Welcome to the Adventure!

Hey there! Today, we’re going on a fun adventure in a town with lots of exciting things happening. Let’s learn about erosion, teamwork, and problem-solving!

What is Erosion?

Have you ever seen water flowing down a hill and wondered where it’s going? That’s erosion! Erosion happens when water washes away dirt and rocks. It’s like when you build a sandcastle at the beach, and the waves wash it away.

Fixing the Cliff

In our story, the water was causing the dirt to erode, and the cliff was crumbling. But don’t worry! Our friends came up with a plan to fix it. They decided to dig a big hole so the water would go into the hole instead of over the cliff. Teamwork makes everything better!

Using Bark to Stop Erosion

Our friends found some tree bark and discovered that it could help stop erosion. When they put the bark on the ground, the water flowed over it without washing the dirt away. It’s like using an umbrella to keep dry in the rain!

Teamwork Saves the Day

When things didn’t go as planned, our friends didn’t give up. They tried stacking the bark differently, and it worked! The water flowed from one piece of bark to another, keeping the dirt safe. Hooray for teamwork!

Helping a Friend in Need

Later, Zack had a problem with his wheel. He couldn’t drive to the new road opening because his wheel was broken. But his friend Flynn, the airplane, came to help. Flynn tried to carry Zack, but it was too heavy. So, Flynn flew Zack’s wheel to get it fixed. Friends helping friends is the best!

Filling the Hole

Oh no! There was a big hole in the trail because our friends needed dirt for their project. Zerbies kept falling into the hole! They decided to fill it with something big and light. They found a log that was just the right size and covered it with dirt. Problem solved!

Learning and Having Fun

Our adventure taught us about erosion, teamwork, and how to solve problems. Remember, when things don’t go as planned, keep trying and work together. You’ll find a solution!

Keep Exploring!

Now that you’ve learned about erosion and teamwork, why not explore your backyard or a nearby park? See if you can spot any signs of erosion or think of ways to solve little problems you find. Have fun and keep learning!

  • Have you ever built something, like a sandcastle, that got washed away by water? How did it make you feel, and what did you do next?
  • Can you think of a time when you worked with friends or family to solve a problem? What was the problem, and how did teamwork help you find a solution?
  • Imagine you are on an adventure like the one in the story. What would you do if you found a big hole in your path? How would you solve the problem?
  1. Build Your Own Erosion Experiment: Gather some soil, a small tray, and a cup of water. Create a small hill with the soil on one side of the tray. Slowly pour water over the hill and watch what happens. Can you see the soil moving? Try placing different materials like leaves or small pieces of bark on the hill to see if they help stop the erosion. Discuss with your friends or family what worked best and why.

  2. Teamwork Challenge: Find a small problem in your home or classroom, like organizing a messy drawer or building a small fort with cushions. Work with a friend or family member to solve the problem together. Talk about how you used teamwork to make it easier and more fun. What did you learn about working with others?

  3. Nature Walk Observation: Go on a walk in your backyard or a nearby park with an adult. Look for signs of erosion, like soil washed away from a path or a small ditch formed by water. Take a notebook and draw what you see. Think about how you might stop erosion in those areas. Share your ideas with your class or family.

Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript, removing any informal language and maintaining a more polished tone:

[Music]

Welcome to the scenic area of town. Look at the water flowing down the hill. Where is it all coming from? Ah, it’s erosion! The water is washing the dirt away. This might not be a good situation. I need to address this issue.

Make sure to clean up, Walter; I prefer not to be dirty. No problem, Goldie.

Hello, Walker. Hi, Cody. Oh, hi, Zack! I can wash your vehicle, but first, you need to wait for Goldie to finish.

No problem, Walter.

Hey, all the water is coming from this Derby Wash. The water is causing the dirt to erode.

What does “erode” mean?

It means the water washes the dirt away, like this.

It seems to be happening all along here. I guess I should close the Derby Wash.

No need for that; we just need to solve this problem. But first, we should fix the cliff.

Uh-oh. Let’s fill that in.

All fixed! It looks as good as new. No more crumbling cliff.

However, if more water comes down here, it could happen again.

