Zoe: Big Bird?
Big Bird: Yeah, Zoe?
Zoe: Ya know what I like best?
Big Bird: What?
Zoe: Learning to read.
Big Bird: Oh, me too.
Zoe: Big Bird, ya know what else I like best?
Big Bird: No, what?
Zoe: When a grown-up reads to me. I wish a grown-up would read me this book, right now!
Big Bird: Hmmm ... well, I know a good way to get them to do it.
Zoe: You do?
Big Bird: Sure, now you're Maria, see? (music starts) So, I bring you my book, and I say ... Maria?
Zoe: Yes, Big Bird?
(sung)
Big Bird: Read me a story
Read me a rhyme
Something that happened
Once upon a time
It can have monsters
Princesses too
Wonderful kingdoms
Make-believe or true
Read me a story
And when it's through
Here's what I promise to do
Read me a story
And when I can read
I'll read one to you
(spoken)
See? You make 'em an offer they can't refuse!
Zoe: If I was Maria, I'd read to you.
Big Bird: Oh, and there she is! Look, you sing her this song and I'll bet she'll do it, okay?
Zoe: Yeah, yeah .... Maria? Maria?
Maria: Yes, Zoe?
Zoe: Maria, I wanna ask you something.
