Little Malabar is a curious little boy who travels in space jumping on planets. He is blond and wears a white T-shirt with the sun and blue shorts.

A song plays TO THE MOON AND BACK

Little Malabar says HA-HA!

The song continues I JUMP ON EVERY PLANET
AND EVERY STAR
C'MON, LET'S GO FAR
EXPLORE THE WHOLE UNIVERSE,
LITTLE MALABAR

Today's episode is "The Comet Race."

Little Malabar says HI, OSTRICH, READY TO RACE?

Little Malabar marks a line on the ground.

Little Malabar says ON YOUR MARK,
ON THE COUNT OF THREE.
ONE, TWO...
OH!
HEY, WAIT UP!
(laughing)
OH!
OH!
OSTRICH, YOU'RE LOSING
YOUR FEATHERS!
DON'T WORRY,
THEY'LL GROW BACK!

They race around the Earth until they travel across space.

Little Malabar says WHOA!
WHOA, WE'RE SUPER FAST!

A comet flies past them.

Little Malabar says EW, WHAT'S THAT?
IT LOOKS LIKE DUST.
HEY, YOU'RE LOSING YOUR DUST!
HELLO, CAN'T YOU HEAR ME?
YOU'RE LOSING YOUR DUST!

Comet says WHOOPS, SORRY.
I DIDN'T SEE YOU THERE.
I'M A COMET, AND I'M VERY OLD.

Little Malabar says OH, ARE YOU TIRED, OSTRICH?

(squawking)

Little Malabar says COMET, COULD WE REST
FOR A WHILE ON YOU?

Comet says OF COURSE, GO AHEAD,
HOP ON BOARD.

Little Malabar says PHEW.
WHOA, WHAT'S WRONG, OSTRICH?
WHOA!
HEY, THE GROUND IS...
BRR, TOTALLY ICY!
IT'S COLD ON MY FEET!

Little Malabar makes the ostrich wear boots.

Little Malabar says HERE YOU GO, NICE WARM BOOTS.
TA-DA!

Venus says HELLO, I SEE YOU'RE BACK,
MS. COMET.

Comet says JUST GOING ROUND, AS USUAL.
HOW ARE YOU YOUNG PEOPLE DOING?

Little Malabar says FINE, BUT YOU GOT DUST
ALL OVER US.

Comet says WE'LL CLEAN IT OFF,
WE'RE GETTING CLOSE TO THE SUN.
I HOPE YOU'RE READY.

Streams of water come out of the comet.

Little Malabar says WOW, WATER!
WOO-HOO!
WOW!

Comet says BYE-BYE, SEE YOU NEXT TIME.

Little Malabar says BYE-BYE, VENUS!
LOOK, IT'S THE EARTH!
C'MON, OSTRICH, LET'S GO HOME.
BYE-BYE, COMET!

Comet says BYE-BYE, LITTLE MALABAR.

Little Malabar jump onto the Earth.

Little Malabar says WOO-HOO!

Comet says SEE YOU SOON, OSTRICH.
SEE YOU SOON, MARS.

Mars says SEE YOU SOON, MS. COMET.

Comet says I'LL POP ROUND AGAIN!

Little Malabar says IT'S A TIE!
THAT MEANS WE BOTH WIN.
(laughing)
AS A REWARD,
HERE ARE SOME BEAUTIFUL HATS,
MADE OF OSTRICH FEATHERS.

Little Malabar hugs the ostrich.

A Male Narrator says COMETS ARE BALLS
MADE OF ICE AND DUST.
THEY TRAVEL VERY FAST,
AND THEY'RE VERY OLD.
WHEN THEY PASS CLOSE
TO THE SUN, THEY WARM UP,
AND LEAVE A TAIL
MADE OF VAPOUR AND DUST.

The end credits roll.
