[clock chiming and ticking]

A clock in Gisele’s backyard strikes 5.

Gisele says DO YOU KNOW WHAT
THAT SOUND MEANS?
[clock chiming and ticking]

Gisele sits on a rocking chair with a book on her lap and says IT MEANS, IT'S
TIME FOR A RHYME.
WHAT'S THAT,
BEAR?

A teddy bear sits by the clock.

Gisele says YOU'D LIKE TO HEAR A
RHYME ABOUT COUNTING?
I THINK I HAVE ONE
OF THOSE IN HERE.

She opens her book of rhymes.

Gisele says IN THE KINGDOM OF
THINGDOM,
THE KING HAD TO KNOW
HOW MANY FLOWERS
STOOD IN A ROW.

A teddy bear dresses as a king stand in front of a row of
6 flowers.

Gisele says HE TRIED TO
COUNT THEM.
"ONE, FIVE AND
THREE."
[bee buzzing]

A bee flies next to the king.

The king runs away.

Gisele says BEFORE BEING
CHASED AWAY BY A BEE.
WHEN HE CAME BACK,
HE COUNTED AGAIN.
THIS TIME HE COUNTED...

The king says "ONE, THREE, FIVE
AND TEN."

Gisele says SOMEHOW HE KNEW HIS
ANSWER WAS WRONG.
LUCKILY, THEN, THE
PRINCESS CAME ALONG.

A rag doll dressed as a princess appears and says "I HAVE A WAY TO COUNT
ALL THE FLOWERS.
I USE IT TO COUNT
TREES, THE CLOUDS,
AND THE HOURS."

The princess says I ALWAYS START WITH
ONE, TWO, THREE
FOUR, FIVE, SIX,
THE NEXT WILL BE
SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE
ARE NEAR THE END
RIGHT BEFORE THE
NUMBER TEN
HELP THE KING COUNT
THE FLOWERS.

A row with 10 flowers appears.

Gisele says AND FROM THAT
DAY ON,
THE KING ALWAYS
REMEMBERED
TO THE ORDER TO
COUNT THINGS IN.