That’s okay; I have a solution. Come on!

This is my idea: we dig a big hole right here so the water goes into the hole instead of over the cliff.

Sounds good to me!

I’ll get to work.

That was fun, but now I’m quite dirty.

Let’s test it out!

I’ll wash you clean, and we’ll see if this idea works.

Yay, that’s fun!

Let me dump my dirt.

Okay, serve me a wash!

Alright, I’m ready for the wash.

Alright, turning it on.

Here comes the water!

It’s working! The water is flowing down here and into the hole instead of over the cliff.

Oh no, the hole is filling up quickly!

Well, he’s almost done washing.

Uh-oh, maybe we shouldn’t have put all this water so close to the edge.

Why not?

I think the water might weaken the dirt, and this whole section could wash away.

Oh no!

I need to stop it!

Well, I guess that didn’t work.

Can you fix that?

Yes, I can fix it.

Good, because this is a disaster!

There! Good as new!

Wow, Phil, that’s a great job! Construction services can build anything out of dirt.

But how do we ensure it stays built and doesn’t wash away like before?

Answers are everywhere!

Good idea, Walter! Let’s look around.

Let’s check over by this apple tree.

Look at all the apples!

Oh, hey Walter, come over here and look at this!

What is it?

It’s bark that must have fallen off the tree.

Maybe that will help! What do you think, Phil?

I found some apples!

I don’t think apples will help in this situation, Phil.

Tell you what, Walter, why don’t you spray some water on that bark and see what happens?

Oh, look at that! The water just goes down. The bark is keeping the ground dry.

I think that’s what we need!

Hey Phil, come over here and look at this!

What is it?

It’s the bark! We’re going to take it back to the Derby Wash.

Okay, I can do that!

Alright, lifting the bark. Easy does it!

Okay, I got it! What do I do with it?

We’re going to take it to the wash station.

Okay, let’s go!

Are you sure we don’t need any apples?

We’re okay.

So how’s this going to work, Zack?

The water will drain out of the Derby Wash and trickle down here. We put the bark here so the dirt won’t get wet and washed away. The water will flow along the bark down to the cliff.

Let’s try it out!

I need another wash anyway!

Okay, washing!

Oh no, wait! Stop!

What happened?

The water isn’t flowing!

It just pours in between those pieces of bark.

We’ll just have to try again.

What do we do differently?

Maybe we could stack them on top of each other.

Oh yeah!

What if we put this one underneath and then like that?

Then the water will flow from this one to that one and down over the cliff.

Let’s see if this works!

Alright, turning on the water.

Oh, there it is!

Hey, it’s working!

It’s going from one piece of bark to the other and then down over the edge.

No more erosion!

Well, another problem solved, Zack!

Good work! When you have a problem, just call Zack!

See you later!

Hey, look at all the water splashing down here at the bottom of the hill!

It’s like a second Derby Wash!

This is great! I’m going to get in here and wash myself too!

Oh, I better hurry up or I’ll miss that new road opening!

Okay, don’t get distracted, Zack.

That’s a big tree!

Going around a big tree…

I think I might have broken my wheel!

I wonder if there’s anyone around who can fix it.

Whoa! I can’t drive too far like this or I’ll break it completely!

Oh, I know!

Sector Chase, come in!

Chase, this is Chase. What do you need, Zack?

I need to get my wheel fixed. Is there anyone around?

No can do! Everybody’s in Derby Town for the new road opening. You have to get here; it’s going to be amazing!

Well, I can’t get there because my wheel is broken.

Oh, there’s got to be somebody around!

Oh, hey, there’s Flynn!

Flynn, over here!

Zack, is that you?

Yes, down here!

Hello, Zack! Why aren’t you in Derby Town for the new road opening?

I can’t get there because my wheel is broken. I’m not supposed to drive too far on it like this or else it’ll get worse, and then Mika won’t be able to fix it.

Let me take a look.

Yeah, it looks pretty broken.

What should I do?

I have no idea; I’m a plane, not a mechanic.

I think Mika is the only one who can fix wheels around here.

So I have to get back to Derby Town to get to Mika. Could you help me with that?

