It was Sunday, and Pete's friends had come to play.
They were rocking to a new song when, beep beep beep.
There was noise coming from across the street.
Wise Old Owl had a view from his tree.
Pete said, Hey, Owl, what do you see?
Owl said, All I see are green shoes and a red hat.
Pete answered, Sounds like my kind of cat.
Pete could not imagine who this new guy could be.
I really hope it's a new friend for me.
On Monday, Pete wanted to say hi, but he was feeling kind of shy.
So he just rode by and by and by and by,
until finally, Pete got to meet the new guy.
[CRASH] Pete said, I've never met anyone quite like you.
You seem like a duck and like a beaver too.
The new guy said to Pete, Hi, my name is Gus.
Glad to meet you!
I'm a platypus!
Pete said, You're not like me, and I am not like you, but
I think being different is really very cool.
On Tuesday, Pete and Gus took a walk down the street.
They came to Squirrel, who was playing in a tree.
Hi, Gus, said, Squirrel.
Climbing is easy, try and see.
Gus gave the tree a try.
But the branch was way too high.
I wish I could climb like you, but climbing is something I just can't do.
Pete said, Don't be sad.
Don't be blue.
There is something everyone can do.
On Wednesday Pete and Gus took a walk down the street.
They came to Pete's friend Grumpy Toad who said, Come play leapfrog with me.
Jumping is easy.
Try and see.
Gus jumped and leaped, but he couldn't get over Toad or Pete.
I wish I could jump like you, but jumping is something I just can't do.
Pete said, Don't be sad.
Don't be blue.
There is something everyone can do.
On Thursday, Pete and Gus took a walk down the street.
Soon they saw Octopus who said, Come juggle with me.
Juggling is easy.
Try and see.
I wish I could juggle like you, but
juggling is something I just can't do.
Pete said, Don't be sad.
Don't be blue.
There is something everyone can do.
On Friday, Pete and Gus took a walk down the street.
Gus said, I can't juggle or jump or climb a tree.
It's no fun around here for me.
On Saturday, Pete hoped Gus would come out to play.
I wish Gus wasn't sad.
I wish Gus wasn't blue.
I wish there was something we could do.
Just then, Pete heard a groovy sound.
It was coming from across the street.
Gus was rocking to his own beat.
Sweet!
Pete said, Check out Gus the platypus!
He found something cool he can do with us.

He's not sad, he's not blue.
Gus found something
that everyone can do.
