspen leaf for good.
You could even take
a few more steps back,
just to be on the safe side.
That's good, Max.
[gasps]
Here's the leaf.
I'm just going to double check
that this yellow leaf
is a bigtooth Aspen.
Okay, it should look like this.
That's it!
I found my bigtooth Aspen leaf.
Isn't that wonderful, Max?
I'll have the best
leaf collection book
in the whole class.
Max?
Max?
Max!
No!
[gasps]
Oh, I was so close to having
the best leaf collection
in the whole class.
Now I'll never find my
bigtooth Aspen leaf.
I can't believe it,
my bigtooth Aspen leaf!
How on earth did that happen?
Fall!
[Ruby giggles]
[Ruby reading]
Okay, Max, just one more
story and then it's lights out.
Tarantula!
I don't know, Max.
"The blue tarantula" is for
bigger bunnies.
It might give you bad dreams.
Let's read
"Good night, snoozy", instead.
This is a good story.
Good night, snoozy--
Tarantula!
Okay, Max,
but stop me if it gets
too scary
or you'll be up all night.
Late one dark and stormy night,
there was a shadow on the wall.
The blue tarantula was ready
to strike again.
Who will be his next victim?
Will it be you?
Or will it be the little bunny
next door?
Only the blue tarantula
knows for sure.
So, the next time you squish
a bug, watch out!
The blue tarantula might just
squish you.
The end.
I'm glad the blue tarantula
isn't mad at me, Max.
Max?
Don't worry, Max,
the blue Tarantula
only squishes bad bunnies.
Here's your red rubber elephant,
so you can sleep, Max.
Night-night.
Don't let the bed bugs bite.
[door creaking]
[creaking]
Tarantula!
'Night, Max.
Max, why are you in my bed?
Tarantula!
It's "Good night, snoozy"
from now on, Max.
Tarantula!
There's no blue tarantula
in your cupboard.
He's just in the story.
See?
Now go to sleep.
[door creaks]
[wind blowing]
[Ruby humming]
[yawns]
[sighs]
Huh?
Tarantula!
It's just a story, Max.
There is no blue tarantula.
There's no blue tarantula
in your cupboard,
There's no blue tarantula
outside your window,
And there's no blue tarantula
under your--
[creaking]
[creaking]
That sound is definitely coming
from under your bed.
Stand back, Max.
Looking under beds is a big
sister's job.
[creaking continues]
What is this, Max?
[box playing music]
[clown sproings]
[clown laughs]
[Ruby laughs]
It's just your jack-in-the-box.
I told you, the blue tarantula
is all in your imagination.
We can all sleep safe
in our beds.
[humming]
Goodnight, Max.
[lobster clacking]
[clacking]
Max?
Is that you, Max?
[clacking]
[wind blowing]
[gasps]
The blue tarantula!
Move over, Max.
[clacking]
Tarantula!
