00:00Hey, old buddy Bert. Hey, what do you say we go outside and play some ball, old buddy, old pal, huh?
00:06Not now, Ernie. I'm reading my book.
00:09But, Bert, I don't think you understand. I am talking about going outside to play ball, Bert.
00:16I don't think you understand, Ernie. I am talking about not now. Maybe later, huh?
00:24Gee, gee, Bert, you'd rather read some book than play ball?
00:27Well, it's not just some book, Ernie. It's a really good book, and I want to finish it.
00:33Well, Bert, what could there possibly be in a book that's as good as playing ball?
00:38Well, Ernie, let me put it this way.
00:43There's a tiger in my book and a lion in my book.
00:47There's a sneaky alligator I can spy on in my book.
00:51Sometimes all I need is a book to read.
00:57Wow.
00:58And there are pirates in my book on an ocean in my book.
01:02There's a sorcerer with secret magic potions in my book.
01:06And to learn where the story will lead, I just read.
01:11On a quiet day, I could go outside and play.
01:18But there's adventure in my book, so exciting in my book.
01:22Turn the pages, see the pictures, read the writing in my book.
01:26Yes, sometimes all I need is a book to read.
01:32And that's why I want to read my book right now, Ernie.
01:39Ernie?
01:40I'll play ball with you later, okay?
01:42Ball?
01:43Who said anything about playing ball, Bert?
01:45Scoot over, pal.
01:46What?
01:46Ernie, what are you doing?
01:48Well, Bert, that book sounds so good.
01:50I want to read it with you.
01:52Hey, we must have read it too, matey.
01:54Yeah, can we start from the beginning?
01:57Where's the part about the tiger?
01:59I'd like to see the illustrations.
02:04Turn the page.
02:05Well, it is your book, Bert.