Of course, Zack! I was going to see the new road; we could go together.

How about I carry you on my wings?

Okay, that’s a great idea!

Alright, all aboard!

You just want me to drive up on your wing?

Maybe… wait, wouldn’t that break?

You’re right; you should go a little further back.

Okay, I’m going to go further back.

Okay, good to go!

Okay, I’m just getting on this way.

Careful!

Okay, sit up higher, Zack.

How’s that?

You did it!

Now we go and take off from the runway!

Welcome to the Flynn Express! This is your captain speaking, Captain Flynn. Next stop: Derby Town! Ready, set, turbo!

When are you taking off?

I’m usually in the air by now, but I have to stop.

Hold on!

What’s wrong?

I think you might be a little too heavy.

Too heavy?

Okay, let’s try again, and I’ll think lighter.

Okay!

I’m thinking lighter.

I don’t know if that’s working, Zack.

I’m going to breathe out.

Okay!

Ready?

Still don’t know if it’s working, Zack.

What if I tried lifting myself a little bit?

Still feels the same.

I guess this isn’t working.

We’re going to have to try again.

Maybe I could just fly your wheel back.

So your wheel popped back together, Zack?

Is it fixed?

No, Mika has to use special glue on it, or it’ll just go wonky again.

Okay, well I’ll fly the wheel back to Mika. She can fix it, and then I can fly it back to you before the road opening happens.

I think so, but I’ll need to leave soon.

Alright, here I go!

Going to the top of the runway.

Watch this, Zack!

I can’t wait!

Ready, set, turbo!

Go, Flynn!

I don’t think it’s working, Zack.

You didn’t take off, Flynn.

Yeah, I ran out of runway.

I guess that plan didn’t work either.

Was my wheel too heavy?

You see, I’m a super light Zurby. Flying is all about being light, so the heavier you are, the harder it is to fly.

That’s right! Trucks and Zerbies like me are made to have much heavier parts because we’re designed to be strong so that we don’t break—at least not most of the time.

I’m really surprised at how heavy your wheel is. My wheels are super light, but I only use them for takeoffs and landings.

What about my wheels? Can I borrow one of your wheels?

You don’t need them when you’re in the sky.

That’s true, but how would I take off without them?

Oh, yeah!

I thought that was a good solution, but you’re right; you can’t take off and land without your wheels.

Wait! Yes, I can!

How?

I use my floats for taking off and landing in the water!

Oh!

I’ll head to the lake, put on my floats, and carry one of my wheels back to you.

Okay, great plan!

Here it is: Zurbytown Lake and my floats!

Hello, floats!

Alright, just put those on.

Wheel balanced on my wings. Check!

Alright, here I go!

Taking off! Ready, set, turbo!

Now to circle back around Zurbytown Airport and drop this wheel off.

Zack, hello! I’m down here!

Alright, special delivery: one tire coming up!

Thank you!

Oh, it’s all the way over there!

Do you need any help down there?

No, that’s okay; I can get it.

It’s so hard to drive without a wheel!

How’s it coming, Zack?

Okay, I made it to the wheel; I just have to put it on.

Have you got it on yet, Zack?

Okay, I got the tire on! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I’ll get your tire right back to you as soon as my wheel is fixed.

No problem! Always glad to help! And remember, Zack, my light airplane wheels aren’t made for tough truck driving, so be gentle!

Oh, okay! Thanks again, Flynn!

Next stop: Derby Town!

Gently!

Oh yeah, gently!

Careful, Zack!

Oh, we’re right away!

Careful, careful! Easy, easy!

Alright, right, right!

Slow! I keep forgetting that.

[Music]

Hey, there’s a hole here! I’m pretty sure this wasn’t here this morning.

Hi, Zack! What are you doing in our hole?

What’s your hole doing in the middle of the trail?

Well, you know us construction Zerbies; we always need more dirt.

Well, that’s dirt we took for our construction project.

But why here in the middle of the trail?

Because this trail has some of the best dirt! Just look at it; it’s so soft and easy to dig!

If you say so, but I still don’t think we should leave a hole in the middle of the trail.

Why?

