Tom & Jerry: The Movie Read-Along

gg
Narrator: This is a story about the world's famous cartoon cat and mouse, Tom & Jerry. They always had a strong rivalry for each other, but one day, they had to put it aside to survive in the big city and find a home, and then they had to help an orphan escape from her greedy aunt, and reunite her with her father. If you wanna hear how they did that, you can read along with me in this book, if you like. And when you hear this noise, [cymbals crash] it's time to turn the page. Let's begin.... It all began when Tom was planning to move house with his owner. "Hurry up, Tom. We're leaving." Tom got into the car, but Jerry wanted to go too. Tom tried to get rid of Jerry, but he ended up thrown out alongside him. He sealed Jerry up in his mousehole, but by the time he got back outside, his owner had left without him! He raced after them, but ended up in front of a fierce bulldog, and ended up chased back to the empty house. He had to spend the night alone in the abandoned house. The following day, however, a demolition crew came to knock the house down! The bulldog managed to escape in time, but Tom & Jerry weren't so lucky - the wrecking ball wrecked the house, and threw them into the air and into a tree. They watched as the house crumbled to pieces. They were homeless.

Kyan: Tom was mad with Jerry, and set off to find a new home of his own. But Jerry followed behind him. Tom eventually reached the end of his tether, until he and Jerry met a street dog named Puggsy, and his friend, a flea called Frankie da Flea. "I've been on the streets two years now. My owners left me behind when they moved." And even Tom & Jerry spoke, as if by magic. "You talked!" they both said to each other in shock. Frankie and Puggsy explained that Tom and Jerry had to get along and be friends to survive.

Lars: It seemed that Tom & Jerry would have to work together to get a home of their own. But Tom, unfortunately, wasn't so keen on the idea he shoud be friends with Jerry. "A cat and a mouse... friends? That's disgusting. No way!" Puggsy and Frankie went to the alley to get something to eat, but by the time Tom managed to subdue Jerry, and get into the alley, they had already gone. But he got roped into a crazy dance number with some mean tough alley cats. Tom snuck away, but the Alley cats saw him, and chased him, and us. Luckily, Jerry thought up a good plan which involved a sewer lid. He opened it, and all the alley cats fell down into the sewer.

Foz: Though Tom was grateful to Jerry for Saving him from the alley cats, he still was bitter towards him. Still, we followed Tom & Jerry as they went across a bridge. Suddenly, we heard footsteps. We hid, and we saw a little girl running across the bridge. We followed the little girl, and she was surprised to see us, as well as Tom & Jerry. We found out that the girl's name was Robyn Starling, and she said her mother had died when she was young, and her father had supposedly been killed in an avalanche in Tibet. She explained she was going there to find him and get away from her mean aunt Figg. "She’s taken over the house! She moved me to the attic and gave my room to her dog, Ferdinand!"
