Groark the dragon has learned a strange version of the song "Eensy Weensy Spider", but even when he learns it right, it leaves him wondering about the persistence of the little creature. Randel shares a version of a traditional Anansi the Spider story, with Groark adding humorous comments throughout. Then Groark gets to act out his own version of the old fable of "The Ant and the Grasshopper" with puppets, and a new twist to the moral of the story. The final song "You can Learn a Lot from a Bug!" summarizes the lessons learned from our multi-legged friends.