Because Zerbies will drive right into it!

I did…

Yeah, but I think Zerbies will see the hole and drive around it.

Oh, here comes somebody!

Now, there wasn’t a hole here this morning!

Well, that’s just one Zerby; I’m sure the next Zerby will…

There wasn’t a hole here with Trevor at this party!

Hey, Megs! AJ! I guess we should probably fill it.

Okay, I’m convinced we should definitely fill the hole before anyone else falls in!

Oh no!

This is just getting ridiculous!

Alright, everybody out of the hole!

Here, take my wheels!

So what are we going to fill the hole with, Rex?

Hmm… well, we can’t fill it with dirt because we made the hole to get dirt, so we’ll have to fill it with something else.

Filling holes is a construction service’s job!

What do you normally do?

Well, we can use gravel. Come on!

Hi, Sandy!

Hi, Sandy!

Hi there, Zerbies! One load of gravel, please!

You got it! Just pull up in front!

Okay, pulling up!

Whoa! How’s this?

That’s great!

Okay, here it comes!

Is that enough?

Yep, that’s good!

Alright, you’re all set, Rex! See you later, Sandy!

Thank you! See you later, buddy!

A little further… almost there!

Okay, that’s good! You can dump it now!

Huh, it didn’t fill the hole!

Looks like we need more loads.

Well, that’s no good! It’ll take all day to fill the hole!

Why is that a problem?

Oh, hey! I fell in the hole again!

Right, we have to fill this hole faster because Zerbies are going to keep falling in until it’s fixed!

Here, Spike, let me help you!

Okay, thank you!

Okay, one more time!

Yeah, thanks, Dad!

Okay, let’s try again!

What should we do?

Maybe we should get something big enough to fill this hole that we can take in one trip!

Oh yeah!

How big is that?

Well, the hole is a little taller than me and a little longer than me, so something about that size!

Let’s do it!

Can you see anything we can use from up there?

Not yet! Go faster!

Oh no, wait! I see something!

Where?

That rock!

Oh, I see it!

It looks like it’s the right size!

It looks a little smaller than you, Zack.

Yeah, and it’s as tall as me but not as long, so maybe we need to get a few more this size.

Okay, let’s load this one up!

I’ll tip backwards, and you push it into my bucket!

Okay, you got it!

Bucket going up!

Hey, Rex!

Okay, tipping!

Okay, go ahead and load it up, Zack!

Okay, right!

It’s not working, Rex!

What’s wrong?

I’m pushing it, but it’s not moving!

I think it’s too heavy, Rex!

Oh yeah, it’s not moving at all!

Looks like we need a different plan!

I don’t understand; it’s smaller than me!

Rocks are much heavier than Zerbies! Even a rock smaller than you can weigh much more than you!

I guess hauling a rock back might be a little tough. Let’s go look for something else!

Pine needles? They take a lot of work to gather up enough!

Hmm… let’s see… what about…

Hey, Rex, I found something over here!

You did? Coming!

Where are you, Zack?

I’m here behind this log!

Oh, that’s pretty good!

I know! It’s as tall as me and just a bit longer than me! It’s the perfect size!

But I don’t know, Rex; a log the size of a Zerby has got to be super heavy!

Well, let’s find out!

Okay, tip it towards me!

I lifted it!

Wow, you did it!

How heavy is it?

Well, it’s definitely heavier than a Zerby, but much lighter than the rock!

Come on, let’s put it in the hole!

Yeah, okay, let’s do it!

Backing up… okay, just a little bit further!

I’ll tell you when!

Okay!

Hold on… and right there!

Now what?

We just need a little bit of dirt to cover up the top and pack it down!

Great!

Dumping!

Is that enough?

Yeah, looks great!

You can’t even tell the hole was there!

Another job well done!

That’s great, Rex! Now Zerbies can drive along this trail without falling into any more holes!

Another hole!

Hi, Zack! We needed some more dirt; after all, this is the best dirt around!

I’m ready to load you up, Rex!

Yay!

Oh, well, can someone help me out of the hole?

Yeah, it’s like a cake! If dirt were a cake, this is what it would be like to build with a cake!
