(music plays)

A red book with a hamster on the cover appears against a background in which a castle can be seen.

Tumbleweed says TUMBLETOWN TALES.
STARRING ME, TUMBLEWEED.

The red book opens. A popup castle comes up, and inside the castle, Tumbleweed stands in a room watching TV.

Rob says AND THE MAYOR
PROMISES PLENTY
OF PARTIES FOR THIS
YEAR'S PARADE.
NOW, LET'S GO TO BEIGE
DAVIS WITH THE WEATHER.
BEIGE.

Tumbleweed saysOH, GREAT, 'CAUSE
I CAN'T WAIT
TO GO OUTSIDE AND
DO SOMETHING.
I'M GETTING
CASTLE FEVER.

On TV, Beige says WELL, FOLKS, IT IS A
WARM AND BREEZY DAY
HERE IN TUMBLETOWN.
AND, IF YOU'RE HEADING
UP TO RABBIT MOUNTAIN,
TAKE A LOOK AT THE
THERMOMETER THERE
WHERE IT'S READING
A SUPER 25 degreesC.
[laughing]

Tumbleweed says 25 degreesC?
25 degreesC?!
I HAVE NO IDEA
WHAT THAT MEANS.
BUT I HOPE IT MEANS
COLD AND SNOWY
SO I CAN GO SKIING!

Tumbleweed pilots a helicopter.

Tumbleweed says HERE WE GO!
THIS IS TUMBLEWEED
THE FLYING HAMSTER!
HI, HIP.
HI, HOP.

Hop says HEY!
HIP, WHO IS THAT?

Tumbleweed says HI, SEA CAPTAIN.
I'M FLYING!

Sea Captain stands in his boat.

Sea Captain says HEY, FUZZY FACE,
WHATCHA DOIN' UP THERE?

Now, Tumbleweed flies over the city.

Chinchilla says CHINCHILLA.

Tumbleweed says WHOO-HOO, HI
TUMBLETOWN!

Chinchilla says CHINCHILLA.

Tumbleweed lands on a mountain. He stands by a helmet and a pair of skis.

Tumbleweed says OKAY.
WAIT A MINUTE.
THERE'S NO SNOW
ON THIS MOUNTAIN.
I GUESS 25 degreesC MEANS IT'S
TOO HOT FOR SKIING.
OH, NO, NOW WHAT
AM I GONNA DO?
HUH?
WHAT WAS THAT?

A ball falls near him.

A mouse says UH, EXCUSE ME,
SWEETIE.
YOU WITH THE SKIS.
COULD YOU KICK THAT
BALL OVER, PLEASE?

Tumbleweed says OH, OKAY.
I'LL HIT IT
TO YOU.

Tumbleweed flies back.

Tumbleweed says I CAN'T BELIEVE I
WENT ALL THAT WAY
TO GO SKIING AND I
COULDN'T GO SKIING -
WATCH OUT!
BECAUSE IT WAS
TOO WARM.
I SURE HOPE TOMORROW I
PAY BETTER ATTENTION
TO THE WEATHER FORECAST.

Hop says DOES ANYBODY KNOW
WHO THAT IS?

Tumbleweed watches TV.

Beige says I'M BEIGE DAVIS AND
I'M GOING TO TELL YOU
ALL ABOUT THE WEATHER.

Rob says THAT'S WHAT A WEATHER
REPORTER DOES, BEIGE.

Beige says CORRECT.
IT'S A QUIET DAY AT
SQUIRREL BEACH
WHERE THE THERMOMETER
READS 0 degreesC.

Tumbleweed says QUIET DAY AT
THE BEACH?!
THAT'S THE BEST
TIME TO GO.
BUT, WAIT A MINUTE,
WAIT A MINUTE, 0 degreesC.
I'D BETTER BRING
EXTRA SUNSCREEN.
HERE I COME, BEACH!

Sea Captain says HEY, HEY,
FUZZY FACE.
NOW WHERE ARE
YOU GOING?

Tumbleweed sails in a boat.

Tumbleweed says TO SQUIRREL BEACH,
WHERE ELSE!

Sea Captain says MAN, THAT HAMSTER
IS CRAZY.

Now, Tumbleweed drives his car.

Tumbleweed sings GOING TO THE BEACH
I'M GOING TO THE BEACH
I'M GOING TO THE BEACH
I'M GOING

Tumbleweed sits in the snow. A sign reads "Squirrel Beach Closed."

Tumbleweed says OKAY, NOT A GOOD
DAY FOR THE BEACH.
I GUESS 0 degreesC MEANS
NOT WARM AND SUNNY.
IT ACTUALLY MEANS COLD
WITH A CHANCE OF FLURRIES
INCREASING TO SNOWSTORMS
IN THE AFTERNOON.
AND SNOWBALLS.
OKAY, WHO
THREW THAT?

[laughing]
A snowman seems to laugh.

Back in the room, Tumbleweed says THAT IS THE LAST TIME
I GO TO THE BEACH
WHEN IT'S 0 degreesC.
THAT WAS TOO COLD.
AND 25 degreesC IS TOO
WARM TO GO SKIING.
I WONDER WHAT IT'S
GOING TO BE LIKE TODAY.

On the TV, Beige says FOR ALL YOU LUCKY
FOLKS WHO STAYED
IN TUMBLETOWN THIS
WEEKEND,
THE WEATHER IS
A SUPER 20 degreesC.

Tumbleweed says 20 degreesC.
THAT'S THE PERFECT
WEATHER FOR...
OKAY, LET ME
FIGURE THIS OUT.
25 degreesC WAS TOO WARM
TO GO SKIING.
0 degreesC WAS TOO COLD TO
GO TO THE BEACH.
SO, 20 degreesC IS THE
PERFECT WEATHER FOR...
A PICNIC - WHOO-HOO!

Tumbleweed and other rodents stand outside the castle.

Tumbleweed THANKS FOR COMING TO
MY PICNIC, EVERYBODY!

A hamster says YOU GOT IT,
TUMBLEWEED.

Beige says WHAT DO YOU MEAN
WE'RE LIVE?!
THIS IS BEIGE DAVIS
REPORTING TO YOU
FROM TUMBLEWEED'S
CASTLE
WHERE THE WEATHER
IS BEAUTIFUL
AND THE COLESLAW
IS TANGY.
DO I HAVE ANYTHING
IN MY TEETH?
THIS ONE TIME I COVERED A
HOCKEY GAME IN LEAMINGTON,
AND I HAD A KERNEL
OF CORN IN MY TEETH
THE ENTIRE TIME.
EMBARRASSING!
