When the stars come out And it's night once more

It's time to go To the School of Roars

So wake up, monsters And stretch your paws

Jump up and go To the School of Roars

School of Roars School of Roars

It's time to go to The School of Roars

School of Roars, School of Roars

You growl and grow At the School of Roars

School of Roars, School of Roars

It's time to go to The School of Roars!

[all] Roar!

[narrator] It was another super snufflesome night,

and little monster Wingston was just waking up,

ready to go to the School Of Roars.

Roar! Ooh-ooh!

Oh-oh-oh!

Here we go, Wingston.

Wah! Haven't we got any fizzle-bicks?

We've run out, but monster porridge and splatberries are just as nice.

They'll make you taller.

[slurps] Mmm! This is nice!

Mm, mm, mm!

Argh! Am I taller yet?

Uh, I think you might be.

Now brush your fangs and get your backpack.

Yay, yay, yay!

-[toilet flushes] -[laughs]

Daddy, can you measure my height, please?

Right now? We have to get you to school.

Please!

I need to know how tall I am

now I've eaten all my porridge and splatberries.

[laughs] OK.

There you go. [chuckles]

Look, Daddy! I have grown!

Well, shiver my wings. Indeed you have.

-Come on, son. Off we go. -[giggles]

Rawr!

Make way! Wingston coming through!

[all] Wait for us, Wingston!

Good roaring, monsters. Roar!

[kids] Good roaring, Miss Grizzlesniff. Roar!

Miss Grizzlesniff, can we make a height chart today, please?

I want to show everyone how tall I am.

What a great idea, Wingston.

We can measure everyone

and then keep track of how much you've all grown throughout the year.

[all] Yay!

Oop! Does anyone have any ideas of how our height chart should look?

[all] Hmm.

It should have an ostrich on it.

They're really tall with long necks.

I think it should have a dinosaur on it.

They're even taller.

[all] A giraffe!

Giraffes are indeed very tall.

Are you all happy with the giraffe height chart?

-[all] Yeah! -Fantastic!

-Ta-da! -[all] Hooray!

-Who wants to go first? -Me, please, Miss.

Ooh, you're very tall, Yummble.

It's from all the yummy food I eat.

Yum, yum, yum!

Can I go next, Miss Grizzlesniff?

Of course! Stomp forward.

Oh, my claws! Wufflebump, you're even taller than Yummble.

Yeah!

-Grrr! -Hold still, Icklewoo. [laughs]

-There you go. -Yeah!

Meepa! Meepa! My turn!

Oh, look, Meepa. You're just as tall as Wufflebump.

Yay!

-And last but not least, Wingston. -Whoo-hoo!

-Well done, Wingston. -Yippee!

[gasps] Oh, no! I'm the shortest!

Rawr!

Oh!

Are you really, really sure you don't want to play, Wingston?

No, thanks. [sighs]

-Ready, Icklewoo? -Roar!

[all] Oh!

-Our ball! -How are we going to get it down?

I'll get it. I'm quite tall.

Roar!

Not as tall as me!

[both] Whoa!

I'm also the tallest. Stretch!

Oh.

Let me try. Grrr!

Whoa-ho-ho!

Oh! Grrrr!

Cheep, cheep, cheep!

[all] Oh!

Ooh, I've got an idea.

Wingston can fly up and get it.

[all] Wingston, can you help us, please?

I hit the ball so hard, it got stuck in the tree.

Can't you reach it? You're all so tall.

Not tall enough.

Can you get it for us, Wingston?

-[all] Please! -[sighs]

Grr! Here you go, Icklewoo.

[all] Hooray! Wingston saved the day!

-[bell rings] -Class time!

Me first!

That was monster-mazing, Wingston.

Why didn't you want to play batball with us?

Because I'm the shortest in the whole class.

I wanted to make the height chart to show you how tall I was,

but I turned out to be teeny tiny.

Oh.

Huh? Wingston's peg is the tallest of all

because he can fly.

[whispers] Miss, I've got a great idea

how we can make Wingston feel better.

Oh?

We can make a flying chart instead of a height chart.

That's a super snufflesome idea, Wufflebump.

Class, now that we know how tall we all are,

let's see how high you can fly.

Huh?

Presenting our magnificent monster flying chart.

OK, class, we're ready for take-off.

-[all] Yay! -Whoo-hoo!

Oh, great flying, Icklewoo.

Ooh, is it a bird? Is it a plane?

No, it's Wufflebump and Meepa.

We're both the same.

-Arrgh! Oh. -Good try, Yummble.

Now it's your turn, Wingston.

[all] Go, Wingston!

Hum! Here goes. Whoa!

-Whoo! -[all gasp]

Oh, my claws! Wingston, that's off the chart!

[all] Yay!

Miss, I can't fly very high,

but I would be the best on a "how much can you eat?" chart.

[all] Yummble!

[narrator] So, Winston learned that every little monster is unique

in their own special way.

And although he might not be the tallest in class,

he could definitely fly the highest.

Arrgh!
