I can't believe Baa-Chan is away for a week.

That's like forever.

She went to a bowling tournament. While she's away, she left me in charge.

That's so cool. Can I be in charge with you?

Sure. You, me and Pretzel. But there's a lot we have to do.

Make sure the water isn't dripping.

- Check. - Let fresh air in every day.

Check.

And water the flowers.

And check.

Baa-Chan said a wise ninja does his best

to care for everyone and everything he can.

That includes the most important job I have.

You get to take care of Baa-Chan's super tiny tree?

Yep. It's a bonsai tree.

It's almost 200 years old.

But it's so small. How can it be that old?

You take special care of it to keep it small.

It's been in our family that whole time.

What are these charms?

How we remember who took care of the tree.

The first one's for Baa-Chan's great-grandmother, Hiroko.

- She used to play the shamisen. - That's so cool.

There's a drum and a crane and a... Who's the fuzzy guy?

Wait, what?

Caterpillar!

Don't caterpillars eat trees?

We'd better put him in the grass so Baa-Chan's tree will be safe.

Where'd he go? He's gone!

If we don't find him, he'll eat the tree!

What do we do?

Don't worry. We can save Baa-Chan's tree. We just have to do it... as ninjas.

You're right.

Hello, ninja!

Yes, hello.

Wesley!

Georgie!

Ninjas hop.

Ninjas chop.

Ninjas love to belly flop!

Ninjas land on ninja feet. These three ninjas can't be beat!

Hello, ninja.

Kuma?

Where is she?

I guess she's not here. But that's OK.

- We just have to do this ourselves. - Yeah!

- So what do we do? - Catch that caterpillar

and save my family's bonsai.

But how? There are so many trees here.

It'll be impossible to find the one you're... Hachi-mama!

Your grandmother's little tree is really big.

Look!

- Is that Hiroko's shamisen? - I bet it's been here since Baa-Chan's

- great-grandmother took care of the tree. - It sounds amazing.

The charms!

They're moving.

This tree is their home and it's our responsibility.

We'd better find that caterpillar before he eats this tree.

Awesome landing, Pretzel.

There he is!

Look out!

Sweet shamisen solo, Pretzel.

Come on! We got to stop that caterpillar before he tries to wreck anything else.

Where'd he go?

You can't hide from us.

Thanks, Pretzel.

Georgie, there he is!

He sure is fast for a bug.

Now where'd he go? I don't see him anywhere.

Wesley, listen.

What is that?

A taiko drum.

Baa-Chan said her Uncle Akiyo used to play it at festivals.

Do you think I could try?

Wow. Thank you.

- Georgie. - One, two, three, four!

Pretty good, huh?

Whoa!

Oh, no, your great-uncle's drum! What do we do?

We're ninjas, remember? I call on...

moves of the monkey!

Come on, let's go!

We've got to save that drum!

Got it!

That was close.

And not a moment too soon.

We've still got to catch that caterpillar. This way!

Whoa, Wesley! It's a paper crane.

That was made by Baa-Chan's mother. But look.

I've got you now!

Georgie, don't!

Oh, no! He's falling.

I'll get him.

Gotcha!

Wait, you're safe now.

You know what?

With all the running and shouting, I think we scared him.

We're not scary. Are we?

We are if you're little.

I think this guy's just a baby.

Wait, why are you giving him a leaf?

Weren't we trying to stop him wrecking the tree?

I don't think he was trying to. He was just hiding from us.

Hey, little buddy.

Do you want this? It's yummy.

It's like Baa-Chan said.

A wise ninja cares for everyone and everything he can.

Look!

He's sleepy.

When I'm sleepy, I like to snuggle up in a blanket.

We could sing him a lullaby. But where are we gonna get a blanket?

Thank you, great bonsai tree. I know a bedtime rhyme.

Baa-Chan used to tell me one her grandmother told her.

The day's been long and it's time for bed, so you can rest your sleepy head.

Dream big dreams, think happy things.

Rest well for the wonders tomorrow will bring.

You know what? I bet, when it's your turn, you take awesome care of this tree, too.

Thanks, Georgie.

Baa-Chan!

We missed you.

I missed you, too, kiddos.

Looks like your Baa-Chan's still the best bowler in the tri-state area!

Baa-Chan, come see!

Our bonsai tree looks happy.

It is.

And look at that! That was a caterpillar.

The little guy's been sleeping for a while.

He's not sleeping. He's changing.

Changing? Into what?

Whoa!

What?

Our little caterpillar became a butterfly!

That's right. You must have taken very good care of it.

Just like the flowers.

Yeah, I guess we helped it bloom.

But we did it...

Like ninjas!
