Backpack

Dora: Hi, I'm Dora. This is my backpack. Do you have a backpack? Backpack is my friend.

(Backpack giggles)

Dora: She goes with me where ever I go. I remember when I first got Backpack. (She imagines when she first got a backpack) One day I was looking for my library books.

Dora: Where are my library books? Do you see any books?

(Cursor clicks them)

Dora: My library books! I hope I have all 8 books. Count with me. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Eight books. Good counting. I have to take these books back to the library before it closes, or they'll be late. [As she tries to carry them, they were too heavy.] Oooh, they're heavy.

Mami: Dora! We have a surprise for you.

Dora: You do? What?

Mami: It's something that will help you carry your books to the library.

Papi: Beles endomos, a backpack.

(Backpack hops into the room)

Dora: (gasps) A backpack. Just what I need.

Mami: This is a very special backpack, Dora.

Papi: Con diemene, de domo. Anything you need, she's got inside for you.

Dora: I love it. Thank you, Mami. Thank you, Papi. Gracias.

Dora's parents: De nada. (Both hug her)

Backpack: Hola, Dora.

Dora: Hola.

Backpack: I can carry lots of stuff, ya amiga.

Dora: Backpack speaks Spanish and English, just like me.

Backpack: I can carry those libros.

(Dora's parents laugh and Dora puts all the books into her)

Backpack: Yum yum yum yum yum yum! Delicioso.

(Dora laughs and so do her parents)

Dora: Backpack, I'm gonna take you with me where ever I go.

Papi: Why perfecto.

Mami: De que la muy bien. [Papi carries Dora and kisses him and his wife]

Dora: Backpack, we gotta hurry if we're gonna get to the library before it closes.

Backpack: Vamonos! Lets go!

Papi: Remember, Dora. Everything you need, Backpack has inside for you.

Dora: I'll remember!

[As Dora continues her journey, she hears someone crying]

Dora: Do you hear someone crying? Oh no! I think that's my best friend, Boots.

(Boots crying as he approaches Dora)

Dora: Boots, what's the matter?

Boots: I fell and got a booboo.

Dora: Aw, Boots. (Boots sniffs) We need to put something on that booboo to make it feel better. Where can I find something to put on Boots' booboo?

Backpack: Backpack, backpack.

Dora: Hey, yeah. I can check my new backpack. I need your help. Will you check my backpack and something to put on Boots' booboo? You have to say, "Backpack".

Boots: (sniffs) Say "Backpack.". Say "Backpack".

(Backpack theme plays)

Backpack:'' Backpack. Backpack. Backpack. Backpack. I'm the backpack loaded up with things and knick knacks too. Anything that you might need I got inside for you. Backpack. Backpack. Backpack. Backpack. Yeah. ''(song ends)

Backpack: This is the first time Dora has ever asked me for anything. Dora needs to find something to put on Boots' booboo. What can we use to put on Boots' booboo? (Cursor clicks on a band-aid)

Backpack: A soft bandage. Si! This will make a booboo feel better. Good thinking. Yum yum yum yum yum! Delicioso.

[Dora puts a bandage on Boots' booboo on his leg, kisses her hand, and puts a lip stamp on the bandage]

Boots: (sniffs and stops crying) Thanks, Dora. My booboo feels better. (Hugs Dora) Thanks, Backpack.

Backpack: Aw, de nada.

Dora: Boots, I have to bring my books back to the library before it closes.

Boots: I can help you.

Dora: Great. We've gotta get there fast. What's the quickest way to the library?

Boots: I don't know.

Dora: Lets stop and think. Who can we ask for help, when we don't know which way to go?

Map: Map!

Both: A map!

Dora: There's a map in my new backpack.

Map: I'm the map, I'm the map, I'm the map!

Dora: I need your help. Will you check the map and find the quickest way to the library? You have to say Map.

Boots: Say, "Map." Say "Map".

(Map zooms to the air)

(Map theme plays)

Map: ''If there's a place you gotta go, I'm the one you need to know. I'm the map. I'm the Map. I'm the Map if there's a place you gotta get. I can get you there I bet. I'm the Map. I'm the Map. I'm the Map. I'm the Map. I'm the Map. I'm the Map. I'm the Map. I'm the Map. I'm the Map. I'm the Map. I'm the Map! ''(Song ends)

Map: This is the first time that Dora has ever asked me for directions. I'm so proud. Dora needs to find the quickest way to library so she can return her books. Well, I know the quickest way to the library. First, you go over the troll bridge, then you climb up the big rock, and that's how we'll get to the library. So you tell Dora: Bridge, rock, library. Say it with me. Bridge, rock, library. Bridge, rock, library. Bridge, rock, (zooms to the screen) library!

Dora: How do we get to the library? Bridge, rock, library. First we cross the troll bridge, then we climb over the big rock, and that's how we'll get to the library. Thanks for helping. So first, we have to find the troll bridge. Do you see a bridge? Where?

(Cursor clicks it)

Boots: Yeah, there it is. There's the troll bridge.

Dora: Lets go return my books. (Travel song plays)

Dora: Come on, say it with us.

Both: ''Bridge, rock, library. Bridge, rock, library. Bridge, rock, library. Bridge, rock, library. Come on. Vamonos. Everybody lets go. ''

Boots: Come on, lets get to it.

Dora:'' I know that we can do it. Where are we going?''

Boots: ''Library. Where are we going.''

Dora: Library.

Both: Where are we going?

Fiesta Trio: Library.

Dora: Where are we going?

All: Library. (Dora & Boots laughing)

All: Library.

Boots: Dora, it looks like it's gonna rain.

Dora: I don't see any rain clouds. I need your help. If you see a rain cloud, yell, "rain cloud.". Do you see a rain cloud? (Rain cloud gets down) Where? (gets back up)

Boots: Yeah, here comes a rain cloud. We need something to keep us dry.

Dora: Where can we find something to keep us dry?

Boots: Look in the backpack. Look in the backpack.

Dora: Great idea. I need your help. Will you check my backpack for something that will keep us dry? Quick! Say "Backpack".

Backpack: Oh, no! Dora and Boots are gonna get wet.
