00:25Oh, no! Why can't I hear anything?
00:34Beethoven! Beethoven! Are you okay?
00:43Beethoven couldn't hear a sound!
00:51Poor thing!
00:55I can't listen to my music.
01:01He couldn't even hear the birds singing.
01:10But Beethoven didn't give up.
01:15I'm sad. I'll show my feelings through music.

02:29Edison
02:32Ouch! My stomach!
02:43Edison, what did you do to your friend?
02:47I thought gas could make him fly.
02:53Oh, Edison!
02:54Edison was a curious kid.
03:01Why is one plus one two?
03:05What?
03:07Look! It's one!
03:13Ha-ha! Edison, you're weird!
03:18Edison became an inventor.
03:21He loved to make new things.
03:32One day, Edison looked at a light bulb.
03:37The light was too bright and went out quickly.
03:42Ah-ha! Let's make it better!
03:49But it wasn't easy.
03:52Edison failed and failed.
03:55But he never gave up.
03:59Finally, he invented a new light bulb.
04:02Everyone ready?
04:11The light goes on...
04:13Now!
04:20Wow! Look at these lights!
04:23Unbelievable!

05:25Insects, too.
05:29Faber studied many insects in the forest.
05:36One day, he saw a dung beetle that lived near poop.
05:43Poop! Poop and poop!
05:47Ew, you smell like poop.
05:51Ugh, so dirty.
05:53Faber was always with insects.

07:17So, he couldn't go to school.
07:23Boo-hoo!
07:24Anderson is so stupid.
07:26He can't go to school.
07:30Anderson was sad.

07:43He became an actor.
07:47Hmm.
07:49He's good at acting,
07:51but he doesn't know how to spell.
07:54The theater owner didn't like Anderson.
07:57I don't think acting is my way.
08:03I want to write stories.
08:05But I don't know how to spell.
08:08One day, the king gave out money to help the poor.
08:12Anderson went to school and study with this money.
08:24Anderson went to school and studied hard.
08:30He started writing many fun stories.

08:46and started to become famous.

08:55Please keep on writing.
08:57Yes, I will.
09:09Anderson saw some swans swimming in the pond.
09:14A baby swan was paddling hard.
09:18That baby swan looks like me when I was young.
09:23I want to write a story about this.
09:27The story he wrote was
09:30The Ugly Duckling.

10:19However, Nightingale studied hard.
10:25She finally became a nurse.
10:28She was happy to help people.
10:32Suddenly, the Crimean War began.

10:59Nightingale had an idea.
11:01Oh, that's it!
11:03We must clean the hospital
11:05and use clean tools.
11:08People didn't listen to her idea.
11:13Who cares?
11:15We have no time.
11:18But Nightingale didn't stop cleaning.
11:24Soon, fewer people died.
11:27People praised Nightingale.
11:33Ah!
11:34Nightingale was right.

24:05Whew! Time flies!
24:11Bach couldn't sleep. He was so busy making music.
24:17What are you doing, Bach?
24:20I'm working on a song for the cello. Isn't it wonderful?
24:25Why would you write a song only for the cello? Don't waste time!
24:31But Bach kept going. He wrote cello songs.
24:38He knew the beautiful sound it made.
